Online learning is becoming a fundamental modality of learning in medical education, and can be of great help during global crisis like the current COVID-19 pandemic. The MOOC (massive open online course) mode of e-learning is increasing its penetration worldwide, as a valid teaching approach to reach large populations. A major challenge in clinical education is the assessment of medical students and residents in clinical settings, and there is substantial evidence that the current situation requires improvement. The goal of this study was to evaluate the quality dimensions of a MOOC titled "Learning assessment in clinical settings," developed by three Mexican universities in the Coursera platform. A mixed-method study design was used to assess the quality dimensions of the MOOC in two phases: pilot and implementation. The best-rated aspects were learning resources and pedagogical perspective, and those with opportunity for improvement were collaboration and time management. Assessment might be learned through a MOOC format, especially for participants willing to engage with educational technology and self-direction.
在线学习正成为医学教育中的一种基本学习方式，并且在当前新冠疫情这样的全球危机期间会有很大帮助。电子学习的大规模开放在线课程（MOOC）模式在全球范围内的渗透率不断提高，是一种面向大量人群的有效教学方法。临床教育中的一个主要挑战是对医学生和住院医师在临床环境中的评估，并且有大量证据表明当前的情况需要改进。本研究的目的是评估由三所墨西哥大学在Coursera平台上开发的名为“临床环境中的学习评估”的MOOC的质量维度。采用混合方法研究设计分两个阶段评估MOOC的质量维度：试点阶段和实施阶段。评分最高的方面是学习资源和教学视角，而有待改进的方面是协作和时间管理。评估可以通过MOOC形式来学习，特别是对于愿意参与教育技术和自主学习的参与者而言。
