“…Students agreed that lecturers should use visual elements. This finding is consistent with that of Al-Jandan et al (16), who found that the majority of dental students at Damman University thought videos made positive contributions to lectures. In the study by Lim et al, neuroscience students felt that videos should comprise one-third of lectures (17).…”

Recently, technology has taken a more active role in education than before. Students have technological options, and their use in learning increases day by day. Digital textbooks and libraries are good examples of this instance. Advantages and disadvantages are associated with both electronic and printed textbooks. Electronic books are less expensive than print versions and are available on the Internet (10-13). Digital libraries comprise various sources that benefit students, but questions arise about being dependent on a computer when studying (14). Several studies have been performed in dental education, and all have contributed various benefits to this field. Through these contributions, educators could improve the quality of their education systems. The purpose of this study was to evaluate, among Turkish dental students, attitudes about educational

“…It is also important to mention that students of the current generation are technology savvy and they prefer online-educational tools over conventional face-to-face lectures. 29 Farooq and Al-Jandan previously reported that lectures that use modern tools like videos for illustration of phenomenon’s, can enhance students’ learning. 11 Post-COVID-19 pandemic when all the educational activities are ceased globally, teledentistry could prove to be a vital tool for continuing dental education and training, till the time we return to a normal world where physical distancing is no longer required.…”

The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has affected the whole world and has now been declared a Pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). Although the mortality rate of this virus is low, it is especially potent against people with underlying systemic conditions. Dentistry is a profession where the doctor, as well as the dental staff, works in close vicinity to the patient’s mouth. Dental education has two core components; didactic and clinical training (including patient care). Dental education has been interrupted in the past due to certain events (Arab Spring and SARS outbreak). Currently, the pandemic of COVID-19 has disrupted dental education globally as most of the dental schools and universities in the world have closed amidst the COVID-19 outbreak. Teledentistry is a subspecialty of telemedicine that helps in the provision of educational activities, advice, and diagnosis about treatment over a distance with the help of technology like video conferencing. The current overview summarizes the potential role of teledentistry in continuing the dental educational process in terms of delivery of didactic components, clinical training, and patient care. It can be concluded that with modern updated devices and tools, teledentistry can be an effective way to prevent disruption of dental education and it can be utilized in continuing the dental educational process in this critical time of the COVID-19 outbreak. doi: https://doi.org/10.12669/pjms.36.7.3125 How to cite this:Farooq I, Ali S, Moheet IA, AlHumaid J.

“…The use of digital video in higher education rivets students’ attention on the topic and engages them in the lecture (Tiernan, 2015). Supplementary videos provided after lectures are helpful for enhancing visualisation and understanding the facts delineated during class, thereby augmenting interest in the lecture and easing knowledge acquisition (Al-Jandan et al , 2015). Other findings indicated that complementary video integrated with lecture appeared efficient (Ljubojevic et al , 2014).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the implementation of the flipped classroom method in teaching the course and to investigate the student’s perceived helpfulness, learning outcomes and satisfaction in respect of the pre-class learning videos. Design/methodology/approach Pre-class learning videos were integrated into a course to encourage students to acquire knowledge before lectures and workshops. Having completed the flipped classroom, a delivery questionnaire containing all items was distributed to all of the participants. The data collected were analysed statistically, using a structured equation modelling technique. Findings Findings indicate that the perceived quality of experience of using videos before lectures and workshops has a positive influence on the perceived helpfulness of the pre-class learning videos. Furthermore, the perceived helpfulness of the pre-class learning videos has a positive effect of the acquisition perceived learning outcomes. The perceived helpfulness of the pre-class learning videos also has a positive impact on the student satisfaction with the course. Finally, there is a positive and causal relationship between the perceived learning outcomes and student’s satisfaction with the course. Originality/value Analysis reveals that the learning process and student satisfaction are improved by using pre-class learning videos.
