SUMMATIVE ASSESSMENT

DENTAL SCIENCE AND PRACTICE III (DENT3005AHO/BHO)

HURDLE  1 Practical Performance Assessment

“Preparation for Comprehensive Patient Care (PCPC)”: The assessment of performance in PCPC will be based on tutor assessment and student self-monitoring of procedural skills during clinic and simulation clinic, tutorial and online training participation, periodontal workshop performance and relevant self-monitoring, formative quiz submissions and a written PCPC test.  Students will be required to perform to pre-set levels of competency prior to being allowed to commence patient care.  Students must reach a satisfactory level of achievement in PCPC activities. If after a period of PCPC a student’s performance is not deemed to be satisfactory to commence patient care, a meeting will be held to discuss performance with the year coordination team.

 

Simulation Clinic Performance: Performance in simulation clinic sessions will be based on tutor assessment, sim clinic quiz completion and Simulation Clinic Learning Plan completion/submission.  Assessment will cover application of knowledge, clinical examination, diagnostic and management skills, practical/technical skills professional behaviour and interpersonal skills as detailed in the Clinical Assessment Criteria and Standards (available via MyUni).

Students need to be familiar with the Clinical Assessment Criteria and Standards as you are responsible for monitoring your own learning. Students need to be proactive with your tutors to seek feedback on your progress.  This includes identifying and discussing areas that require improvement and seeking assistance in identifying strategies that you can implement.Simulation clinic tutors will provide feedback to students during/at end of each session to assist your learning and development.

At the end of semester 1, all students will receive feedback regarding the standard of performance achieved. Students who are identified as performing below the required standard will be required to meet with coordinators to discuss their progress and strategies for improvement.

Assessment in simulation clinic covers specialist disciplines during semester 2; please see the Assessment map for further details.

Clinical Performance: Performance in clinical sessions will be based on tutor assessment, along with completion/submission of the Log of Clinical Procedures, Radiography log and Clinic Learning Plans.  Assessment will cover application of knowledge, clinical examination, diagnostic and management skills, practical/technical skills professional behaviour and interpersonal skills as detailed in the Clinical Assessment Criteria and Standards (available via MyUni).

Students need to be familiar with the Clinical Assessment Criteria and Standards as you are responsible for monitoring your own learning. Students need to be proactive with your tutors to seek feedback on progress.  This includes identifying and discussing areas that require improvement and seeking assistance in identifying strategies that you can implement.Clinic tutors will provide feedback to students during/at end of each session to assist your learning and development.

You should discuss your overall performance with your tutors throughout the year.  If you have any concerns, you should make arrangements to meet with the Year Coordinator as soon as possible.

During the year if a student is deemed to be placing patient safety at risk/not clinically competent, a meeting will be held to discuss performance and to discuss an improvement plan with the co-ordinators/discipline coordinator(s).

At the end of semester 1, all students will receive feedback regarding the standard of performance achieved. Students who are identified as performing below the required standard will be required to meet with coordinators to discuss their progress and strategies for improvement. Mid-way through semester 2, coordinators will collect progress information from all tutors regarding all students in the BDS3 year. Students who were not performing at a satisfactory standard in semester 1 will again be required to meet with coordinators to discuss their further progress. Additionally, students who achieved a satisfactory standard in semester 1 but have been identified as progressing at a lower standard at the time of the semester 2 progress reports will be asked to meet with coordinators.Students will need to identify and implement strategies for improvement supplemented by feedback from tutor/coordinator.

At the end of semester 2, tutors will submit a final written summative assessment for clinical performance, along with a provisional final grade for practical performance.

Final practical performance in DSP III is based on a criterion-based grading system (Well Above Expectations; Above Expectations; Met Expectations; Not Yet Met Expectations and Not Met Expectations). These grades are subsequently converted to a score that contributes to the 40% of the overall practical component for the year. 

The final grade in the practical component of Dental Science and Practice III is not just the sum of individual assessments in your self-monitoring booklet.  These assessments provide feedback to help you with your learning.  Your final assessment will be based on an overall review of your knowledge, clinical examination, diagnostic and management skills, practical/technical skills, professional behaviour and interpersonal skills in a clinic/sim clinic context across the whole academic year  and taking into account  overall professional behaviour including attendance and monitoring your own performance.

Replacement/Additional Assessment in the Clinical Component of DSP III is not offered.

 

HURDLE  2 

Integrated Written summative tests will be held at the end of the PCPC block, Semester 1 and Semester 2. Various test question formats will be used (single-best answer, extended matching questions, short answer and scenario-based questions). Blueprinting and standard setting procedures will apply.

HURDLE 3

Online Clinic Case Assignments (1 formative and 1 summative during first semester, 1 summative during second semester). These present students with a clinically-relevant patient case with which to integrate current learning.

ILA case report details to be provided during ILA sessions.This will comprise a report on a clinical patient that has been managed throughout the year in your clinic sessions, inclusive of relevant images.

Oral Health Promotion assignment presents students an opportunity to review Oral Health Promotion interventions and outcomes. 

HURDLE  4

This hurdle comprises performance in (and completion of) other assessment tasks (eg., ILA attendance, participation and submissions, radiography practical session attendance and participation) that have a final outcome of Non-graded Pass.

Students must achieve a satisfactory grade overall in the Written component (both Hurdles 2 and 3, combined across semester 1 and 2) to pass DSPIII. These written summative assessment tasks contribute 60% to the overall grade in DSPIII.

To pass DSP III (DENT3005AHO/BHO) and the Third  Annual Examination (DENT3000HO) students must obtain:

• a satisfactory result in each of the FOUR (4) Hurdles of the summative assessment in semesters 1 and 2 and
• an overall standard of at least 55% in DSPIII by the end of the regular academic year (DENT3005AHO/BHO)
• a satisfactory performance in the cumulative PIA, DOPS (Direct Observation of Procedural Skills) and OSCEs (Objective Structured Clinical Examinations) as part of DENT3000HO

The overall grade for the year will be determined by performance in the written integrated/oral examinations (60%) and by performance in the clinic (40%).  A pass grade in DSPIII will only be awarded to students who achieve a satisfactory standard in all summative components.

 

Details on submission processes/requirements will be provided in the documentation for any work that is to be submitted. 

The School follows the 最新糖心Vlog’s SELT policy regarding the use of SELTs to evaluate its programmes, courses and teachers. The results are reviewed with by Year and Course Coordinators and actions taken as appropriate. A summary of changes that have been made are circulated to staff and students after the review process.

The year co-ordinators will meet with students on a regular basis to discuss the delivery of the course, content, clinical and other matters.

Student representative across the BDS program also meet periodically with the Head of School.
