Quick Response (QR) codes enhanced engagement in a pharmacology course. Students showed positive attitudes and improved participation in discussions after QR code integration.

Area of Science:

  • Educational Technology
  • Pharmacology Education

Background:

  • Case-based learning (CBL) is a pedagogical approach.
  • Enhancing student engagement in higher education is crucial.
  • Integrating novel technologies can potentially improve learning outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of Quick Response (QR) codes on student engagement in a pharmacology case-based learning course.
  • To assess student attitudes towards the use of QR codes in their learning.
  • To evaluate changes in student participation in classroom discussions.

Main Methods:

  • A quasi-experimental design was employed with 103 pharmacology students.
  • Students were stratified into high-, medium-, and low-scoring academic groups.
  • A validated Chinese-version questionnaire assessed attitudes towards QR codes in CBL.

Main Results:

  • The majority of students expressed positive attitudes, perceiving QR codes as easy to use and beneficial for learning.
  • Students demonstrated an increased intention to use QR codes in future academic activities.
  • Post-intervention, students showed improved performance in asking questions and participating in discussions, with significant gains observed in the medium-scoring group.

Conclusions:

  • Quick Response codes are a valuable tool for increasing student engagement in pharmacology case-based learning.
  • The integration of QR codes positively influences student attitudes and participation.
  • Educational interventions utilizing QR codes show promise for improving learning dynamics, particularly for mid-level performing students.
