Competency-Based Dental Assistant and Physician Assistant Modules: A Conversion Project. Organization and Utilization Guidelines for Dental Assistant Curriculum Modules

摘要

This booklet describes the organization and utilization of the dental assistant curriculum modules which form one part of the series, 'Competency-Based Dental Assistant and Physician Assistant Modules: A Conversion Project,' which was developed in a large part from Armed Services training materials. The modules in this series are gauged to the student at the postsecondary level. Self-paced to allow the student to progress according to his or her choice and ability, the modules can be used either by the individual alone or in the traditional classroom framework. All the modules contain five components: an introduction/rationale, behaviorally-stated objectives, learning activities, practice exercises, key terms, and tests.
