Intended Learning Outcomes
Teaching methods include:
Teaching will use a blended learning approach delivered through a combination of synchronous and asynchronous activities. Students will be expected to engage with all learning.
Summative assessment
1. Written assignment (100% of unit total)
Students will be required to submit a written assignment of 1500 - 2000 words on a PPD topic as assigned.
Formative assessment
Students are supported in their learning by a variety of directed formative assessments with which they must engage within this unit. Overall performance will be reviewed and discussed at the School Progress committee at regular meetings x 1 per term.
1. Continuous Clinical Assessment through CAFS e-portfolio
Assessment of professionalism and student reflection for each patient seen, graded with feedback from staff and patients.
2. Clinical Communication Scenarios
Students must demonstrate a satisfactory performance in communication and professionalism in a number of simulated clinical scenarios.
3. Personal Development Planning (PDP)
Students must demonstrate satisfactory engagement with the PDP process through the compilation of a Personal Development Portfolio and meetings with Personal Tutors.
Marks obtained in formative assessments above do not contribute to the overall unit mark but failure to complete by the stated end of term deadlines will be raised at the Progress Committee, and may be a barrier to progression.
