Factors influencing the agreement between teachers and students in the assessment of preclinical endodontics using a rubric

Educational factors in Endodontics such as anatomical difficulty, mechanized instrumentation system, and level of training did not influence the total scores of preclinical RCT by teachers or students. Agreement for RCT total scores ranged from moderate to substantial. The strongest agreement was observed in obturation, while access cavity yielded the lowest. The rubric as an assessment tool in Endodontics teaching is recommended.
