Teaching methods
Drug classes specifics from the Syllabus are read firstly by the teacher and presented in video-programmes if available followed by discussion and training of drug prescription with the use of drug compendia and the computer database of the preparations registered in the Czech Republic (AISLP). Each student is asked to get ready as a homework to report on a specific pharmacological topic.
Assessment methods
The participation in practicals is obligatory and registered. To get credits a student has to pass 4 written tests: a) 2 on special drug presriptions (assessed individually by the teacher), b) 2 multiple-choice tests on knowledge of topics taught (more than half correctly answered questions required).
