Technology for Dental Learning

Learn how audiovisual tools, digital imaging and room design can support collaborative dental education.

Technology has the greatest educational value when it makes clinical information easier to see, compare, discuss and understand.

Original room context

UBC reported in 2011 that both rooms had the same technology and that large monitors improved how student groups learned together.

Common modern requirements

  • High-resolution display for radiographs, photographs and presentations
  • Reliable wired and wireless presentation options
  • Video-conferencing and microphone support
  • Accessible controls and clear instructions
  • Appropriate privacy safeguards for clinical teaching materials

Current inventory

The rooms' present equipment has not been independently verified and should be confirmed with UBC.
