Pages

  0-0

Abstract

 Background: The outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has led to the transition of Dental Education from chair-side clinical teachings to virtual didactic lectures. The future of Dental Education is not clear in these uncertain times. Objectives: This Survey-based study aimed to evaluate the current scenario and preparedness of dental colleges/universities and faculty in adapting to the new situation and understanding the challenges faced during this phase. The Survey also explored the opinions, limitations, and possible solutions in dental academics through open-ended qualitative questions. Methods: This Survey-based study utilized exploratory mixed methods through both open-and closed-ended questions. The Survey was distributed electronically to the majority of dental colleges across India to be answered voluntarily by the dental academicians involved in COVID-19 planning. The Survey was inspired by the pre-existing questionnaire proposed by the Association of Dental Education in Europe (ADEE), and it was modifi ed by the committee consisting of the study authors. Validation and piloting of the study were done through in-house dental faculty. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and expressed in percentages. Broad themes for qualitative data were derived by two independent authors and collated by the third author to fi nalize the results. Results: The questionnaire was answered by 89 dental schools from all parts of the country with varying stages of COVID-19 prevalence. Quantitative data revealed 100% adaptation of dental schools to online teaching, uncertainty regarding online (31. 46%) and offl ine (10. 11%) exams, and assessment of clinical competence. Qualitative analysis indicated uncertainty, ambiguity, and lack of direction among study respondents regarding how best to deal with the current situation. Conclusions: According to our results, collaborative eff ort from governing bodies was urgently required at this point to prevent Dental Education from being divided into multi-directional, incoherent, and isolated units.
