The learning management system (MyUni) will be used as a digital platform to:

- host online teaching activities, resources including supporting documents, videos and external web-links.

- help students navigate learning pathways through the course.

- communicate course and program related announcements to students.

- promote student discussion and communication via digital discussion boards.

- enable students to access and complete formative and summative quizzes and submit assignments.

Lectures
Key mechanisms, concepts and issues relating to the four domains of medicine (science & scholarship, clinical practice, health & society and professionalism & leadership) will be explained and discussed via a series of online video resources and in-person presentations.

Bench-to-bedside research seminars
Medical research seminars will feature invited world-class research scientists who will speak about their cutting-edge research relevant to the course theme.  These sessions will give opportunity for students to learn more about the process of medical research and how new knowledge is translated into clinical practice.

Practical laboratories
Multi-disciplinary interactive practical classes will provide students with opportunity to explore the anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of the human body.

Scenario-based (SBL) workshops
Scenarios will relate to common and important medical conditions, population and community health issues relevant to the course themes. Scenarios will be introduced (via MyUni) in the first week of each fortnightly block of teaching and then explored in detail by student groups within scenario-based learning sessions in the subsequent week. These sessions are designed to develop skills in hypothesis formulation, testing and clinical reasoning in addition to consolidating and applying knowledge across the various domains of medicine.

Medical Practice workshops
These workshops integrate teaching across clinical practice and professionalism and leadership domains and are designed for students to practice and gain competency in clinical examination techniques and concurrently apply professionalism and leadership skills. This structure models the importance of integrated medical practice in a clinical environment.

Professionalism and Leadership workshops
Facilitator guided workshops will help students to develop academic research and writing skills; and to develop skills to foster self-care, wellbeing and peer support.

Health and Society workshops
Tutor guided group workshops are designed to facilitate learning by providing opportunity for students to work collaboratively to explore themes including the role of epidemiology in population health, prevention and health promotion, assessing risk, the determinants of health and how these affect people’s health in both an indigenous and global context.

The following minimum requirements are necessary for progression from the course:

Science and Scholarship Domain: It is a hurdle requirement for students to achieve atleast a passing grade in the End of Semester test. The grade for the End of Semester Test will be determined by applying an appropriate standard setting method (e.g. Cohen's standard setting).

Health and Society Domain: At least a mark of 50% in the summatively assessed components (Population Health Assignment). Satisfactory performance in Indigenous Health Assignment.

Clinical Practice: Acceptable performance in clinical competencies 3 & 4, completion of competencies in Hand Hygiene Learning Module and Vital Signs Assessment.

Professionalism and Leadership: Active contribution of small group teaching sessions, including attendance (80%); timely submission of assignments; completion of the Mental Health First Aid Module; appropriate academic referencing, and no substantiated record of unprofessional behaviour.

Assessment will be conducted under the GS8 Grade Scheme in recognition of the Integrated, Domain-led nature of the Medical Program curriculum. In addition, the program uses the philosophy of “Assessment for Learning”, where the learner is guided by assessment, and assessment feedback is used to shape and determine the learner’s progress.

The integrated nature of the curriculum, with four Domains: Science and Scholarship; Clinical Practice; Health and Society, and Professionalism and Leadership, means that the successful learner must achieve a minimum standard of performance in each Domain, and deficiencies in an individual Domain cannot be compensated by performance in another.

Weekly Quizzes (Formative): Each week, students will undertake a formative quiz that tests and consolidates the knowledge of that week’s learning. Questions can be drawn from across the Domains, with approximate weight related to the content taught during the week.

Mid Semester Test (Formative): At mid semester, students will undertake a test for formative purposes. Material from across the curriculum will be assessed through multiple-choice and short-answer questions.

End of Semester Test (NGP – Hurdle): At the end of semester, students will undertake a test for summative purposes. Material from across the curriculum will be assessed, through multiple-choice and short-answer questions.

Indigenous Health Assignment (NGP – Hurdle): Students will be required to complete 6 reflections and a final quiz, which are incorporated into the Foundations of Indigenous Health and Society module across Weeks 7 & 8. Satisfactory completion of these tasks are required for progression.

Population Health Assignment: A Population Health Assignment incorporating learnings from the Domain and a presentation.

Hand Hygiene Online Learning Module (NGP – Hurdle): Students are required to undertake the Hand Hygiene Student Health Practitioners Online Module and upload the certificate of completion to the corresponding assignment page.

Clinical Competencies (Formative and NGP – Hurdle): Various clinical competencies will be assessed across the semester. Students will be required to demonstrate competency in a range of basic clinical skills including history taking and physical examination, bedside, laboratory and imaging investigations and appropriate behaviour in the clinical setting

Appropriate Academic Integrity (NGP – Hurdle): Students will be required to reference appropriately across their submitted work. Satisfactory performance is required for progression.

Oral Case Presentation (Formative): Students will develop and practice skills in case presentation.

Mental Health First Aid (NGP – Hurdle): Students will be required to complete (1) an eLearning module online and (2) undertake the in-person Mental Health First Aid program. Satisfactory completion of both parts of this assessment is required for progression.

Professional Values Reflection (NGP - Hurdle): Students will write an individual reflection of 600 words on professionalism. Satisfactory performance will be required for progression.
