What does diversity mean to you? There’s no simple answer — it means different things to different people. The best way to learn is to talk to as many different types of people as you can #ADEA2018

“Learning cultural competency is a lifelong process. It’s okay if you mess up. Just apologize, redo it the right way, learn from that experience, & move forward.” #ADEA2018

“We conducted a study to evaluate the perceptions of dental students receiving instruction from residents rather than faculty members. The students felt that the residents were approachable & helpful. The residents felt that it was a valuable experience for them, too.” #adea2018

Richard Sweeney discovered that millennials want their materials as fast as possible, to work in groups, & have short attention spans due to multi media immersion. They want to be flexible & creative with more learning alternatives — one size does not fit all #ADEA2018
