Instrument Development to Improve Learning Process Assessment of Ear Nose Throat Specialist Education Program Student

Abstract

---The need for ear, nose, throat – head and neck surgery specialists is still under ideal conditions. Until now, the number of these specialist doctors is around 1200, which so the ratio of doctors to a population of 1: 2000 is not ideal. The need for doctors is not comparable with the study period of medical / specialist students. This is a concern. The learning process that was followed turned out to be unable to measure the resulting learner performance. With this background, research needs to be carried out to reveal instruments capable of assessing the learning process of students. This research aims to describe the appropriate instrument to measure the student learning process. The study used a case study research design, with research subjects being doctor spesialist education program students. The results of the phase I research showed that 1) 64.4% of the students understood the learning competencies and indicators; 2) 49.3% of students thought the learning was not implemented as planned; 3) 87.4% of students think that the assessment process is only done by means of a check list. The results of the second phase of research showed that 1) 74.7% of students understood the learning competencies and indicators; 2) 66.3% of students thought the learning was not implemented as planned; 3) 54.8% of students think that the process assessment is only done by means of a check list. The average learning outcome for group II was higher than group I. Recommendations for related parties to be able to understand and be able to supervise and direct the development of instruments to improve the quality of learning.
