Özet:

 


Objectives: The purpose of this study was to examine the
relationships between dental students’ performance on weekly practical task
assessments, midterm practical exam and final practical exam in the preclinical
restorative dentistry course. 

Methods: Scores of final
practical exam, midterm practical exam and weekly practical task assessments in
the restorative dentistry preclinical course in the half year of the third year
of the curriculum at Biruni University Faculty of Dentistry were compared. It
was hypothesized that students that performed highly on weekly task assessments
would perform highly on the midterm and final practical exams.


Results: The
results showed that the weekly practical task assessment scores were correlated
with the midterm practical exam and final practical exam scores and were a
positive predictor. However, final practical exam scores were significantly
lower than midterm practical exam and weekly practical task assessment scores.


Conclusions: The quality assessments of students’ weekly
tasks would be an effective predictor to assess student’s preclinical
performance. Thus, it would be recommended that integrating weekly task
assessment into the preclinical restorative dentistry curriculum as an
effective assessment tool.
