OBJECTIVE
To design and implement a small-group assignment on current event, nonprescription drug therapy questions in a self-care course, and to evaluate student performance in predefined areas.
DESIGN
Students self-identified a current clinical question in nonprescription therapy, searched primary literature, and presented their findings to peers in class.
ASSESSMENT
Students were evaluated using a grading rubric on communication skills, ability to retrieve and analyze biomedical literature, and ability to formulate and defend an evidence-based recommendation. Overall, students performed well in all competencies, with grades ranging from 84% to 100% (median=92%). Faculty members completing a postassignment survey gave positive feedback regarding the educational value of the assignment and the ease of use of the designed rubric.
CONCLUSION
A course assignment that involved peer-to-peer presentations and dealt exclusively with applicable, relevant, clinical questions regarding nonprescription drug therapy gave students a novel opportunity to practice drug information skills.
目的
在一门自我护理课程中设计并实施一项关于时事、非处方药治疗问题的小组作业，并在预先确定的领域评估学生的表现。
设计
学生自行确定一个非处方药治疗方面的当前临床问题，检索原始文献，并在课堂上向同伴展示他们的研究结果。
评估
使用评分标准对学生在沟通技巧、检索和分析生物医学文献的能力以及制定和捍卫基于证据的建议的能力进行评估。总体而言，学生在所有能力方面表现良好，成绩从84%到100%不等（中位数 = 92%）。完成作业后调查的教师对该作业的教育价值和所设计评分标准的易用性给予了积极反馈。
结论
一项涉及同伴间展示且专门处理与非处方药治疗相关的适用临床问题的课程作业，为学生提供了一个练习药物信息技能的新机会。
