Description¶

The article proposes a model in which a coaching approach enhances endodontic education 'by increasing their self‐efficacy and empowering students to take personal responsibility for their learning'. It operates on two timescales: coaching in the moment during clinical teaching sessions, and coaching over time in periodic development reviews away from the chairside. Both are structured around the GROW model and deliberately target Bandura's four sources of self-efficacy.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

A relationship of absolute trust between coach and student, with clarified roles, expectations and goals
An environment of psychological safety created for the coaching conversations

Constraints¶

No published investigations specifically address the use of coaching in endodontics, and there are no recommended models; the model is a proposal, not a tested intervention
Coaching over time has, as yet, only been reported in medicine, not dentistry

Target Learners¶

Undergraduate and postgraduate endodontic students

Learning Goals¶

Clinical skills acquisition and performance in endodontics
Self-efficacy and personal responsibility for learning
