Curriculum in general. The curriculum of the Malmö dental school is based on four concepts – oral health - holistic view - teamwork - self directed learning These concepts result in the following program- characteristics: In each of the ten semesters a course is designed integrating all the necessary disciplines: basic sciences, clinical sciences, behavioural sciences and medicine. The students study theory on the basis of problems, one per week, in study groups, supported by facilitators (staff-members trained to mentor students). The problems are designed in such a way, that the students are touching upon all of the relevant issues. Planning is carried out by experts which are representative of all of the disciplines involved. Students are guided in studying and acquiring knowledge by stated objectives, guidance by the facilitators and seminars where experts answer questions. The assessment is strongly related to both the theme of the course and the learning philosophy underlying the curriculum. - The objectives of the curriculum are clear, as is the implementation of the learning/teaching philosophy. - essential for the curriculum is the placement of all relevant subjects in the context of oral health problems at the appropriate level: clinical science, basic sciences, medicine - evaluations take place, which already has led to modification of the program. - All courses are based on co-operation of experts from relevant disciplines, the course 'the Oral Ecosystem' is an outstanding example of this approach. The approach to the curriculum in the first semester causes anxiety among some students but they adjust rapidly to this. Initially it is not easy for an outsider to get an insight into the subjects and the exposure of the students. The objectives stated per course are too broadly defined to provide such an insight. From the competency-questionnaire given to students it appears that prosthodontics and minor surgery are only experienced by students to a limited degree. However, we have been informed that some of these items in the questionnaire (especially items #12 and #15) do not reflect realistic treatment modules in Swedish prosthetic care. The teaching- and learning process relies heavily upon teachers, facilitators and students through self-assessments and assessments of the staff. The overall programme is innovative and the experience gained in the initial years produced a number of modifications resulting in a comprehensive programme for current students. Staff conti...
