Abstract

Objective: To describe pharmacy law topics and teaching methods within US colleges and schools of pharmacy.

Methods: Pharmacy law educators across the US were surveyed to describe pharmacy law topics and methods for teaching and assessment used to optimize student learning, subject retention, and practice readiness.

Results: Seventy-two (72) out of 127 programs (those American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy (AACP) member institutions which identified their respective pharmacy law instructor) completed the survey, yielding a response rate of 56.7%. Topics covered within pharmacy law courses varied, but a majority of respondents addressed subjects tested by the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Exam (MPJE). An increasing number of respondent schools include pharmacy advocacy content for both patient care and pharmacist scope of practice. Many respondent schools are incorporating novel active learning strategies to foster student learning and retention.

Conclusion: Delivery of a pharmacy law curriculum within pharmacy schools is dynamic. There is no clear consensus for optimal course delivery; however, the subjects taught, and assessment of student learning is evolving.

药学法学教育的发展趋势。

目的：描述美国药学院的药法主题和教学方法。方法：对美国各地的药法教育工作者进行调查，以描述药法主题和用于优化学生学习，科目保留和实践准备的教学和评估方法。结果：在127个项目中，有72个项目（美国药学院协会（AACP）成员院校确定了各自的药法讲师）完成了调查，回复率为56.7%。药学法律课程所涵盖的主题各不相同，但大多数受访者解决了由国家药学委员会协会多州药学法学考试（MPJE）测试的科目。越来越多的受访学校包括对病人护理和药剂师执业范围的药学宣传内容。许多受访学校正在采用新颖的主动学习策略来促进学生的学习和记忆。结论：药学院的药法课程是动态的。对于最佳课程交付没有明确的共识；然而，所教授的科目和学生学习的评估都在不断发展。
