Teaching methods
Practical training:Machine treatment of root canal. Repeated endodontic therapy. Techniques of root canal filling. Practical training (about 50 % of the total volume of teaching) is complemented by a comprehensive range of simulation teaching methods on simulators with varying degrees of fidelity, trainers and virtual patients. Most of them are equipped with a specialized evaluation software system that allows for every step of preparation, including feedback and test, and objective assessment of the student's work. Dental microscopes, CAD / CAM technologies, simulated X-ray teaching and other modern teaching aids are also used. Emphasis is also placed on the development of soft skills, incl. so-called "21st century skills", particularly communication, decision-making skills, critical thinking, crisis communication and teamwork.
Assessment methods
Credit. Practical skills will be verified using the specialized evaluation software system. The course will also focus on the development of the ability to orientate in auxiliary investigative methods, their interpretation, critical thinking and teamwork. This way of evaluating gives students an objective and specific feedback.
