Area of Science:

  • Dental Education Research
  • Medical Education Assessment
  • Healthcare Professional Training

Background:

  • Dental education in India faces challenges with high vacancy rates and curriculum issues.
  • Assessing student perspectives on the educational environment is crucial for improvement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate graduating dental students' perceptions of their educational environment.
  • Utilize curriculum-based SWOT (C-SWOT) analysis and Q-sort methodology for assessment.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional study involving 76 dental interns from a private South Indian institution.
  • Employed the Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) adapted to C-SWOT domains.
  • Utilized Q-sort methodology with forced distribution for data collection and factor analysis.

Main Results:

  • Factor analysis revealed five key domains: teaching-learning, self-preparedness, approach, organization, and relationship.
  • Students strongly agreed on professional readiness and interpersonal skill development opportunities.
  • Students strongly disagreed with disappointing experiences and teacher ridicule, identifying weaknesses in participation and lecture atmosphere.

Conclusions:

  • Curriculum-based SWOT analysis highlights strong professional preparation and teacher quality as significant strengths.
  • Identified weaknesses include insufficient encouragement of student participation and a suboptimal lecture atmosphere.
  • Recommendations for enhancing dental education quality are implied.
