Would assessing skills by discussion as a group work in the medical diagnostic field? It demands everyone's participation because the technical or skill time is total participation per student, and by group assessment via discussion, all students benefit with what to do, and what not to do to perform the skill. Benefits are learning the equipment, improving hands on skills as well as learning protocols for exam. please comment as to whether or not this is set up for failure for students who are for example "shy".
