To implement and assess a required public health poster project in a doctor of pharmacy (PharmD) program.
Third-year PharmD students collaborated in pairs to research a public health topic relating to pharmacy practice. Each student group prepared an informational poster, while receiving feedback from a faculty mentor at each stage of the project. The students presented their completed posters at a statewide pharmacy conference.
Faculty members evaluated the posters with a grading rubric, and students completed a survey instrument that assessed the overall experience. In general, faculty members rated the class highly across all domains of the grading rubric. The class generally agreed that the poster project increased their awareness of public health issues related to pharmacy practice, overall knowledge of public health, and presentation skills.
The implementation of a poster project was well received by students and faculty members as an effective method for enhancing public health instruction in the PharmD program at North Dakota State University.
在药学博士(PharmD)课程中实施并评估一项公共卫生海报项目。
三年级 PharmD 学生两两合作,研究与药学实践相关的公共卫生主题。每个学生小组都准备了一份信息海报,并在项目的每个阶段从一名教师导师那里获得反馈。学生们在全州范围内的药学会议上展示了他们完成的海报。
教师使用评分细则评估海报,学生们则完成一份评估整体体验的调查工具。总的来说,教师对所有评分细则的领域都给予了很高的评价。学生们普遍认为,海报项目提高了他们对与药学实践相关的公共卫生问题的认识、对公共卫生知识的整体理解以及演讲技巧。
海报项目的实施受到学生和教师的欢迎,是在北达科他州立大学 PharmD 课程中加强公共卫生教学的有效方法。
