Management of Experiences in Community‐Based Dental Education

Journal of Dental Education (2010)

Caswell A. Evans Aljernon J. Bolden Christine Hryhorczuk Khatija Noorullah

The successful management of community‐based service‐learning relies on developing and maintaining community partnerships that meet both the educational mission of the dental school and the service mission of the community clinic. The partnership enhances the dental curriculum by introducing students to a wide variety of practice models, patient populations, and perspectives on health care delivery systems. The partnership enhances the service mission of the community sites by providing them with a university affiliation, a window into the state‐of‐the‐art techniques that students bring with them from the dental school, and a pool of future graduates who may choose to practice in that clinic setting. This “win‐win” scenario is not automatic, but rather relies on carefully matching, maintaining, and evaluating the service‐learning partnerships. This article describes the development and implementation of the community‐based service‐learning curriculum in the College of Dentistry, University of Illinois at Chicago.

A Model for Selection and Assessment of Community‐Based Sites for Dental Students’ Extramural Clinical Experiences

Journal of Dental Education (2008)

Christine Hryhorczuk Aljernon J. Bolden G. William Knight I Punwani Daniel Mulvihill

As a recipient of the Robert Wood Johnson's Pipeline, Profession, and Practice: Community-Based Dental Education grant, the Extramural Education Program (EEP) at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Dentistry was charged with developing partnerships with community-based oral health programs throughout Illinois. These programs are to be used for clinical service-learning rotations for fourth-year dental students, relying on the utilization of the dentists employed at the community site as preceptors for the students. Because the College of Dentistry had essentially no community-based service-learning experiences prior to the Robert Wood Johnson grant, procedures and protocols needed to be developed to standardize a process for site and preceptor selection. An administrative process was developed to engage, recruit, and partner with community-based oral health programs that provided direct clinical services. This article will discuss the development of criteria used to select sites and preceptors for extramural clinical rotations; the development of a set of standardized assessment instruments; and the credentialing process for community-based adjunct faculty that leads to the affiliation agreements. These community-based rotations have been integrated into the College of Dentistry curriculum as a required extramural service-learning course referred to as Extramural Clinical Experience (DADM 325).
