Ideological and Political Education in Courses for Master's Degree Students in Oral Medicine:Questionnaire Survey and Analysis
Objective:To explore the perceptions and future needs of master's degree students in oral medicine regarding ideological and political education(IPE)in core professional courses.Methods:A survey was conducted using questionnaires among 129 master's degree students in oral medicine from the 2019-2021 cohorts at the School of Stomatology,Chongqing Medical University.Results:Ninety-three(72.09%)oral medicine master's students believed it is necessary to incorporate IPE into courses,mainly because they think IPE helps shape correct values and worldviews(75.27%);thirty-six(27.91%)students felt it is unnecessary,with twenty-four of them(68.57%)believing that dedicated political theory courses are sufficient without needing additional IPE in oral medicine courses.Eighteen(51.43%)worried that including IPE content would reduce time for professional course learning,and only three(8.57%)believed that professional courses in oral medicine and IPE are entirely unrelated.Among the current IPE courses offered in the School of Stomatology,students rated the Department of Preventive Dentistry as having the best implementation of IPE(20.16%).Students'expectations for future IPE included suggestions on both teaching staff and course formats,with 54.26%hoping teachers would integrate IPE appropriately rather than forcefully,60.46%advocating for diverse classroom formats,and 84.50%favoring the introduction of offline teaching modes.Conclusion:Although the acceptance of IPE among oral medicine master's students is relatively high,reforms are needed to improve teacher quality and update teaching methods.This aims to better integrate ideological and political education into professional courses,providing a reference for IPE research in the graduate education of oral medicine in China,ultimately achieving the goal of cultivating high-quality professionals in oral medicine.
