Learning & Teaching Activities
Learning & Teaching Modes
Teaching and learning activities provided in this course are multi-modal. Staff acknowledge that our student body is has a diverse array of learning styles and hence try to facilitate a learning environment that supports a range of approaches.
Activities are designed to promote students to:
- enable students to understand major health problems (with particular reference to dental health) in Australian society, and the associated social and environmental factors.- provide an opportunity for students to apply the principles ,philosophies and role of health promotion to the community with particular emphasis the role of the oral health practitioner, and- assist students to continue to develop their research skills in a way that will lead to increased confidence and student autonomy (see the Research Skill Development Framework, page 16 of your yearbook).Workload
The information below is provided as a guide to assist students in engaging appropriately with the course requirements.
Students will spend approximately 2-3 hours per week working face to face in class meetings for the first 4 weeks of the course. The next 6 weeks of the program see the students working with a mentor semi-independently on their Small Group Discovery Experience project.
It is anticipated that students will spend 2-3 hours per week during these times in preparation and assessment.Learning Activities Summary

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.

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’s disciplinary procedures.
The University of Adelaide is committed to regular reviews of the courses and programs it offers to students. The University of Adelaide therefore reserves the right to discontinue or vary programs and courses without notice. Please read the important information contained in the disclaimer.
