I would prefer to meet the pharmacy students face to face and cut out
computers ...
... It was more, let’s say, fun learning in the sense you know
that I think that was a very positive aspect of it ...
Definitely it would provide more motivation.
You’d just put a lot more effort into
it ... if you knew it was going to be
formally assessed.
I mean it was useful, but don’t know if it really
benefited us dealing with pharmacy students.
I wasn’t particularly interested in working
towards it when it wasn’t a formal
assessment.
... more interaction would have helped us
understand more ...
