(Annexure –v) Manav Rachna Dental College Student Feedback Pilot Study Introduction: A pilot study to understand the outlook of students towards academics was conducted during July 2016. The respondents were BDS students of 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015 intake as well as Interns of 2010 and 2011 intake. 83 responses were obtained and were analysed altogether. This was a pre-cursor to a more detailed study that will have a larger number of respondents so that the response can be analysed batch-wise. All learnings of the pilot study will be incorporated in the design of the later detailed study. The questionnaire was administered to groups of the students in a class room environment. The answers were given individually by each respondent on his/her own. Due to inadequate briefing, this being the first and pilot study, one of the questions was not answered properly and, therefore, the response to that question has not been analysed. Of the 83 respondents 70 were BDS students and the remaining 13 Interns. Findings: Most respondents want to do post-graduation after completing their BDS/Internship. The following table indicates their preferred option: Work at Clinic 10%
Work at Hospital 17%
Post-graduation 59%
Others 13%
No reply 1%
94% of the respondents believe that the course they are undergoing will help them achieve their goal. The small number disagreeing has only personal reasons. Endo and Oral Surgery are highly liked subjects. DADH and Oral Pathology are liked moderately. Ortho and Prostho have equal preferences both in favour and against. General reasons for liking a subject are a) Having more clinical work, b) Found useful (in practice probably) and c) Good Faculty. Though it is not clear how students determine what is useful. On the other hand, the reasons for disliking the subjects are a) Boring, b) Difficult subject, c) Not useful and d) Bad faculty. Most respondents acknowledge that their attendance could be improved. 85% of the respondents gave reasons for low attendance (<50%). 21% said the class timing was not right or the classes started too early. 12% each had been unwell, engaged more in the AQAR 2015-16 IQAC

extra-curricular activities and lived far away having transport problems respectively. Other reasons given were studying for supplementary and hot weather. 30% of the respondents believed they tended to miss classes for some subjects more. The major subjects where attendance was poorer were Anatomy, Dental Materials, Clinical subjects in general, DADH and Paedo. Respondents tended generally to be ambivalent towards extra-curricular activities. Nearly a quarter do not participate in any. While over 80% would like more extra-curricular activities to be made available, only half would spend more time on extra-curricular activities than they do presently. The following table indicates the relative importance respondents give to choices given to them for better understanding of a subject. Choices Knowledge of teacher Prior distribution of notes Participation of students Small class size (<20) Language of instruction Hindi
% Respondents ranking first 74.7 13.9 7.6 1.2 2.5
Overall weighted score 8.2 5.4 5.1 3.2 2.5
While respondents give the highest importance to the knowledge of the teacher, small class size and teaching in Hindi are much less important than prior distribution of notes and participation of students. More than two thirds of the respondents gave suggestions. Major suggestions were 1) some or all Saturdays should be off (22%), 2) Air-conditioning should be improved particularly in labs (14%), 3) More patients are required (7%). They also asked for leniency on attendance norms, more extra-curricular activities and a change in college timings. Some other useful comments were a) More audio-visual aids in teaching, b) Stationery shops on campus, c) Notes to be given in advance, d) Better orientation with career opportunities and e) Leaves to be granted when genuinely required.

Conclusions: 1. The reason for opting for post-graduation as the future course of action may be due to not enough confidence in what is learned. It may also be because of a lack of clarity on how to run oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own clinic or work in a hospital independently. 2. While the quality of faculty does appear as one of the reasons for both liking and disliking a subject, other factors such as need for the subject, clinical work and interest in the subjects point to the aspects of good or bad teaching which can be considered in improving the quality of input to the students. 3. Fact that the students can acknowledge poor attendance easily and give reasons which can be easily dealt with, indicates that specific effort is required in building academic inclination in the students. For a professional course like dentistry, it should be possible to accomplish it. 4. Involving students themselves somehow to improve participation in learning seems to be the way to go. Work is required to be done in developing suitable methodologies. 5. While suggestions offered by the students may appear a bit far-fetched, one can work on their areas of concern to somehow lessen their negative impact. Otherwise, students will continue to justify their lack of interest in academic endeavours to themselves using these. Further, there seem to be some sporadic decent suggestions worth pursuing.

