I've been teaching pharmaceutical chemistry courses for 16 years and have evolved to believe in the ever-changing necessity to keep up with increasing human requirements for health and well-being is the key in connecting the established subject knowledge with contemporary disease management. This has become increasingly important in the post-covid era, as every health care-related subject must be viewed through the lens of covid.Â
Pharmacy is a research-based course and thus, i constantly encourage my students to think critically and connect established knowledge in the medicinal chemistry domain to emerging ailments and recent advancements.Â
My teaching strategies include problem-based learning, the use of critical learning tools such as computer-based assignments, and collaborative multidimensional research. My goal is to instill in students a desire to learn that will enable them to be lifelong learners and never experience adversity in an ever-changing world.
