| Abstract | Introduction : Epilepsy is chronic disease. It is necessary use epileptic drugs to control disease progression. Pharmacists being medicine experts should know about epileptic drugs. Increasingly, computer-assisted instruction program (CAI) is being used in pharmacy education. This study was a quasi-experimental design and compared traditional pharmacology learning with CAI using a lesson on seizure for fifth year pharmacy students. Thirty students were included into this study and divided into two groups by simple randomized method. The control group received handouts and studied by themselves. The intervention group used CAI and also studied by themselves. The outcomes were pretest and posttest scores, comments and satisfaction of both groups. Instruments and method: Both groups were evaluated for knowledge by pre and post-testing and opinions by questionnaire. In addition, CAI program quality was evaluated by the intervention group. Result : Post test scores of both groups were significantly higher than pre-test scores (p=0.001). On the other hand, there were no significant differences in post-test score between control and intervention group. The scores of opinion of the media, the knowledge, media interest, appropriate content, appropriate study period and satisfaction of the intervention group were significantly higher than the control group (p<0.05). However, the intervention group suggested that each content should provide questions, case studies, figures in an appropriate of time. In addition, sound and graphic as well as the sequence of contents should be consistency. In conclusion: CAI of antiepileptic drugs lesson enhanced self-study. Moreover, it helped to increase the satisfaction of self-study learning and reviewing. CAI could be an alternative method for pharmacy students to improve the effectiveness of their study by supplementing the traditional pharmacology lectures. |
