Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The use of technology to enhance and facilitate learning in pharmacy education is on the rise. Technology is often used to either improve student engagement or to support flexible learning anytime and anywhere. The use of technology in a virtual environment also provides a safe space for students to make mistakes without the potentially life-threatening consequences of a real-world error.

In addition, during these unprecedented times, many pharmacy schools have had to move towards remote learning and online education in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Faculty have used innovative technology-based solutions to facilitate learning that may impact education for the foreseeable future.

We invite you to share your research around the implementation, evaluation and teaching experience in the use of technology to enhance pharmacy teaching and learning, including innovative methods used to meet remote and online learning during the COVID-19 Outbreak.

Dr. Clark Kebodeaux
