From the start, UAMS faculty went deep on item analysis to discover which questions were particularly challenging for the students and why. In response, faculty modified how they deliver the material or created additional opportunities for students to engage with the content before being tested on it.

With each iteration of the course, faculty is evolving instruction to support student success. This allows faculty to discover what topics need more attention or, conversely, what is well understood. With ExamSoft, faculty can see performance over time and across the course to see if intervention is necessary. Faculty meet with students to point them to resources or study methodologies that will lead to better mastery of the material.

Early intervention and remediation support progression through the program and long-term student retention. It offers reports that are useful and useable. The data creates rich opportunities for improvement, both for the school and the students.

Moving forward, UAMS is looking into other opportunities to improve the pharmacy program by blueprinting exams, leveraging ExamSoft category mapping into an exam guide that shows how well the exam covers key categories. Ultimately, UAMS is striving to correlate performance-based assessments or OSCEs with classroom learning to discover opportunities to improve course-based instruction in support of future patient or physician interactions. UAMS faculty and administrators feel confident about their upcoming accreditation visit.
