Integrated curriculum:
An integrated curriculum is all about making connections, whether to real life or across the disciplines, about skills or about knowledge.

An integrated curriculum fuses subject areas, experiences, and real-life knowledge together to make a more fulfilling and tangible

learning environment for students. Integrated teaching means that subjects are presented as a meaningful whole. Students will be

able to have better understanding of basic sciences when they repeatedly learn in relation to clinical examples. Case based

discussions, computer-based assignments, early exposure to clinics, wards, and skills acquisition in skills lab are characteristics of

integrated teaching program.

Introduction to endocrine system
The Endocrine System is composed of glands that secrete chemicals called hormones into the bloodstream for the
control of body functions. ... Substances released by the hypothalamus trigger the production and secretion of
hormones by the pituitary gland. The endocrine system uses chemical messages in the form of hormones- chemical
substances that are secreted by cells into extracellular fluids and regulate metabolic activity. Blood transfers hormones
to target sites. Target cells or target organs Target cells must have specific protein receptor in order to be affected by
the hormones.
Hormones of the endocrine system coordinate and control growth, metabolism, temperature regulation, the
stress response, reproduction, and many other functions.

Teaching and learning strategies:

The following teaching / learning methods are used to promote better understanding:

Interactive Lectures

Hospital / Clinic visits

Small Group Discussion

Skills session

Self-Directed Study

Interactive lectures:

An interactive lecture is an easy way for instructors to intellectually engage and involve students as active participants in a lecture-

based class of any size. Interactive lectures are classes in which the instructor breaks the lecture at least once per class to have students

participate in an activity that lets them work directly with the material.

The instructor might begin the interactive segment with an engagement trigger that captures and maintains student attention.
Then the instructor incorporates an activity that allows students to apply what they have learned or give them a context for up-

coming lecture material.

As the instructor feels more comfortable using interactive techniques he or she might begin to call upon a blend of various inte r-

active techniques all in one class period.

Hospital / Clinic visits:

In small groups, students observe patients with signs and symptoms in hospital or clinical settings. This helps students to relate

knowledge of basic and clinical sciences of the relevant module.

Small group discussion (SGD):

The shy and less articulate are more able to contribute. Students learn from each other. Everyone gets more practice at express-

ing their ideas. A two way discussion is almost always more creative than individual thoughts. Social skills are practiced in a 'safe' envi-

ronment e.g. tolerance, cooperation. This format helps students to clarify concepts acquire skills or attitudes. Students exchange opin-

ions and apply knowledge gained from lectures, tutorials and self-study. The facilitator role is to ask probing questions, summarize, or

rephrase to help clarify concepts.


Skills/Practical session:

Skills relevant to respective module are observed and practiced where applicable in skills laboratory or Laboratories of various

departments.

Self-Directed learning (SDL):

Self-directed learning, which involves studying without direct supervision in a classroom/Library, is a valuable way to learn and

is quickly growing in popularity among parents and students. Students’ assume responsibilities of their own learning through individual

study, sharing and discussing with peers, seeking information from Learning Resource Centre, teachers and resource persons within

and outside the college. Students can utilize the time within the college scheduled hours of self-study.
Time tables:
The timetables for the module will be shared via Edmodo and the notice boards in advance.

Assessment tools:
Theoretical knowledge is tested by a written examination system constituted by multiple choice questions (MCQs). The assess-

ment of practical knowledge involves oral, spot, or objective structured practical examinations (OSPE).

Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs):

Multiple choice questions (MCQs) are a form of assessment for which students are asked to select the best choice from a list of

answers.

MCQ consists of a stem and a set of options. The stem is usually the first part of the assessment that presents the question as a

problem to be solved; the question can be an incomplete statement which requires to be completed and can include a graph, a

picture or any other relevant information. The options are the possible answers that the student can choose from, with the cor-

rect answer called the key and the incorrect answers called distractors.

Correct answer carries one mark, and incorrect ‘zero mark’. There is NO negative marking.

Students mark their responses on specified computer-based sheet designed for the college.

The block exam will comprise of 120 MCQs and will be compiled according to the shared blueprint.
Short Essay Questions (SEQ)

Short answer questions generally ask for brief, text-based responses and may also be referred to as fill-in-the-blank;
or completion questions.

Variations of the short answer question may request a list of terms or rules in which the order is not important, or may requ ire a nu-
merical or formula response.

Here is some general information about short answer questions:

Does not measure interpretation.


Can be used to check for preciseness such as correct spelling (good when using computer grading), proper or specific names of
things, especially factual knowledge, and proper creation of formulas.
Requires specific, definite, exact information.
Can be used to discriminate whether errors can be detected in a diagram, for example.

Advantages of Short Answer Questions

Easy to write.
Reduces possibility of guessing.
Can have a lengthy stem such as a paragraph. (Caution: You generally should not expect an exact answer character-by-
character.)
May be easy to score if the required answer is short.
Disadvantages of Short Answer Questions

It can take time to create items with complex formulas.


Can be turned into a measure of memorization ability.
Grading can be subjective.
Correct responses may appear incorrect due to minor errors such as misspellings, order of words, etc.
Difficult to machine score. Much work is being conducted in this area, but it is still in early stages of development.

Objective Structured Practical Examination (OSPE)

The content may assess application of knowledge, or practical skills.

Student will complete task in define time at one given station.

All the students are assessed on the same content by the same examiner in the same allocated time.

A structured examination will have observed, unobserved, interactive and rest stations.

Observed and interactive stations will be assessed by internal or external examiners.

Unobserved will be static stations in which students will have to answer the questions related to the given pictures, models or

specimens the provided response sheet.

Rest station is a station where there is no task given, and in this time student can organize his/her thoughts.

The Block OSPE will be comprise of 18 examined station and 7 rest stations. The stations will be assigned according to the sh red

blueprint.
Internal Evaluation:

Internal evaluation is a process of quality review undertaken within an institution for its own ends. 10% marks of internal evaluation

will be added to final marks. This 10% will be based on

Distribution of 12 Marks for block F paper


Average of Percentage in Block exam

and Pre-Professional exam.

Distribution of 12 Marks for Block F OSCE/OSPE
