Course history

Introduction

Language of instruction: Norwegian

The course builds on knowledge, skills and general competence acquired from the course MABU4100. The purpose of the course is to enable the students to apply and critically assess various knowledge as the basis for physiotherapy adapted to children and adolescents. The course provides a broad theoretical foundation as a basis for measures in which research-based, experience-based and user knowledge are integrated in the design of interventions. Family-centred services and interprofessional work in health-promoting and preventive work, treatment and habilitation are key topics in the course.

Recommended preliminary courses

The midway and final assessments are made by the practical training supervisor in cooperation with the contact lecturer. The final decision on whether to award a pass or fail grade is made by the university.

Required preliminary courses

Language of instruction: Norwegian

The practical training in a dental technology enterprise should primarily contribute to the students developing their skills in relation to production procedures and theoretical principles in a real-life working situation. Dialogue about different solutions and forms of production are key. The student will participate as much as possible in the professional community and the day-to-day production of tooth replacements.

Clinical practical training focuses on the complexity of clinical dental treatment, the diversity of patients and on safeguarding their needs and right. Emphasis is placed on professional communication and a responsible cooperation between dental health professionals.

Breakdown of credits: Theory 5 credits and skills training 25 credits.

Learning outcomes

Passed first year and passed TAB2000, TAB2100, TAB2300/TAB2400 from the second year. TAB1050 is exempt from the progression requirement.

Teaching and learning methods

After completing the course, the student should have the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

The student

  • can, based on knowledge about the oral cavity, material science and evidence-based practice choose suitable materials, production methods/technology and design for relevant work assignments in the chosen specialisation, fixed prosthetics (A)
  • can explain relevant design and laboratory technology adaptations to achieve good function and acceptable aesthetics in a given case
  • can describe the different roles and responsibilities of the dental healthcare professions and the importance of interdisciplinary cooperation in the best interest of the patient in line with relevant legislation and professional ethical guidelines
  • is familiar with principles for supervision and professional healthcare communication and active listening, as well as the importance of congruity in verbal communication
  • is familiar with how variations in health competence can affect different patient groups’ ability to perform oral self-care

Skills

The student can

  • use specialist terminology in communication, verbally, in writing and digitally when choosing solutions and construction design
  • document and critically analyse their own experiences and challenges related to structural design and handling of materials in clinical cases
  • produce sub-structures for single crowns and small bridges with good fit and functionality using conventional and digital techniques
  • make all-ceramic crowns, facets, inlays and small bridges using conventional and digital techniques, either fully anatomical, with cut-back and/or layering technique with good fit, function and aesthetic results
  • fire and layer porcelain on sub-structures in a manner that maintains good functionality, morphology and provides the desired optical properties in a given case

General competence

The student can

  • plan their own workday with a suitable division of work processes in a production context
  • identify the professional field and respect professional points of view and norms relating to good practice, applicable legislation and professional ethics issues
  • make use of supervision and constructive feedback, and show a willingness and ability to participate in goal-oriented cooperation and professional communication with dental health personnel in a professional context
  • communicate with patients in connection with prosthetic treatments

Course requirements

Godkjent av studieutvalget ved fakultet LUI 18. desember 2014 og etablert av fakultetsstyret 22. januar 2015. Revidert versjon godkjent av studieutvalget ved fakultet LUI 5. mars 2015. Redaksjonell endring foretatt 14. januar 2016 og 6. juli 2017. Gjeldende fra vårsemesteret 2018.

Emnet Tolking i komplekse møter gir en videre praktisk-teoretisk innføring i tolkefaget. Emnet omhandler tolking i møter med flere deltakere og ulike språklige registre. Det er et nett- og samlingsbasert emne, og det tilbys som deltidsstudium over ett semester.

Assessment

The following must have been approved in order for the student to receive a final assessment:

  • a minimum attendance of 80 % in external practical training in an enterprise and clinical observational practice and compulsory supervision
  • individual portfolio in accordance with set criteria that documents self-produced works during the practical training in an enterprise
  • individual subject note relating to the clinical observational practice, up to 2,000 words

Permitted exam materials and equipment

Assessment of practical training: The assessment is based on the learning outcomes for the course and the continuous assessment that students are subject to throughout the practical training period. Students can only be assessed if they meet the minimum attendance requirement of 80% for the practical training.

Resit assessment: If the student fails the external practical training in an enterprise and/or the clinical observational practice, the student must retake the entire practical training period.

Examiners

Retten til å avlegge eksamen forutsetter godkjente arbeidskrav og deltakelse i nærmere definerte faglige aktiviteter.

Arbeidskrav Følgende arbeidskrav må være godkjent før studenten kan avlegge avsluttende eksamen:

  1. Et skriftlig refleksjonsnotat hvor studenten analyserer egne styrker og utfordringer basert på opptak av egen tolkeøvelse (400-800 ord)
  2. En skriftlig fagfellevurdering - en individuell praktisk-teoretisk analyse basert på opptak av en medstudents tolkeøvelse (400-800 ord)
  3. En midtveisevaluering i form av en innspilt muntlig presentasjon av egen utvikling (varighet ca. fem minutter)

Formålet med arbeidskrav en og to er å bli seg bevisst egne og andres utfordringer. Formålet med det tredje arbeidskravet er å vise til på hvilken måte studenten eventuelt har videreutviklet sine ferdigheter i tolking i komplekse møter.

Arbeidskrav skal være levert innen fastsatt(e) frist(er). Gyldig fravær dokumentert med for eksempel sykemelding gir ikke fritak for å innfri arbeidskrav. Studenter som på grunn av sykdom eller annen dokumentert gyldig årsak ikke leverer arbeidskrav innen fristen, kan få forlenget frist. Ny frist for å innfri arbeidskrav avtales i hvert enkelt tilfelle med den aktuelle læreren.

Arbeidskrav vurderes til "godkjent" eller "ikke godkjent". Studenter som leverer arbeidskrav innen fristen, men som får vurdering "ikke godkjent", har anledning til maksimum to nye innleveringer. Studenten må da selv avtale ny innlevering av det aktuelle arbeidskravet med faglærer. Studenter som ikke leverer arbeidskrav innen fristen og som ikke har dokumentert gyldig årsak, får ingen nye forsøk.

Faglig aktivitet med krav om deltakelse Obligatorisk deltakelse er viktig for å øve praktisk tolking og for å tilegne seg teoretisk pensum.

Gjennom studiet skal studentene utvikle praktiske ferdigheter og kompetanse knyttet til tolking i ulike situasjoner. Denne type ferdigheter og kompetanse kan ikke tilegnes ved selvstudium, men må opparbeides gjennom reell dialog med medstudenter og lærere og ved tilstedeværelse i undervisningen. Det er derfor krav om tilstedeværelse i følgende faglige aktiviteter:

  • Læringsaktiviteter på nett
  • Samlinger ved HiOA

Manglende deltakelse i faglige aktiviteter nevnt over, medfører at studenten mister retten til å avlegge eksamen. For å få avlegge eksamen kreves det minimum 80 % deltakelse i læringsaktiviteter på nett og minimum 80 % tilstedeværelse på samlinger. Sykdom fritar ikke for deltakelse i læringsaktiviteter på nett og tilstedeværelse på samlinger.
