Community-based field experiences (CBFE) provide students with exemplary experiential learning opportunities. The purposes of this paper are to describe the University of Kentucky College of Dentistry (UKCD) CBFE and report the results of a two-year, self-report survey that assessed the primary course goal, students' perceptions of change in knowledge and skills related to nineteen areas of patient care (n = 90, 100% return rate), and their overall rating of the program. Knowledge and skill data were analyzed using the non-parametric binomial test for comparing proportions. A significant (.05 level) majority of students reported increases in knowledge in all areas to which they were exposed. Descriptive frequencies summarizing the results of the total CBFE experience indicate that the majority of students felt it was a positive experience. The CBFE continues to be a meaningful element in the UKCD curriculum as it provides students with a relevant, authentic educational experience.
基于社区的实地体验（CBFE）为学生提供了绝佳的体验式学习机会。本文旨在描述肯塔基大学牙科学院（UKCD）的CBFE，并报告一项为期两年的自我报告调查结果，该调查评估了主要课程目标、学生对与19个患者护理领域相关的知识和技能变化的看法（n = 90，回复率100%）以及他们对该项目的总体评价。使用非参数二项式检验分析知识和技能数据以比较比例。绝大多数（0.05水平）学生报告称，他们接触的所有领域的知识都有所增加。总结整个CBFE体验结果的描述性频率表明，大多数学生认为这是一次积极的体验。CBFE仍然是UKCD课程中有意义的一部分，因为它为学生提供了相关的、真实的教育体验。
