Currents in Pharmacy Teaching & Learning
|October 23, 2020
Summary
Pharmacy educators can leverage technology and tailored teaching methods to develop Generation Z (Gen Z) students. This approach fosters essential skills for future pharmacists, ensuring a competent and impactful profession.
Area of Science:
- Pharmacy Education
- Higher Education Pedagogy
Background:
- Generation Z (Gen Z) students are entering pharmacy programs.
- Understanding their unique characteristics is crucial for effective teaching.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore pedagogical strategies for Gen Z pharmacy students.
- To identify opportunities for developing essential practitioner skills.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative analysis of Gen Z learning preferences.
- Review of current educational approaches in pharmacy schools.
Main Results:
- Gen Z students prefer active engagement and technology integration.
- They possess a growth mindset and value immediate, honest feedback.
Conclusions:
- Pharmacy educators must adapt teaching methods to incorporate technology and active learning.
- Facilitating communication and collaboration skills is vital for Gen Z's professional development.

00:53Migration
8.5K
Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.

01:28Transition Zone
251
The transition zone in concrete is a critical area where aggregate meets cement paste, marked by a distinct porosity and weakness compared to the surrounding material. The adhesion around the aggregates is primarily due to Van Der Waals forces. The voids within this zone influence its robustness; initially, it is less durable than the surrounding bulk mortar due to larger voids. Initially, when concrete is compacted, a higher water-cement ratio near the aggregates leads to the formation of...

01:21Chemotaxis and Direction of Cell Migration
4.1K
Cells can detect chemical cues in their environment and reorganize the cytoskeleton to migrate toward them or away from them. This directional migration, called chemotaxis, is essential during embryogenesis and development, immune response, tissue repair and regeneration, and reproduction. These chemical cues can either attract or repel the cell's movement. For example, axon development is determined by a combination of chemoattractants and chemorepellents that direct the growing axon...

02:29Hybrid Zones
21.5K
Hybrid zones are narrow regions where two closely related species interact, mate, and produce hybrids. Relative to either parent species, hybrids may possess distinct phenotypic or genetic differences that impact their survival and reproductive success. The genetic variances introduced by hybridization influence species diversity and speciation processes within the hybrid zone.

01:27Emerging Adulthood
443
Jeffrey Arnett's concept of emerging adulthood offers a framework to understand the unique developmental stage between adolescence and full-fledged adulthood, generally from ages 18 to 25. This period is marked by extensive exploration and shifts in identity, relationships, and career choices, a process known in psychology as role experimentation. Emerging adulthood reflects the evolving cultural expectations surrounding adulthood and the dynamic process of personal transformation during...

Ampère's law, in its usual form, does not work in places where the current changes with time and is not steady. Thus, Maxwell suggested including an additional contribution, called the displacement current, Id, to the real conduction current I.
