Elevating and disseminating educational research is the core work of the Journal of Dental Education (JDE). Scholarly publishing often is an expectation for faculty career advancement at research universities, but is educational scholarship a priority within the academic dental community? Does published educational research drive curricular improvement, or are there other influences (i.e., CODA Standards)? How do different schools incentivize curricular innovation? What are barriers to curricular innovation and implementation? Join us for a facilitated discussion among several Deans and leaders in dental education.
Learning Objectives:
Describe how curricular change happens in dental school settings.
