Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to provide useful basic data for improving the quality of problem-based learning (PBL) to improve integrated thinking and problem-solving skills in clinical dental hygiene through in-depth exploration of the experiences of dental hygiene students trained in PBL modules.
Methods: A total of nine participants were selected based on the grade distribution of clinical dental hygiene. Three participants each were from the upper, middle, and lower groups. A focus group interview (FGI) was conducted using a developed questionnaire. All contents of the recorded FGI were used to draw the main results while maintaining the core contents
Results: The themes derived through the FGI were confirmed by ‘advantages of PBL’, ‘competencies developed through PBL’, ‘teamwork experienced in PBL’, ‘required competencies for PBL team activities’, ‘differences in contribution among team members’, ‘satisfaction with PBL’, ‘improvements to PBL’, and ‘trial and error experienced in PBL’.
Conclusions: The PBL was a useful for improving the integrated thinking and problem-solving skills of dental hygiene students. Moreover, this study provides useful basic data for the qualitative improvement of the PBL.
