To evaluate pharmacy students' perceived benefits of the portfolio process and to gather suggestions for improving the process.
A questionnaire was designed and administered to 250 first-, second-, and third-year pharmacy students at the University of Arizona College of Pharmacy.
Although the objectives of the portfolio process were for students to understand the expected outcomes, understand the impact of extracurricular activities on attaining competencies, identify what should be learned, identify their strengths and weaknesses, and modify their approach to learning, overall students perceived the portfolio process as having less than moderate benefit. First-year students wanted more examples of portfolios while second- and third-year students suggested that more time with their advisor would be beneficial.
The portfolio process will continue to be refined and efforts made to improve students' perceptions of the process as it is intended to develop the self-assessments skills they will need to improve their knowledge and professional skills throughout their pharmacy careers.
评估药学专业学生对档案袋过程的感知益处,并收集有关改进该过程的建议。
设计并向亚利桑那大学药学院的 250 名一年级、二年级和三年级药学专业学生分发了一份问卷。
尽管档案袋过程的目标是让学生了解预期的结果,了解课外活动对获得能力的影响,确定应该学习什么,了解自己的长处和短处,并调整学习方法,但总体而言,学生认为档案袋过程的益处低于中等。一年级学生希望看到更多的档案袋示例,而二、三年级学生则建议与导师多花些时间。
档案袋过程将继续得到完善,并努力提高学生对该过程的看法,因为它旨在培养学生自我评估技能,这些技能将有助于他们在整个药学职业生涯中提高知识和专业技能。
