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. Approaches to "pharmacotherapeutical decisions" are practiced using the special PC programmes. Reports of students on a specific pharmacological topic followed by discussion are also included.
Assessment methods
The participation in practicals is obligatory and registered. To get credits a student has to pass 2 written tests: a) test on special drug presription (assessed individually by the teacher), b) multiple-choice test on knowledge of topics taught, which usually consists of 15 questions. Each question offers one or more correct options. Criterion for successful passing the test is defined as more than half correctly answered questions.
Language of instruction
