11. Oral report: On Week 15 you will be asked to stand up in front of the class to briefly present what topic you chose for your report and key elements that you highlighted within your report. This allows you to share crucial information in regards to your topic with your class so they too can learn from it. Most importantly, this gives you the opportunity to refine your communication skills and confidence. These two elements are something that you will need during your career as a dental hygienist to effectively relate to your patients and staff.
