Abstract

Background: Mobile multimedia platforms (MMPs) are prolific tools that can be used by individuals and corporations to share content. However, few studies have shown the effectiveness of MMPs as educational tools. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of MMPs in improving basic dental diagnostic skills. Materials and Methods: In this voluntary interventional study on 70 dental students, we created pilot learning modules through an MMP called Instagram Stories to teach dental diagnosis. We evaluated the efficacy of the modules through diagnostic tests that were given to dental students. Results: The students showed a significant increase in diagnostic test scores after the use of an MMP. Furthermore, the students' feedback on the MMP indicated that most students found it easy and enjoyable to use. Conclusion: Our study data show that MMPs may be used to improve training in basic dental diagnostic skills and can serve as an adjunct teaching tool. Moreover, MMP modules can potentially enrich professional education in developing countries where access to educational resources is limited.

利用移动多媒体平台开展放射诊断教学

背景：移动多媒体平台（MMP）是一种多用途工具，个人和企业都可以利用它来共享内容。然而，很少有研究显示移动多媒体平台作为教育工具的有效性。研究目的评估移动多媒体平台在提高基本牙科诊断技能方面的有效性。材料与方法：在这项针对 70 名牙科学生的自愿干预研究中，我们通过名为 Instagram Stories 的 MMP 创建了试点学习模块，用于教授牙科诊断。我们通过对牙科学生进行诊断测试来评估这些模块的效果。结果显示使用 MMP 后，学生们的诊断测试成绩有了明显提高。此外，学生们对 MMP 的反馈表明，大多数学生都认为它易于使用且令人愉快。结论我们的研究数据表明，MMP 可用于提高基本牙科诊断技能的培训，并可作为一种辅助教学工具。此外，MMP 模块有可能丰富教育资源有限的发展中国家的专业教育。
