Incorporating technology resources into a curriculum can be challenging. This session will introduce you to two new online resources available for both faculty and students. The Dental Educators Network will help you adopt the “flipped classroom,” resulting in a more active and engaging environment, desirable for millennial students. The Gum Health Physical is a communication tool that will aid students in providing engaging dialogue while educating and motivating patients to change their oral health behaviors.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify how to use the Educators Network in the classroom to enhance learning.
• Demonstrate use of the Gum Health Physical for sharing patient education.
• Summarize the value of each resource in their educational institution.
