Course Information
Description
The overall goal of the foundations for the advanced dental practitioner course is for dental residents to gain the basic fundamentals necessary for the future practice of dentistry including understanding ethics/professionalism, evidence-based dentistry, behavioral science, practice management including risk management and malpractice, and teaching methodology and to demonstrate their applicability to dental practice. The course will be structured to actively engage students using strategies that foster integrated approaches to learning. As such, the format will consist of lectures, self-directed learning and group-based assignments, problem solving, self-reflection exercises, and integrated case presentations. Multiple integrated self-assessments will be used throughout the course, including written self-assessment and reflection, and focus groups. Students will need to complete these assessments in a timely manner. Attendance will be taken.
