Résumé
The objective of the study was to compare a dental student's practical ability to detect and stage radiographic caries per International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS), following a traditional lecture and a lecture containing an interactive session using an audience response system (ARS). Associations between the order of instructions and student performance were also evaluated. Eighty-three dental students were randomly assigned to groups A and B. On the first day, group A received a traditional lecture and group B received content using the ARS. All students then took an electronic quiz (T1) identifying and staging caries on radiographs per ICDAS. For the second day, group A received the content using the ARS system and group B received a traditional lecture. All students subsequently took a second electronic quiz (T2). Two survey questions about the learning experience were also included. Wilcoxon rank-sum analysis of scores from consenting students (81) showed no difference between the quiz 1 scores of two groups (p=.61). Whilst not statistically significant (p = .07), the group that had the ARS initially scored marginally higher on quiz 2. Survey results showed that most participants preferred either the ARS alone (49.38%) or a combination of the ARS and a traditional lecture (40.74%). A majority of them (80%) found the ARS helpful. When training students in practical skills of detection and staging radiographic presence of dental caries per ICDAS, hands-on learning tools, such as an ARS, complement traditional lectures.
