Abstract

The 61st Korean Academy of Pediatric Dentistry congress was hosted online for the first time in 2020 due to coronavirus disease-19. The congress was operated using the ZOOM platform. The aim of this paper is to analyze and evaluate the overall satisfaction and feedbacks from congress participants via anonymous Google Forms online survey. A test meeting was previously organized before the actual congress to facilitate the smooth process and the participants overall showed high satisfaction. Members who participated in test meeting compared to those who did not, found it significantly helpful, which contributed overall higher satisfaction with the online congress. Abstracts were accepted from the current pediatric dentistry residents and the oral presentations were also held online for the first time. The presenters and the judges were overall very satisfied. In an unguaranteed situation of termination of coronavirus disease-19, the decision to conduct an online congress was a favorable option.

코로나바이러스감염증-19로 인해 2020년 대한소아치과학회 제61회 종합학술대회 및 제54회 전공의 학술대회가 처음으로 온라인으로 진행되었다. 이번 학술대회는 ZOOM 플랫폼을 이용해 주최측의 독자적인 운영으로 진행되었다. 온라인 학술대회의 만족도 분석 및 평가를 위해 학회 참석자들을 대상으로 Google Forms을 이용해 무기명 설문조사를 시행하였다. 첫 온라인 학술대회 인만큼 학회 전 사전접속 테스트를 이용해 학회의 원활한 진행을 도왔으며, 그 결과, 사전접속 테스트가 도움이 되었을 경우 그렇지 않은 경우에 비해 온라인 학회에 만족할 가능성이 높았다. 첫 온라인 전공의 학술대회 또한 전공의 발표자들과 연자들에게 큰 호응을 얻어냈다. 온라인 학술대회는 종식 시기를 가늠할 수 없는 전염성 코로나바이러스감염증-19의 사회적 거리두기 및 방역수칙을 잘 반영한 좋은 선택이었다.