Best Practices New Best Practices:(Implemented after the NAAC Peer review visit) I - Horizontal integration of BDS Course Teaching II - Postgraduate Rural Training Program Old Best Practices:(Implemented before the NAAC Peer review visit) III â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Integrated Clinical Case Presentation for undergraduate / post graduate students. IV- Evidence Based Literature Analysis New Best Practices (Implemented after the NAAC Peer review visit) 1. Title of the Practice: Horizontal integration of BDS Course Teaching 2. Goal: To simplify the teaching and training of common dental diseases encountered (As per University course syllabus). 3. The context: There are dental topics which are taught in a progressive manner by various specialties of dentistry. For example Dental cysts and Tumors. This topic is taught by three specialties. Oral pathology in 3rd BDS Course and by Oral Medicine & Radiology and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery in the final BDS Course. Similarly Malocclusion is taught by two specialties i.e. Paedodontics and Orthodontia & Dentofacial Anomalies in the final year. 4. The Practice: The common topics are identified and a list is prepared. When these topics are taught the concerned teachers of all the specialties are present and in turn deliver the lectures with Aetiology, Pathology, Histology Diagnosis, Immunology, Treatment Planning and complications. Presently, the method being followed is that the topic is taught by the individual specialty with a dedicated separate timetable. The same topic being tackled by different faculty of different specialties at one time leads to clarity of the subject, which has been achieved by this practice. 5. Evidence of Success: In the class tests, students showed better clarity of the subject. It is only the examination which will provide the final evidence. 6. Problems Encountered and Recourses Required: Problems encountered - The Dean UG study has to consult the faculty of the various specialties who are required at the same time with teaching aids. At times it was found that all the faculty were not available and the teaching schedule was modified accordingly. Assessment of these topics may require more attention by the concerned faculty of the different specialties. 7. Contact Details : Dr. Vandana Srikrishna Chadha

Best Practice – II Title of the Practice – Postgraduate Rural Training Program Objective of the Practice – Train postgraduate dental students and facilitate creation of community based patient- student groups in order to help in bridging gaps in trust towards our institution. The Context – According to the 2011 census of India, Faridabad had a population of 1,809,733 people and a literacy rate of 81.7 percent. It has a total of 149 villages and 3 towns. In school dental health programs conducted in the district by Manav Rachna Dental College, we found the prevalence rate of dental caries in deciduous teeth as 77.83 percent and in permanent teeth as 89.96 percent. Oral disease is a major healthcare problem in India. It causes a loss of 1,247 disability adjusted life years. Globally, the economic impact of dental disease amounted to USD 442billion in 2010 which was 4.6 percent of the global health expenditure. The dental caries prevalence rate has been described as close to 100 percent by the WHO. Increase in oral healthcare service utilization will be helpful in significantly reducing the burden of oral disease in the community. Lack of trust in oral health care, along with lack of awareness of oral healthcare needs are two major causes of under-utilization of health facilities. Teaching hospitals may utilize students and train them in order to facilitate improvement in patient’s trust on oral health care facilities and subsequently improve utilization of oral health care. The Practice – Twenty target areas were finalized within 10 km of the institution premises based on positive engagement with the community leaders and pilot tested for feasibility. Panchayati Raj system of rural governance in India allows local governance through a head elected by the people. The primary point of contact was the panchayat head of the village. In urban areas the primary point of contact was the area councilor. During this period, the local organizational heads like school principals, NGO workers etc were also approached with the help of the community leader. The MRDC team consisted of a 1st year post graduate dental student [from all the dental specialties] as team leader along with two interns, one attendant and a driver for each site. The post graduate team leader had the entire responsibility for the administration and working of the designated target area. The team leader was trained offsite and onsite by the faculty of the department of Public Health Dentistry before and during the program as well at periodic intervals.

At a given target area, the activities started with a community sensitization for oral health or general health related information through door to door visits by the designated MRDC team along with the community leader or his/her representative. It also included information regarding the time and venue of the dental screening to be held on the next day. On the next day a dental screening program was conducted for three hours. Those with dental treatment needs were referred to MRDC and were informed about the time and pick up point for the free bus service. The free bus service started from the next day and was continued on the same weekday from then onwards till the patient turn up reduced to less than 10 patients. On the third day, when the patients arrived at MRDC, their point of contact was the team leader at their site. The same 3 day cycle of activities was repeated at the same site after every 15 days. Evidence of Success â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Evidence of impact was provided by various quantitative and qualitative parameters for evaluation of the program. The primary evidence was an increase in number of persons attending community oral health camps organized by MRDC. There was also an increase in utilization of dental services by the community. This was reflected through an increase in the OPD at the institute due to the program. This could be attributed to improvement of trust in oral healthcare due to community engagement during the program. Additionally, the positive attitude of the community, community leaders and postgraduate students participating in the program also provided evidence for a successful program.
