CLINICAL TEACHING
Teaching Characteristics
Teaching Behaviors
Teaching Style
Orientation Toward Students
Behaviors:
 Available
 Competent
skills
 Respect for students
 Information for students on how to improve
performance
 Clear communication
Categories of Effective
Teaching Behaviors
 evaluating
student performance
 maintaining conditions for clinical learning
 consideration for students
 knowledge of dentistry
 liking to teach
 application of knowledge of dentistry
 concern for teaching
Assessing Learning Styles
 self
directed or independent
 constant direction
 fact-oriented - student has little difficulty in
recalling info.
 concept-oriented - student has little
difficulty in problem solving
Teaching Behaviors that:
 psychologically
enhance the role of the
student
 technically enhance the role of the
instructor
CONTINGENCY
a three part relationship between a
stimuli, a response and a consequence
CONDITIONING(learning)
 behavior
is any kind of response;
observable or unobservable
 response is a reaction to a stimulus
 stimuli are features of the total environment
 consequence is a second stimulus
 Therefore learning is the process of
strengthening the association of the
response to given stimuli
Respondent Conditioning
 automatic
response
elicited by one
stimulus
 Pavlov’s dog
 i.e., feelings,
emotions, autonomic
nervous system
Operant Conditioning
 depends
on
subsequent effects of
consequences
 hungry animal presses
lever and receives a
food pellet; more
3 Categories of Contingencies
Reinforcement Contingency
 Increases
the probability of a behavior
 “Reward”
 Behavior will be repeated
Punishment Contingency
 decreases
the probability of a behavior
 causing to inhibit
 decrease or not repeat behavior
Extinction Contingency
 when
a responses met with no positive or
negative properties other than the stimulus,
then the behavior will likely be lost
 i.e.., loosing money in a vending machine
stimulus - response - consequence
Response generated stimuli are the
basis for the chains of behaviors that
underlie psychomotor learning.
stimulus - response - consequence
When responses are reinforced the
probability of them occurring in the
future is increased.
