Objective
As a starting point for learning, the focus is on situations and problems arising from professional practices, and the learning process aims to find evidence-based solutions for them. Project work including development work and projects of the student’s field of study is employed as the main learning method. Various learning environments supporting learning are used to deepen and develop competence, for example in the learning environments of pharmacotherapy, health promotion and simulation. As for the learning environments of independent study, they offer students the opportunity to practise clinical skills. The teaching methods have been diversified by increasing the possibilities for digital learning. Throughout the learning process, students assume the responsibility for their learning. Their competence in studies is evaluated by an evaluation framework, which consists of competence areas including professional knowledge base, professional skills and actions as well as ethics, cooperation and development. Students become proficient in continuous development of their competence and further studies.
In the early stage of the Degree programme of Oral Hygienist, before working with the patients, the practical training takes place in simulated learning environment in the learning studio. There the student practices clinical oral health care. The simulation environment creates a reproduction of the clinical caring situation of the patient. In that case the motoric skills of the student and the control of the caring environment develops. As the clinical skills have been accumulated, the student practices the clinical oral health care at the Metropolia oral health care teaching clinic. There the students take care of the patients referred by the dentists of Oral Health Care of the City of Helsinki either independently or as a professional team work with the dentistry students of the University of Helsinki.
The internship is 75 ECTS: the training will take place both in the simulation environment and in working life.
