This theme is concerned with the relevance and efficacy of educational methods adopted in dental schools while recognizing the influence of geopolitical issues in different countries and regions. Particular emphasis will be given to examples of best practices and innovations. Cognition and learning are dealt with in many different research areas such as education, psychology, cognitive sciences, brain research, neurolinguistics, gender, etc. and comprise the theoretical foundation for the philosophies, principles and methods underlying the dental education system. Educational methods are many and mixed. This group has used existing knowledge, personal experiences and current literature together with some of the material from the DentEd visits.
This paper heralds a new initiative to improve the rate of implementation of new and existing technologies within dental practice. The rationale behind the establishment of the Technology Transfer Network in Dentistry is described and the aims and intentions of the network are laid out. The relevance of the network to practising clinicians, scientists and manufacturers is described.
