To know the effectiveness of a Game-Based Histopathology learning method.  To create a new Image oriented Game Based Histopathology slide reading method. To know the usefulness of the new method. To compare the conventional learning and game-based learning methods. Two groups of undergraduate students were tested with two different learning methods to identify pathology slide sections of four lesions. For each group, sixteen Undergraduate dental students were selected randomly. A game was created by using histopathology images of those four lesions, and circulated among the group one. The conventional method of slide reading was given to the group two. Both the group was tested for diagnosing the four pathology lesions through light microscopy spotter identification. Results were calculated accordingly. A questionnaire survey was done based on the pattern and pathology features oriented diagnostic capacity. Results of the questionnaire survey were also analyzed. Statistically, the results of both the two groups were analyzed. An Independent t-test was done and found out there was no significant difference between the two learning methods. The questionnaire survey revealed that the group learned through game-based pathology slide learning method learned the morphological features better than that of the conventional slide learning method. The image oriented game based pathology slide learning helps the undergraduate students to diagnose the pathology lesions with proper knowledge of morphological features than the conventional slide learning method, which is mainly pattern oriented. Though it is a very complicated procedure, the game based slide learning method is fun, creative and involves a majority of the student’s attention towards morphological features of any pathological lesions.

Objective: To determine the differences of self-perception of halitosis and oral hygiene practices among the medical and dental undergraduate students. Methodology: A cross-sectional study conducted over duration of 9 months amongst the medical and dental undergraduate students of Bahria University Medical and Dental College. The questionnaires were distributed to 298 students. Questionnaire employed for this study was adopted and modified from the study conducted by Khalid Almas et al. Descriptive statistics were checked by means of percentages and frequency for all variables. Chi-square test was applied to check significant difference among the responses given by the medical and dental undergraduate students. Results: The response rate for the survey was about 85%. 55% of dental and 17 % of medical students were able to smell their breath. About having examination by dentist about 73% of medical students agreed as compared to 53% of dental students. Both medical and dental students preferred having examination done by the dentist. For management of halitosis, dentist was preferred by 62% of the dental students, while 97% of the medical students did not agree. 62% of the dental students preferred using traditional medications, while 82% of the medical students preferred using self-medications for treatment. Conclusion: The results suggest that there is not a high level of agreement among dental and medical students concerning the detection and management of halitosis. Although large percent of the respondents claimed to be aware of dentistry, our findings revealed low level of knowledge and attitude to Dentistry by the medical undergraduate students. Efforts should be made towards closing this knowledge gap to attain effective oral health.

<p>Interaction that occurs in the classroom involves interaction between the teacher and students as well as students and students. One form of class interaction is communication. Communication that is continuously intertwined can also form relationships. A comfortable and pleasant classroom atmosphere is a hope for all class members so that learning objectives can be achieved and can form the class as a shalom community. During the practicum, the writer found that there was no interaction between grade 10 science-track students due to students' individualist attitudes. The teacher as an artist strives and plays a role in creating a pleasant classroom atmosphere through innovative learning methods. Therefore, the writing of this writing aims to find out if the method of learning while playing can build student interaction. The method of learning while playing is one of the innovative, creative, and beneficial learning methods used to increase student interaction and support the achievement of learning objectives. Based on the results of a survey of grade 10 science-track students and mentor feedback, the method of learning while playing using the "Snakes and Ladders" game was proven to be able to increase interaction and relationships between students. However, to see an increase in student interaction consistently, it cannot be measured through one application, but requires a longer time or process. In its application, the teacher also needs to pay attention to the types of educational games used to apply the learning method while playing.</p><p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT: </strong>Interaksi yang yang terjadi di dalam kelas melibatkan interaksi antara guru dan siswa maupun siswa dengan siswa. Salah satu bentuk interaksi kelas yaitu adanya komunikasi. Komunikasi yang secara terus menerus terjalin juga dapat membentuk relasi. Suasana kelas yang nyaman dan menyenangkan menjadi harapan bagi seluruh anggota kelas agar tujuan pembelajaran dapat tercapai serta dapat membentuk kelas sebagai komunitas <em>shalom.</em> Dalam masa praktikumnya, penulis mendapati tidak adanya interaksi yang terjalin di antara siswa kelas X-IPA disebabkan oleh sikap individualis siswa. Guru sebagai seorang seniman berupaya dan berperan untuk menciptakan suasana kelas yang menyenangkan melalui metode pembelajaran yang inovatif. Oleh sebab itu, tulisan ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui bahwa metode belajar sambil bermain dapat membangun interaksi siswa. Metode belajar sambil bermain merupakan salah satu metode pembelajaran yang inovatif, kreatif, dan bermanfaat untuk meningkatkan interaksi siswa serta menunjang tercapainya tujuan pembelajaran. Berdasarkan hasil survei terhadap siswa kelas X-IPA dan <em>feedback </em>mentor, metode belajar sambil bermain dengan menggunakan media permainan ular tangga terbukti dapat meningkatkan interaksi serta relasi antar siswa. Namun untuk melihat adanya peningkatan interaksi siswa secara konsisten, tidak dapat diukur melalui satu kali penerapan, namun membutuhkan waktu atau proses yang lebih lama. Dalam penerapannya, guru juga perlu memerhatikan jenis permainan edukatif yang digunakan untuk menerapkan metode belajar sambil bermain.</p>

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to compare visuospatial and psychomotor skills of second year pre-clinical dental students with final year dental students using an exercise in dentinal pin placement. METHODOLOGY:A total of 120 BDS undergraduate students who had completed second or final year Operative dentistry rotation were included. While students from second and final year who had not consented to participate or had missed the practical demonstration or whose dentinal pins were misplaced after becoming loose from the tooth were excluded. Participating students placed the dentinal pins, following which Adobe Photoshop (version CC 2014) was used to analyze the photographs of the taken radiographs in two dimensions. Parameters assessed were pulpal perforations, periodontal perforations and pin angulation. Independent sample t-test was used to compare continuous variables while chi-square test was used for testing association for categorical variables. RESULTS: Final year students fared better in all categories of pin placement except periodontal perforation which was the same for both years. Statistically significant difference in the angulation for pin placement were observed between the two student groups in mesiodistal direction (p value =0.001) and in buccolingual direction (p value <.001). CONCLUSION: There is a significant difference in the psychomotor and visuospatial skill of second year pre-clinical when compared with the final year clinical undergraduate students.
