“…[23][24][25][26][27] As technology becomes increasingly integrated into the classroom, and with the growth of health professions programs with multiple campuses, the use of live streaming or video recordings to reach students of these campuses has increased, which addresses time and space limitations. 25,[28][29][30][31] Telehealth has successfully been used in interprofessional education (IPE) whereby students obtained medication histories, provided clinical recommendations, and reported improved self-perception of interprofessional competence and attitudes toward interprofessional collaboration. 32 A simulated Telehealth collaboration has been shown to reduce logistical difficulties associated with IPE integration of teams in Team-Based Learning (TBL) related to pharmacogenomics.…”

Objective. To describe implementation of a patient counseling roleplay assessment via teleconferencing platform in a newly-developed pharmacy communications course, assess student performance on the roleplay and compare it with other assessments, and measure student perceptions of and satisfaction with the experience. Methods. Eighteen cases were developed, each belonging to one of three interactions in community pharmacy: new prescription, refill, or over-the-counter (OTC) medication request. A rubric was designed to evaluate each type of interaction. Student scores in various course assessments were tested using Spearman's rank-order. Student scores in the three cases were compared using Kruskal-Wallis H. Students evaluated their experience and satisfaction of the assessment and effectiveness of the course. Results. Seventy-nine students completed the assessment with a mean score of 17.4/20 (87.0%). Student scores in counseling roleplay were similar among case types and positively correlated with other traditional assessments in the course. Despite internet connectivity issues, and heightened student anxiety, 71.0% agreed that the assessment did not affect the quality of their counseling, and 74.0% agreed that the experience was comparable to traditional assessments. The telehealth activity led to enhanced perceived student knowledge and confidence in interviewing and counseling patients. Conclusion.Students attained high scores that were consistent with other assessments in the course. Students reported the assessment did not affect the quality of their counseling, and felt the setting and context were still authentic. The experience required dedicated preparation and organization, but was successful in demonstrating overall student satisfaction and positive perceptions.

“…[3][4][5][6] Similar results have been found in other academic programs using technology to bridge multiple campuses, including physical therapy and medicine. [7][8][9] Technology is not only pervading pharmacy curricula, but also proliferating in practice with services such as telepharmacy. The American Society of Health-System Pharmacists' statement on telepharmacy calls for "appropriately trained and equipped pharmacists" to use telepharmacy to provide patient care to those who may not have easy access to a health care facility.…”

Objective. To determine pharmacy students' preferences and perceptions of in-person and video evaluations. The relationship between student perceptions and academic achievement has been established, but little research on student perceptions of evaluation methods exists. Methods. A mixed methods survey was administered to 447 first-, second-, and third-professional year pharmacy students enrolled in one public United States Doctor of Pharmacy program. Fourteen 5-point Likert-type scale quantitative items and four qualitative items measured student perceptions. Eight response choice items measured preferences. Paired t-tests compared perceptions; independent t-tests compared perceptions between students exposed and not exposed to video evaluations. Two researchers performed thematic content analysis of the qualitative responses. Results. Students (n=444, 99.3% response rate) perceived in-person and video evaluations as significantly different, with in-person evaluations being perceived more positively on all items except for nervousness. Students exposed to video felt significantly more positive towards video evaluations than video-naïve students on nine items but felt significantly less positive towards video evaluations in terms of quality (Δ=1.24 vs. 0.83) and amount (Δ=1.14 vs 0.77) of written feedback. Students valued interactions with a more diverse pool of evaluators afforded by video evaluations but did not view the video technology as applicable to future practice. Conclusion.Students viewed in-person evaluations significantly more positively than video evaluations. This effect is mitigated by exposure to video, suggesting that concerns regarding video evaluations are based on conjecture rather than experience. This study highlights the need to reduce technological issues and improve written feedback associated with video evaluations.
