MEDIC ST 6020AHO - Psychiatry Selective VI Part 1

Teaching Hospitals - Semester 1 - 2017

A Selective is a Specialist/Community or Ambulatory Placement. Each Selective is 4 weeks in duration. Students must do a Selective in Medicine, Primary Care, Psychiatry and Surgery. Students must take at least one rural-based Selective (with the exemption of International students who are not required to do a rural placement). Note 1: Students that have already fulfilled their 4 weeks rural total (Commonwealth requirement before graduation) may wish to apply for a rural Selective exemption. Selective selection is from a pre-determined list of available Selectives. Individual "once-off/self-created" Selectives may be negotiated (interstate/overseas) for student's Medicine, Surgery, Primary Care OR Psychiatry Selective. Only ONE self-created Selective may be created in Year 6. The self-created Selective must be approved by the relevant Discipline before it can be accepted. Note 2: Some students may be required to complete a directed elective in place of their Medicine or Surgery Selective, based on decisions made at the Year 5 Board of Examiners.

Small Group Discovery Experience

The predominant learning method for the MBBS Program is small group discovery learning.
Assessment
The 最新糖心Vlog's policy on Assessment for Coursework Programs is based on the following four principles:
1. Assessment must encourage and reinforce learning.
2. Assessment must enable robust and fair judgements about student performance.
3. Assessment practices must be fair and equitable to students and give them the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned.
4. Assessment must maintain academic standards.
Assessment Summary

Case Presentations
Students are required to present four cases to their supervisor or their nominated delegate (e.g.
registrar). The marking sheet is available in the student handbook.

Powerpoint Presentation and Student Seminar Presentation
All students are required to prepare a 10 minute powerpoint presentation on a mental health topic of their choice. There will be a seminar at the end of each rotation where all students will present their work. The presentation must be relevant to mental health, but the format and content is up to the student. They may present a case with a discussion of some interesting aspect of the case, talk about something that has been in the media, present an article or some published research, describe the information available on the internet about a particular topic, or (briefly) review atopic. They may present relevant material from psychology, sociology and related disciplines if they wish. Marking criteria for assessment is available in the student handbook.

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
The MBBS Program website has details on Student well-being resources which can be accessed.

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.
