Abstract

Background: Educational posters play a crucial role in education, information dissemination, and awareness. Their visual appeal efficiently communicates condensed yet vital information on significant topics, making them valuable for teaching sequential concepts. We aimed to assess the effectiveness of educational posters in the oral and maxillofacial surgery department for student education.

Methods: The study was carried out during the fall semester of 2022 at Mashhad Dental School, Mashhad, Iran utilizing a questionnaire-based approach. The questionnaire gathered demographic information and assessed students' perspectives on educational posters. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS version 23 with a significance level set at 0.05.

Results: This study was conducted on 70 students (35 females and 35 males). Gender-based analysis demonstrated significant differences in beauty, adaptability, and learning, with male students scoring lower than females (P values = 0.036 and 0.031, respectively). Further analysis by academic year unveiled higher beauty and adaptability scores among third-year students compared to second-year students, showing statistical significance (P value = 0.035). A two-by-two comparison highlighted that the average beauty score of third and fifth-year students surpassed that of second-year students (P values = 0.041 and 0.038, respectively). In summary, higher academic years correlated with superior performance, emphasizing the potential impact of educational posters on academic outcomes.

Conclusion: Posters in the oral and maxillofacial surgery department received commendable ratings in various areas, positively impacting the teaching and learning process.

评估口腔颌面外科海报作为口腔医学本科生教育辅助工具的效用:是无用还是有用?
背景:教育海报在教育、信息传播和提高认识方面发挥着至关重要的作用。海报的视觉吸引力能有效传达有关重要主题的简洁而重要的信息,使其在教授连续性概念方面具有重要价值。我们旨在评估教育海报在口腔颌面外科学生教育中的效果:本研究于 2022 年秋季学期在伊朗马什哈德的马什哈德牙科学校进行,采用问卷调查法。问卷收集了人口统计学信息,并评估了学生对教育海报的看法。统计分析采用 SPSS 23 版本,显著性水平设为 0.05:研究对象为 70 名学生(35 名女生和 35 名男生)。基于性别的分析表明,在美观度、适应性和学习能力方面存在显著差异,男生的得分低于女生(P 值分别为 0.036 和 0.031)。进一步的学年分析显示,与二年级学生相比,三年级学生的美感和适应性得分更高,具有统计学意义(P 值 = 0.035)。两两比较显示,三年级和五年级学生的平均美貌得分超过了二年级学生(P 值分别为 0.041 和 0.038)。总之,学年越高,成绩越好,这强调了教育海报对学习成绩的潜在影响:口腔颌面外科的海报在各方面都获得了好评,对教学过程产生了积极影响。
