Learning & Teaching Activities

Learning & Teaching Modes

The course will comprise both structured and self-directed learning. Hands-on small group tutorials will link to the specific case being undertaken by the students. Students will be required to develop a portfolio of guidelines.

Workload

The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.

Students will be required to attend weekly 2 hour tutorials in the clinical skills laboratory. Students will also be expected to assimilate learning from the Medical Personal and Professional Development tutorials, Case-based Learning tutorials and the didactic lectures provided throughout the course, as well as and directed and self-directed study and translate this learning to the weekly tutorials and required assignments. In Years 1-3, the standard total student workload for 24 units is 48 hours a week.

Learning Activities Summary

Students will be required to attend weekly 2 hour tutorials in the clinical skills laboratory. You will be given the learning objectives and the guidelines to be developed the week prior to the tutorial. This means that prior reading is compulsory. You will also required to develop a Portfolio of Clinical Guidelines. Each few weeks a different body system will be covered. Within the few weeks students will work through History Taking (HT), Physical Examination (PE), the relationship between HT and PE. Students will work with a tutor and Standardised Patients. There will be additional skills to be learnt – such as Blood Pressure – and these will also be assessable throughout the year, and in the end of year CS Practical Exam, the OSCE (observed structure clinical examination).

Specific Course Requirements

Students must meet the requirements set out in the letter of offer. As a medical student you will be registered with the Medical Board of 最新糖心Vlog. All commencing students in Medicine, Dentistry, Oral Health and Nursing will be required to obtain a satisfactory criminal history clearance (CHC). Information on acquiring the clearance is outlined in the letter of offer. Any other requirements will be advised.

The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:

Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
Assessment must maintain academic standards.

Assessment Summary

Assessment Related Requirements

Attendance

Students must learn and appropriately use a complex set of skills to
achieve the learning outcomes in the MBBS courses. These skills cannot be
learnt without repeated practice, constructive feedback and then practice
again. In addition, the professional competencies required of a medical professional
need to developed. Development of competency is through discussions,
observing, practicing and demonstrating. Attendance at the mandatory learning
activities is essential for the progressive development of the attributes and
competencies required of a medical professional. As such, attendance at core
structured learning activities is mandatory as per the Assessment for
Coursework Policy – Procedures Section 1c.

Students must attend 90% of the core structured learning activities to
achieve a pass in this course. Exemptions to mandatory attendance requirements
may be granted by the Program Coordinator in consultation with the relevant
course coordinator and year level advisor if there are exceptional medical,
compassionate or extenuating circumstances as defined by the Modified
Arrangements for Coursework Assessment Policy.

Core structured learning activities for this course are weekly clinical
practice tutorials, inter-professional learning sessions and simulation
centre sessions. Students are required to engage in the pre-reading activities.

Late Submissions

If an extension is not applied for, or not granted then a penalty for
late submission will apply. A penalty of 10% of the value of the assignment for
each calendar day that the assignment is late (i.e. weekends count as 2 days),
up to a maximum of 50% of the available marks will be applied.
This means that an assignment that is 5 days late or more without an approved
extension can only receive a maximum of 50% of the marks available for that
assignment.

Student Feedback

The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as GOS surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/) course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at the conclusion of each term/semester/trimester for every course offering. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data is available.

The MBBS Program has a regular program of evaluation. In addition, student representatives are appointed to MBBS committees and are encouraged to report on issues of importance to students.
Student Support

Fraud Awareness

Students are reminded that in order to maintain the academic integrity of all programs and courses, the university has a zero-tolerance approach to students offering money or significant value goods or services to any staff member who is involved in their teaching or assessment. Students offering lecturers or tutors or professional staff anything more than a small token of appreciation is totally unacceptable, in any circumstances. Staff members are obliged to report all such incidents to their supervisor/manager, who will refer them for action under the university's student鈥檚 disciplinary procedures.
