“…The absence of eye contact during the training process was the most relevant barrier reported by students (Barakat et al, 2021). Recorded video tutorials were described as effective and supportive tools for pharmacy education (Farha et al, 2020). However, using them solely might not be as effective, requiring a blended learning style to be more comprehensive (Baumann-Birkbeck et al, 2017).…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has presented a slew of new obstacles for all health professionals, particularly those in charge of training students. Many pharmacy schools had to convert to virtual experiential learning with little to no existing literature, framework, or appropriate time for preparation. This review documents the virtual pharmacy practice training at a university in Lebanon during COVID-19 and several other colleges of pharmacy worldwide that have shared their experiences. A literature review of international publications was performed in PubMed and Google Scholar between 1 March 2022 and 30 May 2022, and relevant articles were included. The narrative offers a variety of approaches to ensure that pharmacy learners prioritise self-care, are adequately prepared to enter pharmacy practice, and reflect on their learning. However, other aspects, such as the use of a variety of online training platforms, the inclusion of more patient-centric activities, and the provision of live virtual patient experiences, should be enhanced in the future.

“…The intervention group achieved higher score than the control group, p < 0.001. Unlike a previous recent study which evaluated the influence of the training module immediately after conducting the workshop, 52 we evaluated the effectiveness after several weeks which ensure measuring the long-term effect of this educational tutorial.…”

“…Few studies have been conducted to determine the effect of educational programs on students' ability to obtain medication histories and to identify and resolve TRPs. [50][51][52] These studies have focused on incorporating an interactive learning exercise using simulation 50,51 and the use of a short duration video tutorial 52 to educate students about medication reconciliation and the results of these studies indicated that students' knowledge and skills about medication reconciliation and identifying discrepancies were improved following the educational intervention. [50][51][52] However, medication reconciliation and finding discrepancies are only one part of PC principle.…”

Accordingly, the aim of this study was to develop, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of another teaching method, an online tutorial, to educate pharmacy students about the clinical problem-solving process and how to retrieve patient data from medical files and developing a patient specific pharmaceutical care plan for the identification, resolution and prevention of TRPs that enable them to practice PC and improve decision making process.…”

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of an online tutorial and its impact on improving knowledge and skills of pharmacy students in the clinical problem-solving process that is necessary to implement pharmaceutical care. Methods: This is a prospective interventional study conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions using four novel templates. The first two levels of Kirkpatrick’s Model (Reaction and Learning) were used. Results: 129 participants completed all of the online training parts. The findings indicated a significant improvement in the students’ knowledge and skills. The participants achieved higher score following the tutorial than the baseline, with a statistically significant difference (p < 0.001). There was a significant improvement in the number of detected treatment-related problems. The majority of students were satisfied with the overall training process and stated a high evaluation score out of 10 (mean = 7.93 ± 1.42, median = 8.00). Conclusion: The educational intervention achieved a substantial positive impact on decision-making skills of participating students and was considered effective in helping them attain basic skills such as teamwork, peer assessment, communication and critical evaluation. Healthcare providers must work together to ensure accurate medication use during care transitions. Pharmacists, as medication experts, play an important role in the implementation process. Pharmacy educators must prepare pharmacy student to use pharmaceutical care in their future practice.

“…Transferring content previously delivered inperson into asynchronous video tutorials offers a solution to the problem of the course schedule, but can all subjects be successfully learned from online tutorials? Previous research work has demonstrated that pharmacy students can learn skills and retain knowledge from asynchronous video tutorials in specific subject areas such as inhaler techniques (Erickson et al, 2013), counselling for common drugs (Lean et al, 2018), medication reconciliation (Abu Farha et al, 2020), ambulatory care practices (Phillips, 2015), and pain management (Pick et al, 2017). It is more difficult to find examples from the pharmaceutical area; however, manufacturing processes (Yellipeddi and Roberson, 2016) and compounding skills (Park & Shrewsbury, 2016) have been examined as well.…”

Objective: The objective was to determine if online, asynchronous video content could be used to teach information literacy concepts successfully to pharmacy students in a pharmaceutics course. Method: An existing in-person lecture was transferred to a series of online videos. Students enrolled in the course who agreed to participate took a 13-question pre-test, watched videos, and completed the same post-test, along with a survey of their opinions towards the videos. Scores on each of the questions on the pre-and post-test changed positively and significantly. Students slightly preferred videos to in-person instruction. Result: The results suggest that asynchronous videos can be used to teach information literacy concepts to pharmacy students and this knowledge is retained for the duration of the course.
