摘要

目的：这篇教育简介描述了一项针对高中生的新型虚拟逃避任务招募活动的设计、实施和结果。方法：招生办教职员工与大学教学设计人员、当地高中生和教师导师合作，设计了一个以药学职业为重点的教育虚拟逃避任务。通过活动前和活动后的电子调查，评估了该活动对六所地方高中卫生职业选修课程的高中生的影响，其中包括基于知识的评估和学生对药学和卫生保健职业的知识和兴趣的自我评估。结果：该活动显著提高了对药学职业的认识，教育途径，以及对药学职业的考虑。调查前后的知识评估总分也有显著提高，平均提高24.8%。结论：虚拟逃避任务对药学教育途径和药学职业知识的增加有很大的影响，但对药学职业兴趣的改变影响很小。需要进一步的研究来确定这种创新的招聘活动对药学职业和其他学生群体的长期兴趣的影响。

Impact of a Virtual Escape Quest Pharmacy Recruitment Activity for High School Students

Objective

This educational brief describes the design, implementation, and outcomes of a novel virtual escape quest recruitment activity for high school students.

Methods

Admissions faculty and staff collaborated with university instructional design staff, local high school students, and faculty mentors to design an educational virtual escape quest focused on pharmacy careers. The impact of the activity was assessed among high school students enrolled in health careers elective courses at 6 local high schools through pre and postactivity electronic surveys. These surveys included a knowledge-based assessment and a self-assessment of students’ knowledge of, and interest in, pharmacy and health care careers.

Results

The activity significantly improved knowledge of pharmacy careers, education pathways, and consideration of a career in pharmacy. The total score from the pre and postsurvey knowledge assessment also showed significant improvement, with an average score increase of 24.8%.

Conclusion

The virtual escape quest had a substantial impact on increasing knowledge of pharmacy education pathways and pharmacy careers, but only a small effect on changing interest in pharmacy careers in the studied population of high school students enrolled in a health career exploration elective. Further study is needed to determine the impact of this innovative recruitment activity on long-term interest in pharmacy careers and its applicability to other student populations.
