Sumario:At Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) bedside teaching (BT) for pharmacy students has been in place since 2014. To continue offering BT during the contact restrictions imposed by the authorities in 2020, the course was digitalised, and virtual bedside teaching implemented. Using Moodle, the original concept was divided into smaller sections and presented, e.g. in the form of video sequences. All sections of the course were accessed asynchronously by the students. Tasks were individually processed and evaluated. Virtual awards were used to increase the students’ motivation. Contact with each other was possible via posting in available forums or the weekly online chat consultation. A total of 70 students successfully completed the course. The evaluation of the course was very positive, with mainly technical difficulties that were criticized. The students’ feedback will be implemented in the course concept for the winter term.
