Virtual Reality (VR), 3D and 2D technology tools have been developed and used in the dental curriculum. But, which method is best for student learning? Effectiveness, efficiency and student attitudes of VR, 3D and 2D tools based on interventions with DDS and graduate students in different areas in the curriculum including dental anatomy, radiology and orthognathic surgery, will be presented. Participants will learn about off-the-shelf technology tools that can be immediately incorporated into the curriculum and used for student assessments. Participants will brainstorm on how to acquire and incorporate the most effective technology tools for their specific courses and subjects.
