1.      Utilize accurate dental terminology and nomenclature of teeth.

2.      Describe each primary and permanent tooth according to its location, anatomical features, morphology, and function.

3.      Describe and identify the stages of tooth development and tooth anomalies

4.      Get knowledge and understanding of the formation, function, and composition of masticatory and specialized tissues

5.      Understand the major & minor salivary gland along with the duct openings and intraoral location.

6.      Correctly identify soft tissue landmarks of the oral cavity.

7.      Develop knowledge and understanding of the formation, function, and composition of tissues of the periodontium, enamel, dentin, and pulp.

8.      Develop an understanding of embryological and histological development of the orofacial structures.

COURSE REQUIREMENTS, RULES & REGULATIONS

Following are the expectations from the student attending the course;

50% students’ attendance of online synchronized classes must be considered mandatory.

However, the recorded course along with lecture hand-outs will be available on the DOES Learning Management System (LMS) in a-synchronized form, so that those students who may face some internet connectivity issues during on-line synchronized teaching may not suffer and face the consequences of short of attendance.

Students attending synchronized lectures and taking assessments before closing data shall also be counted in the attendance

100% students’ participation will be considered in different discussion forums, chats, quizzes, class tests, project and assignments before their closing dates as part of internal evaluation.

It also contains how the students will be graded for different components of assessment, assessment methods that will be used during the course, e.g. Essay writing, MCQs, Short questions, etc.

Formative Assessment on In Campus/ LMS must be graded and be assigned 60% weightage of the Summative Assessment, whereas 40% may be assigned to the Final Examination conducted on In Campus/ LMS in the form of BCQs based Theory.

In order to provide flexibility to the students, they may be given options of two attempts to finish graded quizzes.

However, mid-term and class test must be taken as single attempt

Theory based final examination questions (to assess knowledge) will be prepared and peer reviewed by two at least examiners (internal and external)

The break-up is given as follows:

Regarding Grading Policy, it is proposed that student may be considered PASS or FAIL on the basis of 50% cut-off of the total marks scored.
