Generic Skill Extension Analysis of Dental Students Using the Prog Test-Development and Measurement and Evaluation of Generic Skills at the Time of Lower Grade Dentistry Education

Abstract

In recent years, it is required to train professional knowledge in higher education and foster the ability to be active as a generic skill called a generic skill. Although each ministry or agency defines this generic skill in various ways and advocates its necessity, it is an indispensable capability for dentists after graduation and training and evaluation of skills is also important in dental education. However, in dental education so far, it is insufficient in terms of nurturing generic skills throughout undergraduate course education. Also, knowledge, understanding and professional competence have been evaluated when evaluating the acquired learning outcomes, but high-level integrated capacities such as generic skills have not been evaluated. Therefore, in order to measure generic skills trained in dental education, we started the examination of PROG test for first year students from FY 2016. In order to verify whether the student who took the 2016 examination comprehensively examined whether the generic skills were trained by the studies at the university in comparison with the judgment result of the examination of the third year of 2018, only the area where the skill score improves according to the measurement area It is reported that there is a possibility that it can be utilized for nurturing generic skills of dental students.
