MyDispense
Technology moves fast, but we move faster. Our learning needs have changed, students need to be able to practice their skills not just in the classroom, but on their own time too. To meet our learning needs, we built a bespoke digital software application to support our key teaching goals to enhance the student experience.
Technology plays a pivotal role in how students engage with content and with the world. As the world embraces remote learning, it’s clear that digital platforms will continue to be a key player in the student learning experience.
Our Faculty has developed MyDispense, an innovative web application which allows pharmacy students to develop confidence and skills in learning how to dispense medicines.
MyDispense is an end-to-end experience for students, from the first communication with the patient and prescriber, to providing professional advice when providing medicines to the patient. In line with our emphasis on feedback-based learning, upon completion of each exercise, students are given contextual feedback on their performance and how they can improve.
With over 220 institutions worldwide using MyDispense and several awards to its name (including the 2022 Australian Financial Review Higher Education Award for Teaching and Learning Excellence), it’s evident that technology enhanced learning works.
