Innovative teaching methods in dental education

Journal Title: Gulhane Medical Journal - Year 2021, Vol 63, Issue 1

Abstract

Health professionals have often acknowledged that their profession does not prepare them for teaching. Hence the teaching style has been predominantly the traditional lecture based system. In this review, we get a gist of the innovative teaching methods, which have gained acceptance in the recent years, and how the implementation of these has become crucial for effective teaching learning process. Problem based learning, case based team based learning, microteaching and flipped classroom are some of the innovations discussed. The dental faculty also need to undergo a series of training to be well equipped with these methods, and also the institutes wanting to implement the above methods should have the infrastructure, so that the students are also well equipped and motivated to utilize the innovations which in turn will help them think and acquire knowledge in an effective, systematic manner.
