Careers

This chapter uses the lives of Caroline and Jane Kenney to offer new insights into the relationship between suffrage, feminism, and educational reform. While the links between the teaching profession, the women’s movement, and the suffrage campaign have long been recognized, teachers’ interests in suffrage are usually framed in terms of demands for equal pay, workplace rights, and professional status. This chapter instead explores the Kenney sisters’ interests in the purpose and meaning of education, especially for women, through their commitment to pedagogical reform and innovative education. It shows how their access to a network of reformers, gained through their suffrage work and connections, was one of their most important resources, allowing them to pursue their interests across national boundaries. Their careers suggest some of the possibilities open to feminist teachers who were committed to personal, professional, and political advancement, and who had the resources and opportunities to pursue their goals.

A QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF AN INNOVATIVE EDUCATION PROJECT FOR PHARMACY STUDENTS

The changing environment of pharmacy care represents an opportunity to implement an innovative educational form into the teaching process, which represents a significant potential in preparing pharmacy students for their future profession. The main objective of the assessment was to evaluate the contribution of the innovative education project Advanced Training in Pharmacy Care (ATIP) as a complement to the compulsory curriculum at the Faculty of Pharmacy of the Comenius University in Bratislava. Another objective was to analyse the obstacles to dispensation and counselling perceived by students of the educational project. The assessment uses data from the ATIP educational project carried out between 2015/2016 and 2020/2021 at the Faculty of Pharmacy of the Comenius University in Bratislava. Data collection was provided through a questionnaire survey among the participating students after completing each year of the project. The assessment focused on students' perception of the ATIP educational project, characterizing their readiness to provide pharmacy care and obstacles to the implementation of pharmacy care. Students perceived the project as an interesting addition to the curriculum, which was organized at a high professional level with reasonable difficulty. In the case of their readiness for their future profession by studying and passing compulsory practice, students were critical in their answers. Obstacles affecting the implementation of pharmacy care that prevailed among students were a lack of practical experience, a lack of time to address the patients' problems, and different requirements of patients from the knowledge acquired during study at the faculty. In other obstacles, such as a patient's lack of interest, lack of privacy to talk, etc., students have taken a neutral stance. This innovative education project pointed out the importance of cooperation between various organisations, such as academic, pharmaceutical and student, in the field of education of future health professionals.
