Clinical Pharmacy IV Integrated Seminar Presentation

To ALL,

The sub-topics of the Clinical Pharmacy IV Integrated Seminar Presentation would be the ‘a’ and ‘b’ subtopics provided on grouping lists in the elearning. Students are to contact lecturer in charge if they are not clear. Mr. Kingston said for the 2 subtopics under each large topic, the initial 3 students of a main topic will do ‘a’ part and the next 3 will do ‘b’ part under the main topic. Now those 3 students will divide among themselves the plenary topic. For example, the plenary topic is ‘management of upper urinary tract infection’ 3 students can divide this topic into different objectives according to disease conditions OR drugs OR in any other aspects.

Now keeping the plenary topic as TITLE, those 3 students can produce a single abstract having background, objectives (preferably 3 individual objectives of those 3 students), methods. Please liaise with the lecturers assigned for the topics to know whether hard/soft copy. The abstract is a small write up of description of the learning objective/outcome of the presentation. Tips: everyone can look at Sem 8 manual -there are plenty of learning outcomes there as guidance. This is to be sent earlier to lecturer together with the plenary question to allow lecturer to have better idea of coverage and to give ideas of modification needed for plenary/presentation. For students presenting at 1st two weeks, they should really start communicating with lecturer in charge of integrated seminar now.

To every one of you, please communicate with lecturer in charge of presentation for advice as the topics are different each group. Lecturer emails should be in student manual. Different lecturer may have slightly different ideas although there is a general guide. If you have any questions, please post directly in the forum of the e-learning portal or refer to your respective lecturers. No need to go through Jun Yan then he will email to me all the time, and sometimes I’m also not sure who’s he referring to because I really can’t remember all the names of the class. I urge everyone to take initiative to cooperate with your respective lecturers about this seminar since you all are in Sem 8, who are graduating soon as a working pharmacists.

Please give us the feedback (both positive and negative) about the hospital attachments that you all have gone through by filling the student evaluation forms, so that we can improve further in the future for your junior batch. I hope that I have made myself clear to everyone.

Thank you.

Regards,

Ms Wong Pei Se
