Abstract:
Teaching evaluation is an important measure to test the teaching quality. In order to better achieve the training objectives among international medical students based on the specific conditions of foreign students and the characteristics of Human Parasitology, a process-based assessment and evaluation system has been established for international medical students. The process assessment highlights the characteristics of assessment process, diversified forms and inquires of test questions. Following implementation of process assessment, the proportion of excellence (examination scores of 90 and higher) improved from 3.25% (10/308) to 13.09% (50/382) (t = 5.995, P < 0.001) and the proportion of good marks (examination scores of 80 to 89) increased from 18.83% (58/308) to 36.13% (138/382) (t = 7.505, P < 0.001) during the semester assessment among international medical students at five grades, while the proportion of failure in examination pass (examination scores of below 60) reduced from 12.34% (38/308) to 3.24% (10/382) (t = 7.303, P < 0.000 1), indicating that the process-based assessment and evaluation system improves the examination score of Human Parasitology among international medical students and the teaching quality of Human Parasitology.
