Abstract

Abstract: PURPOSE：In view of the present problems of clinical skill examination, in order to evaluate the candidate's clinical ability comprehensively and objectively, we constructed and implemented dental objective structured clinical examination system mainly based on computer. METHODS：This system was a multi-station examination which had 3 parts and 8 sites. The stations were composed of a variety of testing methods, including choice questions, auxiliary examinations, case analysis and basic operation skill. RESULTS: By using the computerized dental objective structured clinical examination system, we could smoothly test the ability of stomatological students in a relatively short time. The clinical ability, learning ability and professional quality could be evaluated more objectively in many ways. CONCLUSIONS：This system help students adapt to early examination of medical practitioners, improve students' clinical skills, and is worthy of wide application.
