Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology is a speciality department of dentistry which deals with identification of diseases affecting oral and maxillofacial regions and investigates the cause, processes and effect of these diseases. Books, internet, lectures have made great progress but there is still a gap between students' understanding and interest in the subject. The aim of this study was to evaluate and analyse the challenges faced by undergraduate students in understanding oral pathology theory & practical and modify the teaching process accordingly. A descriptive cross-sectional study of 300 BDS third year students was conducted in our college. The results stated that 83% of the participants attended classes, 90% found the topics covered to be useful, 97% reported that the classes were taken to provide an in depth view of the subject, 71% faced difficulties in understanding the topics in theory classes. 46% attended seminars, 68% viewed more than 4 slides on an average in one practical class, and 80% faced difficulties in identifying the slide. Our data concluded, that if certain measures will be taken so as to engage the students' interests, then this subject would prove to be a much better scope of learning for the budding dentists. |
