Lack of agreement between subjective ratings of instructors and objective testing of knowledge acquisition in a urological continuing medical education course
Abstract
Objective scores from multiple-choice questions before and after a postgraduate course were compared to subjective ratings of the instructors at a 3-day seminar. The objective mean scores after the course were significantly higher than the scores before the course (p less than 0.0001). There was no correlation between test results and subjective ratings of instructors.
