    Development of a competency-based clinical assessment instrument for exit level oral hygiene students at the University of Western Cape
    (BMC, 2022) Naidoo, Magandhree; Brijlal, Priscilla; Cader, R.
    Seminal to the process of a health sciences curriculum evaluation is the periodic review of clinical assessment instruments that measure competency. An assessment of quality is facilitated by using a well-structured, authentic and reliable instrument. This process rests on designing and measuring the instrument against a sound framework and validating it for scientific merit. This paper documents the pedagogy and the process taken in developing an improved formative competency-based assessment instrument for the final year students of the Bachelor of Oral Health program (BOH) at the University of the Western Cape (UWC).
