Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
Class meetings/Case based activity
2 -3 hours of class meetings, case base activities and/or resource sessions per week.
These sessions will be used for introducing and exploring topics, but may also be used for interactive learning, student presentations, discussions and assessments. The times of the sessions and room allocations will vary depending on the structure of the session. Students will be advised of these as necessary throughout the course of the year.
Research Skill Development Framework
The RSD framework has been instrumental in helping to align the development of your academic skills with your clinical competencies to promote students to become evidence based, holistic practitioners. Dental & Health Science IIOH will again be using the RSD framework to inform curriculum design, plan student activities, provide a vehicle for evaluation and drive student assessment. We are looking for students to have skills developed at level 3 by the completion of this course.
One of the key advantages of using the RSD framework is that it challenges you to continue todevelop your own ‘curiosity’ as a health practitioner. It maps out the skills required (or the ‘6 sides of clinical problem solving’ if you like) to be able to provide the level of patient care that the public demands in Australia today. Whether you are find yourself in health care administration, management, providing clinical services or researching and analytics, the RSD paves the way for you to identify certain skills required for you to reach your personal goals. If you weren’t familiar with it enough in first year, you will have a good opportunity to review it again in BOH 2.Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
On average students should expect 2-3 hours per week of face to face contact time and approximately 2-3 hours per week in preparation and assessment.Learning Activities Summary
Details will be made available on MyUni. -
Assessment
The University'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.

ASSESSMENT RULES
You will be required to complete individual and group based assessments. Individual assessments are your own work and reflect the University Policy on Academic Integrity (/policies/230). Please review this policy carefully. There will be no exceptions to how cases of plagiarism if detected are to be handled.
Individual assessment will include a range of assessments on three different topics with clinical application.
Each written assessment task is to be submitted electronically via Turnitin (unless authorised otherwise by you coordinator).
This course uses Grade Scheme 8 (shown below). To obtain a pass grade over all in Dental & Health Science IIOH you must obtain an average mark of 50% or more across all assessment. Please note, that some courses may set an assessment achievement 'standard' above that of the reported minimum pass mark under Grade Scheme 8. Where this occurs, there will be explicit reference in both the Course Outline and Year 2 BOH Yearbook.Grade Grade reflects following criteria for
allocation of grade:Reported outcome Fail No Submission No work submitted for assessment FNS Fail A mark between 1-49 F Pass A mark between 50-64 P Credit A mark between 65-74 C Distinction A mark between 75-84 D High Distinction A mark between 85-100 HD Non-Graded Pass Satisfactory performance NGP Pass Non-Graded^ Satisfactory performance PNG Result Pending An interim result RP Continuing Continuing CN No Formal Examination No Formal Examination NFE
Generic Grade Descriptors
The descriptors are to be interpreted within the context of the year-level of the course and within the scope of the assessment task. (Assessment tasks include examinations, essays, assignments, etc.)

The Pass Non Graded (PNG) grade is a temporary grade introduced as part of the University’s efforts to support students during a period of significant disruption caused by the COVID-19’.
Student Engagement and 'Active Participation'
Engagement and participation in group, case or problem based learning activities (including tutorials) are also an asseable requirement.
FEEDBACKYou will receive feedback from a variety of sources. Onging feedback of your performance during your assessment tasks is for your benefit and allows you to validate how you are progressing in DHSIIOH Part 1. It also provides staff with opportunities to monitor your performance, both theoretical and practical. It is your responsibility to incorporate this feedback into your learning.

Student Feedback
The University 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 University 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.

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.
