Abstract | Background: Small-group discussion seminars have been used before and after clinical sessions.
Before, students present to their peers and supervisor what and how they are going to perform
for that session. Supervisors questions and explore students understanding. After the clinical
session supervisors guide students discussion on reflection on their skills performance and what
new learning occurred.
Aim and objectives: To evaluate the benefits of the briefing and debriefing sessions from student
and staff perspectives
Materials and methods: Evaluation questionnaire and focus-group interviews were administered
for feedback from students and staff. A descriptive statistical analysis of the questionnaire was
performed followed by a thematic content analysis of transcriptions.
Results: 55 students (BDS 2020) completed the online questionnaire-100%. At the briefing before
the clinic, students reported the discussion provided a broader and a richer learning experience.
90-100% students strongly agreed: briefings allows clarification of clinical procedures, improved
clinical confidence, filled in knowledge gaps and that they learnt “something new”. Tutor
questioning in the briefing facilitated deeper understanding and reduced student confusion.
Hearing peers clinical presentations helped understand the treatment procedures and patient
care better (92.5%).Tutors reported briefing sessions to be “useful” in screening the cases
requiring more attention and to probe students’ understanding.
At the debriefing after the session, students reported peers presentations helped them acquire
broader clinical experience and knowledge (90.6%). Students reported learning from peers’
misconceptions and errors (86.8%) and that they learnt more from a group debriefing than an
individual one (71.7%). Also, supervisor questioning helped their knowledge and understanding
(83%). Students reported the debriefing was a “major learning part outside the clinical time”
providing a more reflective way of learning.
Conclusions: Briefing and debriefing discussion sessions were highly valued by students and staff.
These serve difference purposes and enhance and broaden learning and prepare students and
staff better for clinics. |
