Strand D1.0 Students understand the responsibilities of their roles and perform their tasks safely by using appropriate guidelines (51)

Standard D1.3 Know the process for evaluating compliance with corporate, legal, regulatory, and accreditation standards, ethics, and codes.

Standard Performance Objective: Given tasks in the dental office, student will demonstrate competency in performing their duties properly and safely within prescribed guidelines, referring to appropriate text in manuals as necessary.

Lesson Objective: At the end of the lesson the student will be able to prepare trays for several procedures, including routine dental exam, simple extraction, and treatment of caries with 100% accuracy within 30 minutes.

Equipment/Supplies: Instruments for dental procedures, including items for patient safety such as paper drape, clips, lead shield, rubber dam, and protective eyewear.

Comment: Savage and Walsh (1996, p. 395) cited the emergence of hepatitis B and HIV in the 1980s as the driving force behind new emphasis on cross-infection control in the dental office. As they point out, the U.S. enacted substantial federal legislation with strict guidelines administered by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Ideally the student will be able to accomplish the tasks without referring to any procedural manuals, but often this takes time and experience in a practice. Students should understand that they should not guess if they are unsure, since ramifications for OSHA violations can be serious for the individual and for the practice. It is acceptable to ask the dentist or other experienced colleagues. Students can use print references; knowing how and where to find the correct information quickly is an important skill.

Comment: Savage and Walsh (1996, p. 398) discussed new standards for cross-infection control in Australian dentistry. In training programs, "Students are examinable at any stage during their clinical training in the cross-infection control area." Because of the emphasis on cross-infection control in today's health care environment, this is sound practice for any program anywhere in the world. It keeps students (and their teachers) continually aware of the importance of following safety procedures. Accidents can happen with even the best health care providers if they are not mindful of what they are doing or if they…

(Farah and Ridge, 2009) The successful shift from textbook, memory-based curriculum to a standards-based curriculum is therefore dependent on three things: the development of national standards and goals for curriculum; the development of corresponding assessment tools; and the re-education of teachers towards the objective of altering teachers' attitudes and views of their role in the education system. Rather than simply drilling memorized facts, words or phrases into a student's consciousness-as

"By the 1980s, the field had moved to a functional skills model. As the evidence for this approach mounted, the field refocused on age appropriate skills and knowledge performed in authentic settings and the functional life skills curriculum became best practice. The functional, age-appropriate curricular focus resulted in these students demonstrating skills and knowledge not thought possible earlier" (Quenemoen, 2008). In the 1990s, added significant new practices were acknowledged as
