Microteaching in dental education.
Health professionals acknowledge that their education does not prepare them for teaching. However, society's increasingly high expectations of them demand that they be taught teaching techniques/skills and trained effectively. Microteaching is a teaching-simulation exercise that will provide immediate supportive feedback. It can be useful in honing soft emotional intelligence skills, presentation skills, and interpersonal skills. This focused approach encourages growth through practice and critique. The "teach, critique, reteach" model gives the faculty member immediate feedback and increases retention by providing an opportunity to learn good teaching values.
