目的 本研究的主要目的是了解巴基斯坦各口腔院校开设的口腔专业本科生在线课程的自我报告效果。材料和方法 采用在线调查的方法进行横断面研究。一份由31个问题组成的预测和验证问卷在牙科学生中传阅。研究参与者被问及对资源可获得性的感知水平和在线教学的有效性。用SPSS Version 24统计软件对数据进行分析。≤检验采用U检验和Kruskal-Wallis检验。结果 来自巴基斯坦各地的1,207名学生做出了回应。大部分学生对院校的学习管理制度和现有学习资源的质量表示不满。学生们也对在线讲座教师的培训水平感到不满。与在线课程有效性有关的问题得分最低(平均得分分别为3.83%和3.781/5)。一年级学生反映与教师的互动较差(P<；0.001)，并强烈不同意网络课程的有效性(平均分：4.14±0.935)。结论 本次调查结果显示，巴基斯坦牙科学生一致对在线教学的各种内容表示不满。本次调查的结果将有助于学术机构建立精通的学习平台，专注于改善学生的学习体验。
Objectives The main aim of this study was to determine the undergraduate dental students’ self-reported effectiveness of online classes offered by various dental institutes of Pakistan. Materials and Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted using an online survey. A pretested and validated questionnaire comprising of 31 questions was circulated among dental students. The study participants were inquired about the perceived level of accessibility of resources and the effectiveness of online teaching. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 24. Mann–Whitney U test and Kruskal–Wallis test were used for statistical analysis at p ≤0.05. Results A total of 1,207 students from all over Pakistan responded. The majority of students was dissatisfied with the institutional learning management system and quality of learning resources available. Students were also dissatisfied with the level of training of teachers for online lectures. The worst rating was reported for questions related to the effectiveness of online classes (average rating: 3.83 and 3.781/5). First-year students reported poor interaction with teachers ( p < 0.001) and strongly disagreed with the effectiveness of online classes (mean rating: 4.14 ± 0.935). Conclusions The results from the present survey showed that dental students of Pakistan unanimously voiced dissatisfaction toward various elements of online teaching sessions. Findings from this survey will aid the academic institutes to establish proficient learning platforms focused on improving students` learning experience.
