Teaching language
PortugueseObjectives
The aim is to familiarize students with concepts related to the application of computers and information science in clinical practice and research, allowing the use of information technology in a productive manner throughout their education.
Acquire knowledge
- Applicability of Informatics in dentistry.
- Structuring and operating of some medical management programs and electronic medical records.
- Get acquainted with new technologies used in clinical dentistry (CAD-CAM systems, computerized surgical guides, CT scans conical beam).
Development of skills
- Quality rating of targeted health web content.
- Literature search on search engines/general databases targeted for health areas.
- Structuring articles, posters and scientific communications. Formatting of references/bibliography, and use of reference bibliographic management programs.
Learning outcomes and competences
The theoretical exposition of the syllabus followed by practical demonstrations allows the student, at the end of the course, to get knowledge, skills and competencies which enable the recognition of the importance of computers, clinical software, databases and information technologies in the context of dentistry.
The importance of unit issues and matters is apprehended by the students using theoretical and pratical and theoretical lectures of the syllabus accompanied by its practical demonstration. Practical works, relating the theoretical and its practical applications, allow the student to achieve the learning objectives.
