520 _aBackground: With the exponential influence of technology on students’ learning, Computer-based Simulation Learning (CSL) has perceived to have great potential in enhancing the training of healthcare professionals including pharmacists. However, limited evidence is available to compare its impacts on knowledge gained and learning approaches to that of conventional lectures. Materials and Methods: A total of 168 pharmacy students were randomly assigned to “CSL group” (Group I, intervention group) or “Lecture group” (Group II) in this study. The students’ knowledge and deep information processing capabilities were evaluated through a quantitative survey, followed by focus group interviews to obtain an in-depth perspective of the student learning through CSL. Results and Discussion: Compared to didactic lecture, CSL significantly enhanced knowledge gained by the students. There was no significant difference between CSL and didactic lecture on students’ deep information processing skills, although CSL was more effective at promoting the critical reading domain. On the other hand, didactic lecture had higher impacts on healthcare students’ structuring skills. The features to be considered in designing an effective computer-based learning tool were highlighted in this study. Conclusion: Both CSL and didactic lecturing have its role in training pharmacy students’ knowledge and deep information processing skills.
