Abstract

Introduction

To summarize the development of Innovative Undergraduate Dental Talents Training Project (IUDTTP) and investigate the training effect of this extracurricular dental basic research education activity from 2015 to 2020 to obtain educational implications.

Materials and Methods

The Guanghua School of Stomatology established the IUDTTP in 2015. The authors recorded the development process and analysed the participation situation, training effect, academic performance and overall satisfaction during 2015–2020 through documental analysis, questionnaire and quiz. The t-test, chi-square test and ANOVA were used to test the difference.

Results

The educational goal, education module and assessment system of IUDTTP evolved and developed every year. A total of 336 students and 79 mentors attended the IUDTTP from 2015 to 2020, with the participation rate increasing from 45.1% to 73.5%. The participants exhibited favourable basic research abilities, manifesting as the increase of funded projects and published papers and satisfying quiz scores. Almost all students (94.94%) admitted their satisfaction with the IUDTTP. Moreover, the attended students surpassed the non-participants in terms of GPA, the number of acquired scholarships and outstanding graduates (p < .05). Likewise, the enrolment rate of postgraduate participants was significantly higher than non-participants.

Conclusions

To date, the training effect indicated that the IUDTTP has fulfilled the education aim. It brought positive effects on promoting research interest, cultivating research capacities and enhancing academic performance. The potential deficiencies of extracurricular educational activities, including inflexibility in schedule and insufficiency in systematisms, may be remedied by more systematic educational settings in the future.

口腔医学本科创新人才培养项目的开发与培养效果：6年回顾性研究

引言总结口腔医学本科生创新人才培养项目（IUDTTP）的开展情况，探讨2015-2020年该课外口腔医学基础科研教育活动的培养效果，以获得教育意义：光华口腔医学院于2015年设立IUDTTP。作者通过文献分析、问卷调查和测验等方法记录了发展过程，并分析了2015-2020年期间的参与情况、培训效果、学术表现和总体满意度。结果：结果：IUDTTP的教育目标、教育模块和评估体系每年都在演变和发展。从2015年到2020年，共有336名学生和79名导师参加了IUDTTP，参与率从45.1%上升到73.5%。学员们表现出了良好的基础研究能力，表现为资助项目和发表论文的数量增加，测验成绩令人满意。几乎所有学员（94.94%）都表示对 IUDTTP 感到满意。此外，参加培训的学生在平均学分绩点（GPA）、获得奖学金的数量和优秀毕业生人数方面都超过了未参加培训的学生（p 结论）：迄今为止，培训效果表明，IUDTTP 实现了教育目标。它在提高研究兴趣、培养研究能力和提高学习成绩方面发挥了积极作用。课外教育活动可能存在的不足，包括时间安排不灵活、系统性不足等，可以通过今后更加系统的教育设置加以弥补。
