Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of holistic thinking training mode on establishing clinical holistic thinking in endodontic practice teaching for students.Methods:Holistic thinking training mode was applied among Batch 2013 (group A, n=174) and Batch 2014 (group B, n=92) students of Guanghua School of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University. The teaching results were evaluated by the scores before and after the training and questionnaire, and by comparing their scores with those of Batch 2012 (group C, n=88) students. SPSS 20.0 was used to conduct one-way ANOVA and t test. Results:Compared the scores of students in group A with group B, the total scores before and after the training and the scores of "case report" were not statistically different, but the scores of holistic thinking were significantly improved after the training. Compared with the scores of students in group C, the total scores after the training and the "case report" scores of group A and B were significantly higher. The results of the questionnaire showed that 87.9%(153/174) of the students thought the training mode was conducive to the establishment of holistic thinking, but 77.6%(135/174) thought further improvement was needed in terms of content and time allocation.Conclusion:Holistic thinking training mode has a positive effect on the endodontic practice teaching, and is worth promoting in other departments after further improvement.
