We developed 2.2-inch diagonal (132 x RGB x 162 pixels) Color Passive-matrix Organic light emitting diode(OLED)Display through the use of patterned lateral RGB emitters, and started the pilot production. That display is thin (2.5mm, The driver circuit is included.) and light (10g, The driver circuit is included.), and has a wide range of viewing angles. That is proven to be practical for commercial purposes.
To improve medication education for patients with hearing loss, pharmacists must better understand hearing loss and provide and collect medication information based on patients health literacy and communication abilities. However, no systematic educational e-learning systems for hearing loss are currently available. Therefore, an e-learning system based on instructional design, microlearning principles, and multimedia teaching materials was developed. The e-learning system used Moodle, an open-source e-learning system, and included two courses: one for self-directed learning by watching videos and answering quizzes, and another for evaluating medication education after learning. A study was conducted on 84 pharmacists and 36 pharmacy students who took the learning course to investigate the factors that hinder their understanding and progress of self-directed learning. Although they fully understood the content by watching videos, students with no experience in medication education required an explanation to understand how to communicate with patients. As the learning course was self-directed and related to communication lectures, all students completed it; however, the completion rate for pharmacists was approximately 50%. The following factors could have slowed pharmacists e-learning progress: difficulty accessing the learning course through system login and long-duration content, such as answers to free descriptions. This survey found that this e-learning method can be used for self-directed learning about medication education for patients with hearing loss. Further improvement of the e-learning system is necessary so that recognizing the need to understand hearing loss and take appropriate actions for patients with hearing loss in medication education can lead to self-directed learning among pharmacists.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
