Learning & Teaching Modes:

Hands-on clinical sessions, seminars/tutorials, self-directed learning, prescribed reading, literature reviews, case reports and case presentations, log book record, ward rounds, department/discipline case audits and case reviews, research – regular interaction with research supervisors.


Clinical Experience: The clinical component provides experience within the discipline of Paediatric Dentistry. Clinical sessions occur at the Department of Paediatric Dentistry, Women's and Children's Hospital. Sessions consist of Specialist Consultation Clinics, Specialist Recall Clinics, Outpatients Treatment Clinics, Inpatient Theatre Sessions, Ward rounds, On call and after hours clinical expereinces and other clinically related activities which form part training programme. Postgraduate students are appointed as Specialist registrars in Paediatric Dentistry through the Division of Paediatric Surgery, Women's and Children's Hospital. These appointments are in general 0.55fte and paid clinical appointments.


Coursework: Through reading, tutorials, didactic seminars, interdisciplinary clinics, medical seminars and case discussions students will gain knowledge and understanding in the areas of patient examination, assessment, diagnosis, treatment planning and overall management of patients in paediatric dentistry.


Students will also participate in a range of interdisciplinary activities with students from other specialist areas at the Women's and Children's Hospital.

The workload model is based on 20 teaching weeks and has an approximately work load of 37.5 hours per week. This is a guide only and will vary depending on topics and the students understanding

Clinical Component – 5-6 clinical sessions per week

Clinical Seminar – Diagnosis and treatment planning (5-6 per week )

Departmental Seminar – Departmental journal and case reviews / presentations (13 sessions per semester)

Contemporary Didactic Seminars (12 per semester) (topics included below. These run for the full three years and are also included in the Clinical Components, the Clinical Seminars and Departmental Seminars)

The seminar topics below are broad topics only and each is broken down into specific components.
These broad topics recur throughout the entire programme, but in each semester they are developed into sub topics.
Seminar – Basic Sciences
Seminar – Research methodology and Biostatistics
Seminar – Health Education, Promotion and Epidemiology
Seminar – Evidenced based Diagnosis and Treatment planning
Seminar – Behaviour Science/Patient management
Seminar – Preventive Dentistry
Seminar – Restorative Dentistry
Seminar – Orthodontics
Seminar – Craniofacial and Cleft Lip and Palate conditions
Seminar – Dental Traumatology
Seminar – Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Seminar – Children with Special Needs and Medically compromised Children
Seminar – Dental Anomalies and Genetics
Seminar – General Paediatric Medicine and Surgery
Seminar – Specialist Paediatric Practice
Seminar – Dental Practice in 最新糖心Vlog

Each semester students receive a detailed didactic / seminar roster of all the topics prior to the start of the new calendar year of teaching which is highly detailed and this gives them specific reference to what will be examined. The management and execution of significant research project leading to dissertation.

ASSESSMENT OF THE STRUCTURED PROGRAM
The assessment of this component of the programme is composed of the following:

Formative Review:
The emphasis of this program is self-motivated learning and evaluation. However, regular formative review is also held with senior teaching and clinical staff.
Postgraduate students are assessed continuously throughout their training.
Assessment reviews clinical case mix, amount of clinical experience and standard of patient care. Deficient areas are discussed with clinical supervisors and remedied together with the postgraduate student. In addition, there are regular short 30 minute test papers and/or viva voce-style assessments aimed at consolidating the clinical topics covered previously.

In all years, students are assessed on a continuing basis in the conduct of their clinical activities, patient management, treatment planning, case report presentation, presentations of patient seen in the clinics and the log book.
Clinical assessment will include pre-operative, peri-operative and post-operative management in lines with the specialist discipline and established guidelines on the overall management of paediatric dentistry patients.


Summative Assessment:
Students will receive continuous assessment of their clinical work, clinical case presentations and log book.
These form the overall clinical assessment and led to the clinical barrier written examinations and viva voce examinations at the end of 1st semester.


Achievement Case Reports:
Twelve “achievement” case presentations are required at the end of the 3rd year.
These “achievement” cases are cases selected by the student to highlight their achievements during the program and the range of cases managed. The principle of the “achievement” cases is to ensure a broad range of clinical cases is obtained and treatment is provided and supported by current research and literature.
During each semester, students will be expected to prepare and present their clinical achievement cases.
There is an expectation that students present five to six clinical cases each semester, the most comprehensive of these will be included in the “twelve achievement cases” submitted for their final assessment in third year.
These case reports will be assessed based on the presentation style, pre-operative, peri-operative and post-operative management. In addition, appropriate literature to support their respective management of each case.


Portfolio/Logbook Requirements:
Students will complete a comprehensive logbook of patients in accordance with the Guidelines for Accreditation and Training in Paediatric Dentistry, 2010. The patient logbook is computerised and satisfies the requirements of the Dental Board of 最新糖心Vlog and other registering authorities overseas such as the Royal Australasian College of Dental Surgeons. The logbook will serve as a reference of the relative clinical case mix of patients seen; treatments performed and will aid continual assessment of each postgraduate. The registrar logbooks will be audited at the end of each semester. This process will aid in the clinical experience all postgraduate students receive and to expose the postgraduate students to a wide variety of cases. The logbook will also form part of the clinical assessment for each semester and will form part of their overall assessment during their final examination in October of the third year.


Assignments / Presentations:
In each semester there are a series of traditional didactic teaching seminars, as well as fortnightly departmental / discipline meetings. Students will be required to present comprehensive reviews of selected topics as directed on their individual didactic roster, and departmental / discipline meetings.
Students will be assessed on their ability to review the literature and prepare an appropriately written, referenced literature review related to the specific topic. In addition, students are expected to present their review in the form of a power point presentation. Both the literature review and the power point presentation will be assessed. A fail in a specific component of the review will result in the need for the student to repeat this until the appropriate standard is achieved. At the conclusion of the review, a viva voce session, or short written assessment may be held to ensure that the topic is fully understood by all students involved. The end of semester examination will assess the specific topics from that semester. In following semesters, examinations will include all relevant information covered by the student to provide a continuous assessment of knowledge related to paediatric dentistry.


Examinations:
Comprehensive internal written and oral examinations are held at the completion of each semester (exceptions to this will be at the direction of the programme director). In each semester there is a three hour written examination, one hour oral examination and one hour presentation of their log book and achievement case reports. These examinations will serve as a barrier examination and failure to pass this will require a supplementary examination, repeating of that semester or year, or withdrawal of the candidate from the programme. During the final year in October of the 3rd year, a comprehensive external examination will be conducted. Students must complete the examination satisfactorily before proceeding to the next semester. All second semester examinations and the final examination will be conducted jointly between an external examiner and programme director.


Summary: In order to fulfil the requirements for this course, the student will need to have satisfactorily completed all components of the program.
