    The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a study level announcement system in motivating undergraduate dental students to practice clinical simulation material in e-learning. A study level announcement system was developed and implemented into the e-learning system at Tokyo Medical and Dental University. The learning records of students in 2015 who had used the study level announcement system during a computer assisted simulation training course (n=42) were compared with those of students in 2014 who did not use the system (n=40). In addition, to evaluate the system, a questionnaire was conducted on the 2015 students. The results showed that the 2015 students practiced significantly more frequently in the first half of the course (p<0.05), and that the 2015 female students practiced significantly more materials in the second half of the course than the 2014 female students (p<0.01). The students who evaluated the system positively practiced significantly more materials (p<0.05) than the students who evaluated the system negatively. The study level announcement system developed in the present study motivated the self-regulated learning of clinical simulation materials in e-learning outside the classroom for dental undergraduate students, especially females.

    The aim of this report is to assess and introduce the new dental educational course on clinical expertise which has been established at Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU), named “Essential Expertise for Clinical Dentistry” (EECD). Designed to offer lectures and hands-on learning experiences to dental professionals, it has been offered to graduate students at TMDU since 2016. Enrollment in the 4 hands-on sessions of the course in 2016 was 18, 13, 21, and 19; and in the 3 hands- on sessions of the course in 2017 was 14, 15, and 14, respectively. Post questionnaire-surveys were conducted following hands-on sessions to assess students’ overall satisfaction with the course, including explanations given by the instructors, session style, instructors’ English proficiency, materials and instruments, and the need for such a course in the participants’ home countries. The respondents provided favorable feedback for all the survey items, which revealed their learning interests and needs regarding clinical dental education, and the possible demand for this type of course internationally. Therefore, we can say that there is a significant need for courses like EECD, which provide life-long learning opportunities for dental professionals worldwide. There are plans to make the EECD course available worldwide someday in the future.
