Homework: Psychopharmacology Patient Medication Teaching Tool

Course Learning Objectives

Purpose:

This homework is designed to assist the student in exploring fully one psychotropic medication and designing an interesting method using new and innovative technology to teach their patient about that medication and then sharing these tools with each other. This is a two-part homework.

Directions:

Part I: Each student chooses a psychotropic medication for this homework (a list was attached and it is first come, first pick so everyone does a different medication). Now, write a 1 to 2 pages paper about the medication - what it is used for, mechanism of action, classification, side effects, etc. On label use and Off label use should be discussed. What do the studies say about it? Do not take this information from an app (apps cannot be used as a reference).

Part II: Design a short Prezi, PowToon, Canva, Infographic, or any other creative and new innovative approach (not a PowerPoint) for patients to explain the medication, why it is being used, and its side effects in a non-threatening manner, entertaining manner that they can understand. Take into consideration age range, culture, educational level, and any other factor that might be important in teaching about the medication. Share this with your peers by posting it in a special discussion board section (it is not a discussion board, just a place to post). It must also be submitted to Blackboard as an homework for grading with the above paper.
