Design-based research (DBR) offers a systematic approach to address complex challenges in pharmacy education. This iterative method bridges theory and practice, fostering practical solutions and theoretical understanding for improved learning outcomes.
Area of Science:
- Pharmacy Education Research
- Interventional Research Methodologies
Background:
- Pharmacy education faces complex challenges requiring innovative research approaches.
- Interventional research in this field needs systematic and iterative methods.
Purpose of the Study:
- To describe the application of Design-Based Research (DBR) in addressing student collaboration challenges in pharmacy education.
- To demonstrate how DBR can bridge theory and practice in educational research.
Main Methods:
- Design-Based Research (DBR) is presented as a systematic, iterative, and authentic approach.
- DBR involves three phases: analysis and exploration, design and construction, and evaluation and reflection.
Main Results:
- DBR facilitates the creation of novel solutions to complex educational problems.
- This approach refines the understanding of context-specific learning in pharmacy education.
Conclusions:
- DBR provides a flexible, iterative, and systematic process for generating practical and theoretical contributions.
- It aids pharmacy educational scholars in developing creative solutions to complex issues.
