The evaluation process evaluates at the microlevel, namely the process, learning outcomes, and student perceptions of the Drug Information Services course.

The respondents were 124 USD Pharmacy S-1 students who took the Drug Information Services course in the odd semester of 2020–2021.

Students learning outcomes are in the "very good" category, except for the OSCE examination, which is relatively sufficient. Student have a positive perception of this online lecture. In conclusion, this online lecture can be maintained for the future with a slight modification to the oral exam, which uses the offline method by implementing strict health protocols.
