Curriculum transformation is a guiding principle and driving force to continued institutional growth and innovation in oral health education. The transformation process starts from the need and desire for change to achieve the strategic goals of curriculum invocation. The design and implementation process must follow a systematic approach to ensure the oral health curricula are meeting the demands of preparing learners for their future careers and are in line with the institutional strategic goals and processes. The process of curriculum transformation needs to be carefully crafted and implemented to include all constituents and have clear and measurable outcomes to define its path and results. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Adams School of Dentistry is undergoing the journey of oral health curriculum innovation and transformation. The goal of this paper is to describe the change management process using Kotter's organizational model that may apply to other schools aiming to innovate dental curricula.
课程改革是口腔健康教育持续发展和创新的指导原则和驱动力。改革过程始于改变的需要和愿望，以实现课程改革的战略目标。设计和实施过程必须遵循系统方法，以确保口腔卫生课程满足培养学习者未来职业的需求，并符合机构的战略目标和过程。课程改革的过程需要精心设计和实施，包括所有组成部分，并具有明确和可衡量的结果，以确定其路径和结果。北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校亚当斯牙科学院正在进行口腔卫生课程创新和改革的征程。本文的目的是描述使用科特的组织模型进行的变革管理过程，该模型可能适用于其他旨在创新牙科课程的学校。
