  1. Breakout session 4: Education in Informatics Rapporteurs:Lynn Johnson, PhD Heiko Spallek, DMD, PhD June 2003, Natcher Conference Center, NIH, Bethesda, MD Dental Informatics and Dental Research: Making the Connection

  2. Doing the Right Things with Technology in Dental Education (Charles Friedman) Bioinformatics Training for Dental Researchers (Lynn Johnson) Issues and Strategies for Faculty Development (Michelle A. Robinson) Adaptive Hypermedia: A New Paradigm for Educational Software (Heiko Spallek)

  3. Doing the Right Things with Technology in Dental Education (Charles Friedman) Lessons Learned: Use computers for instructional needs that canNOT be done any other way. Providing realistic practice opportunities. Present hard to understand contend, e.g., embryology. Support instruction of problem-solving skills, e.g., PBL. Enabling disperse learning environments (outreach). Education ABOUT technology. Connect practice and learning, e.g., Just in time CDE.

  4. Doing the Right Things with Technology in Dental Education (Charles Friedman) Right Things To Do: Simulations and virtual reality. Access to knowledge resources. Communication and collaboration. Use of clinical information systems for learning. Integrate technology into curriculum; NOT as an add on. KISS principle applies to making change.

  5. Biomedical Informatics Training for Dental Researchers (Lynn Johnson) Carefully balance clinical sciences and information sciences. Core competencies are technology independent. Teach core competencies and integrate their application. Dearth of biomedical informatics faculty (programs at Columbia and Pittsburgh). Only Marquette teaches specialty students Work with CODA to add biomedical informatics to accreditation standards Nursing has solved the collaboration problem.

  6. Issues and Strategies for Faculty Development (Michelle A. Robinson) Managing faculty is more complicated than managing technology. Implementing new teaching methods is difficult; it is not the technology. Faculty are more concerned with WIIIFM, than the technology. Summarized the process for developing a success program including a reward structure.

  7. Adaptive Hypermedia: A New Paradigm for Educational Software (Heiko Spallek) Traditional online dental education courses broadcast paradigm centering around the teacher one-size-fits-all approach = mass-production Adaptive hypermedia (AH) learner-centered education learning goal, pre-existing knowledge, learning style => tailor learning material system creates a model of the individual user Taking the right approach with evaluation—formative (expert review & student feedback) and summative
