Educational research highlights learning outcomes in dental students using hybrid teaching formats during COVID-19, indicating potential improvements in curricula.
Key Points
Students showed a preference for hybrid teaching methods, while cohort A reported lower learning outcomes compared to cohort B.
Cohort B achieved significantly better learning success from hybrid formats than cohort A, which faced challenges with purely digital methods.
Digital teaching formats, developed during the pandemic, should be critically evaluated for their effectiveness and potential benefits in dental education.
Practical courses are essential in dental training, suggesting a blended approach can improve educational resources and experience.
