STUDENT MANUAL
student are encourage to ask questions. They will then
be given an opportunity to practice the skills in the
clinical setting.
Field trips –
These are visits organized by the teacher to
communities, youth centres or schools, where students
can observe different situations relevant to their
training. Guidelines for the field experience will be
provided and students will be given projects to write
up and present individually or as a group in class.
Clinical practice –
In order for students to learn clinical skills, they
will be assigned to a clinic where relevant skills are
practiced. They will be supervised by both their
teachers and the clinic staff. Objectives for clinical
practice and the skills to be learned will be prepared by
the teacher.
Assignments –
In each module there are opportunities for
students to undertake assignments, either individually
or in groups, so that they may practise using their
knowledge and skills, and to make sure they
understand the work. Feedback is an essential part of
every assignment.
Evaluation
In order to evaluate what students have learnt,
there is a pre-test exercise at the beginning of each
module, and a post-test exercise at the end. However,
evaluation would be a continuous process, and the
teacher would organize time for questions and
answers, for quizzes and peer assessment, at regular
intervals, to check the understanding of students.
