To implement and evaluate an assessment system based on the 1998 Center for the Advancement of Pharmaceutical Education's (CAPE) Outcomes for students in advanced pharmacy practice experiences (APPEs).
The system requires each preceptor to create a summative assessment tool by choosing the most important 20-30 CAPE competencies and sub-elements necessary for his/her pharmacy practice with each to be scored by him/her on a 4-point scale from "exceeds expectations" to "below expectations." Students' grades are determined by an examination committee based on the preceptors' assessments. The system contains a mechanism to assist students with competency deficits and permits a student's yearlong performance in the APPE program to be considered when assigning grades for individual APPE courses.
The assessment system permits each student's performance in individual APPE courses to be mapped to the CAPE competencies for grading purposes. It permits class performance in an APPE program to be mapped to the CAPE competencies for quality assurance and school planning.
An assessment system based on the 1998 CAPE Educational Outcomes competencies has been successfully introduced for students in APPE training.
为药学高级实践经验(APPEs)的学生实施并评估基于1998年药学教育促进中心(CAPE)成果的评估系统。
该系统要求每位带教老师通过选择其药学实践所需的20 - 30项最重要的CAPE能力和子要素来创建一份总结性评估工具,每项能力和子要素由其按照从“远超期望”到“低于期望”的4分制进行评分。学生成绩由考试委员会根据带教老师的评估来确定。该系统包含一种机制,用于帮助有能力缺陷的学生,并在为个别APPE课程评定成绩时,允许考虑学生在APPE项目中的全年表现。
该评估系统允许将每位学生在个别APPE课程中的表现映射到CAPE能力上以进行评分。它允许将APPE项目中的班级表现映射到CAPE能力上以进行质量保证和学校规划。
已成功为APPE培训的学生引入了基于1998年CAPE教育成果能力的评估系统。
