Abstract
Background
Providing effective feedback to the candidates during Objective Structured Clinical Examination is essential in helping to improve their future performances. We were faced with a challenge to develop a solution which maximises the quality and quantity of feedback examiners can provide in one minute allowed at the end of each station.
Objective
Develop a quicker and simpler way to give constructive feedback using mind maps on iPads.
Methods
As a first step we developed standardised marking schemes and corresponding mind maps. We decided to choose from commercially available apps to generate mind map template onto iPads at the piloting stage. We tried many Apps before choosing FormEntry which allows selection of various options in a format suitable for use with mind maps.
Results
We will present Pros and Cons of a few commercially available form generating Apps and share the technique of Form Creation on FormEntry. We are collecting pilot data on the amount and quality of feedback collected using iPads versus paper marking sheets which will also be presented in the conference.
Conclusions
We will share our pilot data and initial experience, along with models to implement the use of mind maps using iPads. The initial experience proves that the examiner can provide crisp and effective feedback to the candidate using the mind maps on iPads with much ease.
