Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
The Adelaide rural clinical school syllabus is an integrated, year-long, longitudinal, rural-based clinical attachment. It is delivered in rural training nodes either by rurally based specialists in Obstetrics and Gynaecology or GP Obstetricians. Each of the twelve ARCS rural training nodes delivers a unique HRH clinical placement, that is blended with the local community and hospital resources. Currently, there are specialists in Whyalla, Port Augusta and Port Pirie. HRH clinical placements are scheduled by the rural student coordinator throughout the year, as community-based, outpatient, inpatient, labour ward and operating theatre HRH learning activities.
The rural HRH education is provided through a combination of online and small group interactive tutorials within the students home community and as part of the ARCS orientation and midyear workshops. The rural students are also able to access a series of online lectures in obstetrics and gynaecology which will be added throughout the year. Case material and related formative assessment in HRH is provided as an eLearning resource to rural students through MyUni.
Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
Students are expected to join weekly Zoom tutorials each Tuesday from 1330 - 1500. You will need to engage in the relevant eLearning modules prior to the Zoom tutorials. This is a 6 unit course in which your workload is expected to be 24 hours per week. The majority of this time will consist of clinical placement in your rural site.

Assessment
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.

To pass this course and the Fifth Year MBBS Examination Annual Examination Part 2 course, students must obtain:
• a satisfactory result in each of the components of the summative assessment in semesters 1 and 2; and
• a satisfactory performance in the examinations overall
If an overall borderline grade is achieved in the examinations, a student may be offered an opportunity to sit a Replacement/Additional Assessment examination.
Academic Progression Requirements
Progression from one year to the next in the MBBS is dependent on the student successfully completing a compulsory annual examination course in which a full year’s learning is assessed.
To successfully complete the MEDIC ST 5000AHO and MEDIC ST 5000BHO Fifth Year MBBS Examination Part 1 and Part 2 courses, the student must pass the end of year examinations and have successfully completed all year level component courses (24 units).
IF a student fails the compulsory examination course no passing grade will be received for any core medical studies courses.
IF a student has not completed all required MEDIC ST units of the year they may be offered an appropriate remedial course of the same or greater value as specified in term 4 of the same academic year.Assessment Related Requirements
It is compulsory for students to attend clinical placements and their specific activities in line with the principles and guidelines outlined in the Medical Student Clinical Hours document.
Exemptions to mandatory clinical placement attendance requirements may be granted by the Education Lead 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.
The 最新糖心Vlog has developed a Scope of Practice document which outlines appropriate activities for Year 5 students. Students should be familiar with this document, and adhere to its guidelines. The document can be found in MyUni and .
Assessment Detail
HRH Recorded Mock Consult
This assessment evaluates your ability to perform a clinical consultation with a mock patient based on a provided scenario. It also asks you to self-evaluate to identify at least 2 SMART learning goals so that your practice continually improves (an essential skill for postgraduate trainees).
HRH Long Case Report
The purpose of the case report is to demonstrate that you have diligently attended to and accomplished deep understanding of a clinical presentation of your choice in the field of obstetrics and gynaecology (not neonatology).
Midwife Mini-Cex
A MiniCEX is a short workplace-based assessment where you are observed and assessed by your supervisor, in this case a midwife, and then given feedback.
You are encouraged to complete many MiniCEX assessments during your rural placement although you will only need to submit one to this course.
You can use your ARCS eForm to complete your miniCEX and upload the resulting pdf to this assignment.
Simulation Scenario Participation & PracticalThis assessment will take place with Dr Anna Kearney or other ARCS clinical educators during a simulation workshop in your site or another ARCS site.
Assessment will be made up of participation, a short practical test and MCQ quiz (20 questions, 30 minutes)

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.
A student course evaluation is completed online by all students at the end of the rotation. SELTS of individual teaching are done on a regular basis. -

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.
The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
