There were changes in the format of chemistry-related laboratory courses at Meijo University’s Faculty of Pharmacy from face-to-face lectures in 2019 to distance learning with on-demand video distribution in 2020. From 2021, online summary tests and skill and attitude evaluation lists were included to supplement distance learning. Additionally, face-to-face lectures were reintroduced to support experimental techniques in 2023. A program analysis examined the experimental methods of students in 2022 and 2023 and the effects of these initiatives at various evaluation points, revealing several differences between the two years. While the 2022 students achieved higher results in crude rutin yield, the 2023 students performed smoothly in recrystallization. It was considered appropriate to continue delivering remote and face-to-face lectures while addressing any new issues that may develop throughout the program.
