Development and Implementation of an Objective Structured Teaching Exercise (OSTE) to Evaluate Improvement in Feedback Skills Following a Faculty Development Workshop

Abstract

Results suggest that an OSTE may be sensitive to changes in preceptor skill level for skills that are relatively easy to incorporate immediately into practice. Lack of differences in other skill areas may be due to lack of sensitivity of the measure or to need for practice and reflection before changes in performance on other feedback skills are evident.
