The Flipped Classroom in Orthodontic Residency Programs
Abstract
Re-examining dental education curriculum and methods is an ongoing process dating back to the original transformative Gies report in 1926. A more recent look concludes that dental education is at a crossroads and new models of dental education are required. Traditional lectures, while proven to be successful at conveying information are no longer seen as the most effective or efficient models. Today's students benefit from collaborative learning and respond better to videos and interactive formats than traditional book reading. In addition, millennials reared on technology throughout their education have less tolerance for traditional lectures. Currently there is a movement throughout graduate health professions education to promote active student-centered learning that incorporates application of material to solve problems through group interactions.
