The dental students provided oral health information and distributed stickers, bracelets, pencils, brushing calendars and magnets to over 600 children parading through in their Halloween costumes. The children had the opportunity to brush the teeth of the various puppets and interact with the dental students. The annual event has become a popular Iowa City tradition, and the College of Dentistry s students have been notable participants for several years.

November s webinar, Why Throw Students to the Wolves: Maximizing Outreach Program Value, features content and presenters from one of the most highly rated educational session at the 2013 ADEA Annual Session & Exhibition. Why Throw Students to the Wolves: Maximizing Outreach Program Value November 8, 2013 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time Online 1.0 CE Description: A universal challenge of community-based dental education (CBDE) programs is enhancing dental education experiences for students at remote sites designed to efficiently provide dental care to diverse and underserved populations. These seemingly conflicting goals often lead to a less than ideal student learning environment resulting in symbolically throwing our students to the wolves. Learning Objectives: Participants of this webinar will be able to identify assessment tools appropriate for developing and continuously improving off-campus clinical sites, measure student performance, competency, and create positive self-assessment using andragogical concepts applicable to a community based dental educational setting, and create opportunities to provide IPE experiences in off-campus clinical sites. Presenters: Mark Fitzgerald, D.D.S., M.S.; Howard Hamerink, D.D.S.; Bill Piskorowski, D.D.S.; University of Michigan Register at: http://online.krm.com/iebms/reg/reg_p1_form.aspx? oc=10&ct=00300021&eventid=20862.
