To adapt to the rapid changes in dentistry, this position is a natural extension of current growing activities in critical thinking, evidenced-based dentistry and patient assessment and treatment planning. As director, Dr. Marshall will be a resource and facilitator for faculty and College of Dentistry groups with missions of improving learning and critical thinking. Her activities will build on the strong foundation of firstyear programs to increase integration with the growing network of similar activities through the four years. Many of our faculty members already work with Professor Marshall, and this will offer an exciting opportunity to better coordinate the network of student learning.
