Abstract

Online teaching due to pandemic Covid-19 significantly impacted to medical education institution. In this study, we described our first experience of using mixed online student assessment methods in the setting of Covid-19 and evaluated student’s perceptions about the examination, as challenges and future works. Our institution made an adjustment in student assessment format by randomizing 60-MCQ items performed by Google form, supervised simultaneously using Zoom application, and completing the assessment with an online oral examination where 2 lecturers gave 2 or 3 questions based on modules topic to each student. A limited number of MCQ items, network connectivity problems, and fraud risk were reported during the online MCQ examination. While scheduling oral examination earlier, difference perception in lecturer’s scoring and bias risk due to items leakage were found as challenges in an online oral examination. These challenges will be considered to design a proper assessment method in near future works.
