Evaluating pharmacy student use of ExamSoft strength and opportunity reports

Abstract Introduction This paper assesses use of ExamSoft strength and opportunity (SO this increased to 68% (48/71) after educational interventions (P = .06). Students who downloaded the report were asked to provide their perceived usefulness of the SO this increased to 94% (45/48) following educational interventions (P = .002). Fewer students reported not being able to interpret the report post-intervention vs. baseline, although the decrease was not significant (9% vs. 21%, respectively; P = .07). Conclusions Our findings indicate that providing students with a downloadable S&O report after exams is beneficial. There was a trend towards increased student use and a significant increase in perceived usefulness of the report following brief educational interventions. Our pilot data suggest that educational interventions on use of S&O reports should be included in student ExamSoft training.
