2How to Use EagleSoft: a clinical dental software- IU4The Instructional StrategyGoal StatementGiven the opportunity to adopt computer technology in the dental office, the dental hygienestudents will be able to demonstrate their ability to 1) review patients’ medical history 2)perform a clinical exam 3) chart existing restorations and dental probe readings 4) recordplaque scores, provide patient education, and fill out treatment plan, and 5) take digital x-raysusing Patterson EagleSoft.OverviewThus far, I have targeted the audience, developed the instructional goal, completed a taskanalysis, identified performance objectives, and developed assessment instruments; therefore,I am ready to develop the instructional strategy for this unit. The instructional strategy will beimportant to help the learners achieve their instructional goal. The learners’ goal will be to beable to use digital technology using Patterson EagleSoft. This instructional unit will consist ofthree parts.1. Instructional Strategy2. Media Selection and Delivery System3. First Draft of Instructional Materials (.pptx)

3How to Use EagleSoft: a clinical dental software- IU4I.Instructional Strategy-Observational LearningFor this instructional unit, I will utilize the Observational Learning Theory. Observationallearning, also known as Social learning, is implemented through four steps, 1)attention,2)retention, 3)reproduction, and 4)motivation. This theory was developed by Albert Bandura, apsychologist in Congnitive Theory. After performing one of his most important studies, thebobo doll studies, he concluded that learning occurs through observation, retention, andreplication of a certain task. Motivation then has to be implemented as the fourth step in orderto encourage the learners to want to replicate the same task.For this instructional unit, I will utilize this type of strategy because it relates to the intellectualskills performance that I expect from the target audience. The learners’ attention will becaptured by emphasizing the need for learning EagleSoft. During patient treatment, thetransition from paper charts to digital format is always very confusing and frustrating for thestudents because it causes them to slow down and, therefore, fall behind with clinicrequirements. The learners will appreciate an instructional unit that they can access outside ofthe clinic before providing patient treatment.Pre-Instructional Materials1. This instructional training will be uploaded into Moodle Management System.Moodle is an open-source learning management system that we use at Texas StateTechnical College for our students. It is a free web application site used by

4How to Use EagleSoft: a clinical dental software- IU4instructors to create online learning modules. The courses are uploaded into thiswebsite and therefore, the students are able to view everything from their courses,including the course syllabus, their schedules, assignments, etc. The students arealso able to communicate to their instructors through discussion forums especiallydesigned to ask questions about any concerns or issues. The students must be ableto access Moodle in order to view this instructional unit.2. Objectivesa. Access Patterson EagleSoft. The learners will log on to EaglesSoft using thecomputers in the Dental Hygiene Clinic cubicle when providing patienttreatment.b. Select Smart Doc. The learners will first collect all of their patients’ personalinformation and ask for permission from the patients to provide dentaltreatment. Patients will verify permission granted by signing the appropriateforms.c. Select Medical History. The learners will collect all appropriate medicalinformation from their patients including any medical concerns, medicationstaken, physician’s name and phone number, and dentist’s name and phonenumber.d. Select Clinical Exam. The learners will perform a thorough intra-oral and extraoral inspection of their patients. The learners will then document all findings inthe appropriate boxes.e. Select Charting. The learners will perform an inspection of their patients’ existingrestorations, including any proposed restorative treatment.f. Select Perio Charting. The learners will perform an inspection of their patients’current periodontal status. The learners will document any findings and comparethem to their patients’ last visit appointment.g. Obtain a Plaque Score and New Treatment Plan. After obtaining a plaque scoreand reviewing oral hygiene instructions for their patients, the learners willpropose a new treatment plan to the patients based on their needs. The patientswill confirm their agreement to the proposed treatment plan by signing it.

5How to Use EagleSoft: a clinical dental software- IU4h. Select Note History. The learners will document all of their patients’ findings,including assessment, medical history, dental history, concerns, needs, andtreatment provided throughout the appointment.3. The pre-requisite skills that were identified during the development of the in-depthanalysis are:a. Dental hygiene student. Learners need to be 2nd year students in the DentalHygiene Program and already be knowledgeable about providing patienttreatment and understand patient records.b. Basic computer concepts. Learners should be familiar with basic concepts likelogging in, keyboarding, etc.c. Launch EagleSoft Patterson software. Learners should know how to start theprogram. They will need to be familiar with logging in to Eaglesoft and be able toaccess the patient’s name from the Patient’s List which will be entered by ourfront desk secretary at the beginning of each clinic session.Content PresentationThe presentation will be sub-divided into 8 major tasks. Each task will be recorded usingCamtasia software. I have chosen Camtasia to develop the tutorial because it is very userfriendly and it will allow the learners to pause, stop, re-play, rewind, and forward the training asjudged convenient. The tutorial will have video and audio to guide the learners through thetraining. The training tutorial will then be uploaded to the students’ clinic course using Moodle.All of the students in the program should have access to Moodle, therefore, they will be able tolook at the tutorial when convenient for them and as many times as necessary. The tasks are asfollows:

Select Note History on toolbar. On the note history, select Auto Note tab. SelectProgress Notes Auto Note, record all findings and information gathered throughoutthe appointment.2. Save.Learner ParticipationThe major sources of this instructional unit will be Camtasia and Moodle. Considering that thelearners will have access to both, the training tutorial and Moodle, the learners will be able togo through the instruction as many times as they wish in order to successfully learn thematerial. The Camtasia tutorial will review each one of the tasks and subordinate skills, thus,allowing the students to follow and learn each step at their own pace.Learner FeedbackThe learners will provide feedback to the designer using the Moodle Management System. Thelearners will have discussion forums on Moodle allowing them to provide, both, positive andnegative feedback. These discussions will focus on the learners’ feelings towards theinstructional unit, the major difficulties they encountered, and any other confusion that thelearners might be experiencing with this lesson. This feedback will allow for modifications andcorrections to the instructional unit.
