Introduction to Pharmacology
|
|
This course presents an introduction into the mechanisms of action, pharmacodynamics, adverse-effects, dosage forms, relevant pharmacokinetics, for the most common outpatient drugs prescribed and used by patients seen by the dentist. This self-study course represents a more independent approach to the teaching of second year dental school pharmacology. The online format will methodically guide the student through the textbook, providing goals and additional references that allow for the self-study of pharmacology. the online course substitutes for the lecture by highlighting important areas of pharmacology that need particular attention and helps focus the dental student's time. Be removing the lecture component of the course, the student is allowed to study at times and places of their preference. This allows more flexibility with time, but requires more self-discipline and time management skills from the student. It is not self-paced: Specific chapters and tests must be completed weekly to proceed through the course. Meeting these goals requires more student responsibility than a traditional course.
