Published: 10 January 2019 Publication History

Abstract

An innovative problem-based learning integrated with G Suite for education was established to facilitate the knowledge of pharmaceutical analysis and support 21st century skills for pharmacy students. Evaluation of learning outcomes demonstrated the effectiveness of knowledge constructions through the PBL process. Regarding G Suite, it was demonstrated to be a powerful Web 3.0 collaboration and communicating tool that can strengthen PBL in supporting students to enhance specific 21st century skills including, effective self-directed learning skills, problem-solving and critical thinking skills, impressive collaboration skills, communication skills, creative and innovation skills and computing and ICT skills. Positively, students presented high satisfaction for experience in practicing self-directed learning and their own approach for life-long learning, learning method with positive encouragement and teamwork development.
