Generic skills scale
TD
There was no evidence of a difference in student perceptions about the capacity for the TD or OFC course to sharpen their analytic skills (Q6), develop their ability to work as a team member (Q11), improve confidence about tackling unfamiliar problems (Q12), improve communication skills (Q13) or develop their ability to plan work (Q28). On the GS scale students felt that the OFC approach was significantly less beneficial in terms of helping develop their problem skills when compared to the TD group (Q2, P = 0.048).
