14. Class Management
This Couse will be
INTENSE and FUN!
• The course calendar has been
developed to maximize the
opportunity for learning and practicing
the skills needed to competently serve
the needs of our patients.
• .
14
15. • It is this course that separates
dental education and dentists
from physicians, pharmacists, and
other paramedical practitioners
15
16. Learning takes
PRACTICE
One cannot expect to learn to play the piano well
by taking nothing but lessons – To be come
competent, one needs to practice, and practice a
lot, between lessons. So it is with dentistry.
One must practice frequently and put in the time
to gain the skills and confidence to be a skilled
dental surgeon. Our hand/eye skills must be
second to none in medicine. Daily we operate on
16
vital tissues to within tolerances of a ½ a
millimeter or less. And, we do it with an
instrument rotating at 25, 000 to 400,000 rpms.
That kind of skill cannot be achieved without
dedication and lots of practice.
17. The “Think System” does
not work for us!
• “The think system
is if you think
about the melody
and you hum the
melody, when
you are
presented with an
instrument, you
will be able to
play the melody”.

demonstrations
*Sim stands for “simulation”
21. Class Rules
Continued
• Assessments begin at 8 a.m. sharp!
o Absenteeism or tardiness may carry penalties effecting the
grade as stated in the Student Handbook or this course
syllabus.
o Students arriving more than 10 minutes late* for an
assessment will not be allowed to take the assessment and
will be scheduled for the remediation. The late student will
participate in the didactic team assessment but will not
receive grade points for the team assessment. The grade
earned for that assessment will be the grade earned upon
completion of the remediation.

25. Dress Code
Continued

• In other words, scrubs are the
uniform-of-the-day for the
DMD5310 course and at all times
while working in the sim lab (clinic) or
wet lab areas during regular 8-5 hours
Monday through Friday.
Clean closed-toe shoes and clean socks which cover the ankles must be
worn with the scrubs. Shoes should be conservative in color and style.
Athletic style shoes are acceptable as long as they are in good repair
and meet the criteria previously stated.
26. Dress Code
Continued
• When working on the simulator (Darwin) standard
precautions will be enforced. That is: scrubs, masks,
gloves, eye protection and hair containment.
• “Hair, including facial hair, must be clean, neat and well
groomed. If it is longer than chin/shoulder length, it must
be secured in a way that it does not interfere with the
dental operating field or touch a patient (Darwin) during
clinical or laboratory procedures. This is necessary for
enforcement of mandatory
infection control
guidelines” and personal
safety
(from Roseman CODM Clinic Manual)
26
27. Course Calendar
• The Course Calendar is published in the
syllabus and on the student portal under
DMD5310 . You should also be able to
access the Google school calendar with a
g-mail account. You need to be aware of
a few situations.
1.The calendar may be changed at any time.
Check your email frequently to see if there
has been a change posted. You will be
advised in class of any changes – hopefully
with adequate notice. It is critical that your
e-mail box is cleaned out regularly so as not
to miss any email notifications. (see student
handbook concerning mail box)
27
28. Course Calendar
oPlease note that CODM
normally conducts classes
from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Monday through Friday.
Any exceptions will be
noted.
28
29. Course Calendar
• Didactic assessment normally
occur on every third Monday
in the a.m.
• Didactic remediation will
normally be on the following
Monday in the a.m.
29
30. Course Calendar
30
• I know that you are asking,
“Why the tight schedule?”
• It has to do with course continuity and the
time needed for presentation of material
and practice.
• This is not a unusual condition for dental
school.
31. 31
Practical Examinations
• Mastery assessment refers to practical
examination to test manual skills and
problem solving
• Practicals are scheduled at the course or
theme director’s discretion
• Practicals are conducted in the sim lab or in
the clinic and scrubs are required
• Remediation of a practical examination is
also scheduled at the discretion of the
course or theme director
32. Quizzes
• Quizzes can be injected into the
schedule at any time. These
quizzes are not graded but used
to assess understanding and
course progress
32
33. Grading
• Student evaluation will be determined by
assessments, team assessments, and practical
assessments, and professionalism tracking
• A 90% assessment score is necessary for “Pass” and
less than 90% will result in a “No Pass”. A “No Pass”
for the course theme or a section of the course
theme will necessitate participation in
Remediation/Reassessment at the appropriate time
as stated in the Student handbook
33
34. Grading
• Practical grading protocols are established by each
course or theme director. A practical remediation
of “No Pass” caries the same consequences as a
didactic “No Pass” and will require summer
Remediation/Reassessment as per university
policies.
34
35. Calculation of Grades
• Daily projects – all daily projects must
be completed to a “pass” level of
competency to qualify to take the
section practical examination. For
some, that will require re-doing the
daily project until “pass” is achieved.
The timely completion of daily projects
is therefore essential and may require
significant after hours work.
35
36. After Hours Policies
• See “After Hours Dress Policies”
• Only students are allowed in the sim lab after hours
and on Saturdays. Friends and family members are
not allowed
• The dispensary is closed afterhours. Any materials
needed must be requested prior to 5 p.m.
• Dr. Janis will be available from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.
