The event drew dental hygiene faculty from 10 countries who presented seminars and workshops throughout the week. Ms. Tuthill presented a seminar on "Dental Hygiene Education and Practice in the U.S." and a workshop on "Building Critical Thinking." Professor Barrow presented a seminar on "Dental Health Programs in Barbados," which included the results of the 2004 World Health Organization's oral health survey, and a workshop on "Human Motivation and Cultural Considerations." Also shown in the photo are Ms. Jenny Miller (far left), of the University of Adelide in Australia, and Ms. Marilyn Cortell (second from left), of New York City Technical College. |
