Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the teaching efficiency of clinical training for dental hygiene students in Gyeonggi Province. The subjects in this study were 371 dental hygiene juniors in seven different colleges in Gyeonggi Province, on whom a self-administered survey was conducted. The collected data were analyzed with a SPSS WIN 12.0 program, and the findings of the study were as follows: 1. The teaching efficiency of clinical training that the dental hygiene students undergone was on the average. As for evaluation of the factors of teaching efficiency, they gave the highest marks to the role model factor(3.40). 2. The size of the institutions where they received clinical training made no statistically significant differences to the teaching efficiency of their clinical training. The university hospitals ranked first in professional knowledge, one of the sub-directory of teaching efficiency, and the gap between them and the others was statistically significant(p=.005). 3. Concerning links between satisfaction level with the major and view of teaching efficiency, stronger satisfaction with the major led to better perception of teaching efficiency(p=.001). Among the subdirectory of teaching efficiency, that made statistically significant differences to view of interpersonal skills, performance as a supporter, fair evaluation, academic organization skills(p=.005), encouragement and support, teaching methods, professional academic knowledge(p=.001), communicative competency, performance as a role model and cooperation with the staff of dental clinics(p=.000). 4. There were no statistically significant gaps in teaching efficiency according to teaching styles. Among the sub-directory of teaching efficiency, statistically significant differences were found only in encouragement and support(p=.005). The above-mentioned findings suggest that the teaching efficacy of the clinical training was approximately on the average, and that a better satisfaction with the major led to a higher teaching efficacy. Therefore a wide variety of teaching methods and systematic training programs should be developed to boost the quality of clinical training to improve its teaching efficacy.
본 연구에서는 경기도 지역 치위생과 학생들의 현장임상실습교육에 있어 교수효율성을 파악하기 위하여 2010년 4월 12일부터 4월 26일까지 경기도에 소재한 7개 대학의 치위생과 3학년 학생 371명을 대상으로 자기기입식 설문법을 실시하였으며, SPSS WIN 12.0 프로그램을 이용하여 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 치위생과 학생의 임상실습교육 교수효율성은 '중' 정도인 것으로 나타났고, 교수효율성 요인에 대한 평가는 역할모델 요인이 3.40점으로 가장 높았다. 2. 임상실습기관 규모에 따른 교수효율성은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었고, 교수효율성 하위영역에서는 전문적 지식요인이 대학병원에서 가장 높았고, 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보였다(p=.005). 3. 치위생 전공만족도에 따른 교수효율성은 전공만족도가 높을수록 교수효율성이 높았고(p=.001), 교수효율성 하위영역에서는 대인 관계술, 원조자로서의 기능, 공정한 평가, 교과에 대한 조직력(p=.005), 격려와 지지, 교수법, 교과에 대한 전문적 지식(p=.001), 의사소통술, 좋은 역할모델, 치과직원과의 협조(p=.000)에서 통계적으로 유의하였다. 4. 현장임상실습 교수유형에 따른 교수효율성은 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 없었고, 교수효율성 하위 영역에서는 격려와 지지 항목에서만 통계적으로 유의하였다(p=.005). 이상의 결과를 종합해 볼 때 현장임상실습교육에 관한 교수효율성은 '중' 정도인 것으로 나타났고, 전공만족도가 높을수록 교수효율성이 높음을 알 수 있으므로, 교수효율성을 높이기 위해서는 다양한 교수법 및 체계적인 실습프로그램이 개발되어 임상실습교육의 질을 높여야 할 것이다.
