Abstract in brief

  • The study highlights that medical students often feel unsure about their pharmacology knowledge and typically do not engage in consistent revision, but they favor evidence-based techniques like spaced repetition for learning.
  • Researchers created a comprehensive Anki flashcard resource with over 1200 cards on various drugs, including visuals and summaries, to help students reinforce their pharmacology learning.
  • Evaluation results showed that students highly valued this tailored, strategically designed tool, which effectively supported their ongoing revision and improved engagement in pharmacology education.]
