To determine recognition given for outstanding teaching, service, and scholarship at US colleges and schools of pharmacy, the types of awards given, and the process used to select the recipients.
A self-administered questionnaire was made available online in 2006 to deans at 89 colleges and schools of pharmacy.
Sixty-four usable responses (72%) were obtained. An award to acknowledge teaching excellence was most commonly reported (92%), followed by an award for adjunct/volunteer faculty/preceptors (79%). The majority of the institutions (31 out of 58) reported offering 1 teaching award annually. The 2 most common methods for selecting the recipient of the teaching award were by student vote and by college/school committee vote following nominations. Twenty-four of the 63 respondents indicated that their institution provided an award for research/scholarship and 18 offered an award for outstanding service.
Teaching excellence was recognized and rewarded at most US colleges and schools of pharmacy; however, research/scholarship and service were formally recognized less frequently.
确定美国药学院校针对杰出教学、服务和学术成就所给予的认可、所颁发奖项的类型以及用于挑选获奖者的流程。
2006年向89所药学院校的院长在线发放了一份自填式调查问卷。
获得了64份有效回复(72%)。最常被报告的是表彰卓越教学的奖项(92%),其次是授予兼职/志愿教师/带教老师的奖项(79%)。大多数机构(58所中的31所)报告称每年颁发1个教学奖。挑选教学奖获奖者的2种最常见方法是学生投票以及提名后由学院/学校委员会投票。63名受访者中有24人表示他们所在机构设有研究/学术奖,18所设有杰出服务奖。
美国大多数药学院校认可并奖励卓越教学;然而,研究/学术和服务获得正式认可的频率较低。
