Getting students and residents excited about the subject
I teach in the clinical track with dental residents that have just left dental school and have been taught the A-Z of general dentistry. To place there education and limited clinical experience into the "real world" experience with examples of creative dental treatments captures their minds for the beginning of their one year residency program. For the dental hygiene students we teach, they see the potential for their participation in the private practice of their future.
Is my situation different from the adult education programs others are involved with and with witch I am unfamiliar?
Hi Kerry,
No, in any major we try to teach students how it is in the real world so that they know up front, and hopefully they are exciting about learning what they will encounter in the real world.
