Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Neurologic physical exam(NPE) scoreafter 2 weeks clinical clerkship rotation.

NPE score is consist of 6 neurologic examination parts; cranial nerve, motor, sensory, cerebellar function, gait. Each part has 1 points, so NPE score ranges from 0 to 6. NPE score of students is evaluated by neurologist viewing video clips which recorded during the last day of 2 weeks clerkship rotation.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Satisfaction of students for VRNETafter 2 weeks clinical clerkship rotation.

Satisfaction of VRNET are evaluated by students' answer to the question below with Likert scale (0 to 5) after completion examination of standard patient.

"I am satisfied with VRNET for neurologic examination training. 0 (not at all)---1----2----3-----4-----5 (very helpful)"

Reality of VRNET by studentsafter 2 weeks clinical clerkship rotation.

Reality of VRNET are evaluated by students' answer to the question below with Likert scale (0 to 5) after completion examination of standard patient.

"VRNET is very realistic. 0 (not at all)---1----2----3-----4-----5 (very realistic)"

Evaluation of students by standardized patientsafter 2 weeks clinical clerkship rotation.

Evaluation of students by standard patients is also using Likert scale (0 to 5) based on the pre-made check lists.

"How do you feel as a standard patient that the student did good job?" 0 (not at all)---1----2----3-----4-----5 (very competent)
