“…Excellence in role modeling hinges on the demonstration of high standards of clinical competence, quality clinical teaching skills, and the humanistic personal qualities of the trainers. 24,25 Over the last three decades, literature in medical education has emphasized the changing role of teachers from information providers to learning facilitators. 26 However, data from the current study suggest that the participants placed significant reliance on the role of PBL facilitators and faculty staff as an authentic source of knowledge.…”

The study explored dental students' perception of their professional identity (PI) development at a newly established dental college with a problembased learning (PBL) curriculum. Methods:Qualitative methods based on focus groups were used for data collection. The conceptual framework of the study was informed by a subject-centered sociocultural approach to PI development. Purposive sampling was used to collect data from five focus groups of undergraduate dental students to gain a deeper understanding of their PI development in a PBL environment. Results: Out of a total of 38 dental students in years 2 and 3, 34 students (89.47%) participated in the focus groups. A theory-driven thematic analysis was used to dissect the views and experiences of the participants to explore factors contributing to PI development in the early years of the program. At an individual level, PBL was seen to be appropriate for PI development. However, some participants placed more emphasis on practical training in operative dental skills. Relational sources especially role modeling by the PBL facilitators and faculty staff were identified as a key factor to nurture PI development. Mixed views were observed on the value of PBL to enhance team-working skills. The participants also identified challenges of PBL and provided recommendations on further improvements to enhance the learning experiences of the students. Conclusions:This study provided useful insights into a PBL curriculum at a newly established dental institution. The findings underscore the value of PBL in developing PI and also highlight the challenges of implementing PBL in a sociocultural context and pedagogical implications for further program improvement.

“…Students see teaching role models as being able to provide a constructive learning environment, a good understanding of the curriculum, and an ability to cater to the learning needs (Burgess et al 2015). Furthermore, role models influence students' decisions on their future careers (Mohammadi et al 2020). Medical teachers can enhance their status as role models by developing a conscious awareness of role modelling (Passi et al 2013;Mohammadi et al 2020).…”

“…According to this theory, effective learning occurs by observing others' actions and outcomes of their behaviors [1]. Since a good role model plays a signi cant role in training a good physician, it is required to take a holistic view on this topic and also to gain more knowledge about clinical teachers' perceptions of themselves as role models [5,6]. Exploring clinical teachers' perceptions of role modeling can provide valuable information about role modeling behavior to other clinical educators [7].…”

Background: Role modeling has been significantly considered in medical education in recent decades. In the clinical course, students learn necessary skills and accordingly their professional identity is formed by observing and working among clinical educators. Given the importance of the role modeling in medical education, in the present study, it was attempted to explore the clinical teachers' perceptions of being a role model for medical students using a qualitative method. Methods: A qualitative design, based on the content analysis approach, was used to analyze the perspectives of 15 clinical teachers. Participants were chosen by purposeful sampling. Data were collected using reflection paper writing. Results: During the data analysis, five main themes emerged: influencing others, developing different dimensions of student, situational self-awareness, feedback and continuous effort.Conclusions: This study will be useful to form role modeling educational programs. Encouraging clinical teachers to make continuous efforts to improve role modeling and educating time management and self-control skills can help reduce the challenges of role modeling for clinical teachers.
