Descrição
This study aimed to develop and assess a virtual learning object (VLO) on the subject of “luting agents”, focusing especially on zinc phosphate cement (ZPC). The methodology and the necessary tools to develop the VLO are described. Dental students (n=29) used this object for 15 days and completed a questionnaire in which they assessed it by using a 4-point scale. Developing the object allowed a virtual simulation of the manipulation of ZPC. The object received positive ratings from the students (4 points, 65.78%; 3 points, 14.85%). The software of choice enabled the combination of all media into one single VLO, which was widely accepted among dental students.
