Transcript of The 2009 Learning Portfolio and Assessment Framework for DFT.
AimsAims
• Familiarise trainers and Foundation Dentists with the new COPDEND Learning Portfolio & Assessment Framework
• Describe the educational principles and responsibilities
Structure of DFT….Structure of DFT….
• DFT 1- Majority of trainees this will equate to 1 year VT in
GDS- Minority of Foundation Dentists (FDs) will have a
HDS / SDS post in DF1
• DF2– Majority of FDs will have 6/12 month posts in HDS /
SDS– Other models may include further experience in
primary care
Portfolio DevelopmentPortfolio Development
• Recognising the advantages of a national core portfolio and assessment framework
• Robust, based on evidence and defendable
• In consultation with stakeholders from across the UK.
Portfolio DevelopmentPortfolio Development
• Literature review of learning portfolios
• Literature review of assessment
• Consultation with key members from all deaneries (deans, advisers, trainers, FDs, Educational supervisors, GDS, HDS, SDS)
• Consultation with GDC revalidation committee
Portfolio DevelopmentPortfolio Development
• Recommendations based on the evidence
• Quality
Validity / Reliability / Educational impact / Feasibility / Cost
• A core portfolio that is educationally robust, defendable, flexible and user friendly
Portfolio Portfolio RecommendationsRecommendations• 16 recommendations – all approved
– “Avoid duplication, & systematically use the outcomes of monitoring, reflection and assessment exercises to plan the next stages of training in a manner that is focused on the individual needs of the trainee”
– “be mapped to the curriculum at the major competency level, to ensure content validity & educational impact…. Beyond this level the structure should be open, flexible & non-prescriptive”
Assessment Assessment RecommendationsRecommendations• 15 recommendations – all approved
– “the amount of assessment should represent a balance between feasibility and that required to ensure appropriate educational impact and validity / reliability”
– “to ensure a positive educational impact & added value for trainees, assessment should be carried out at regular intervals throughout the training”
Assessment Assessment RecommendationsRecommendations• 15 recommendations – all approved
– “there is good evidence to support the educational impact of WBA tools via the provision of immediate & structured feedback. As such the use of 1 hour / month of existing tutorial time for WBA would ensure no additional burden on trainer time & would add value to the training”
– “there is an appetite to amalgamate DOPS & MiniCEX into a single, appropriate tool for Dentistry… ”
MonitoringMonitoring • Personal Development Plan
• Clinical Experience Log
• Assessment log
• Education / CPD Log
AssessmentAssessment ReflectionReflection• Early Stage Peer Review Exercises
• D-EP, D-CbD, MSF, PAQ
• Weekly / Monthly reflection
(progress / SEA / education)
DFTLearningPortfolio
• Quality Assurance of the training:
– Of experience (Clinical Log)– Of content validity of assessment– Of education & training provided to support
identified learning needs (PDP)– Of CPD & Tutorials
• Adviser / educational supervisor signs off every 3 months
• Single reflection form for both cases (SEA) and against progress towards training outcomes.
• Weekly (1-8 weeks) then monthly thereafter.
• Additional assessment of trainees ‘insight’ in D-EPs & D-CbD
• Learning needs put in PDP log for ‘action’
• Early Stage Peer Review (weeks 1-4 DF1)– “Safe beginner”
• Monthly D-CbD and D-EP.
• 1 x PAQ (GDS) and 1 x MSF (HDS / SDS)
• Learning needs put in PDP log for ‘action’
• This is a “core” learning portfolio
• Detailed log of clinical activity
• May also include…– Audit project?– Case presentation?– Key Skills?
Clinical Experience Log(Worked Example in User Guide appendix)
- Includes initial self assessment & experience for trainers easy reference
- First 5 procedures at request of stakeholders
- List of procedures re-ordered to map to curriculum

Assessment Log(Worked example in User Guide appendix)
- To monitor the relative focus of cases assessed
- Easy access for trainers and advisers to see ‘gaps’
- Signed off by adviser / educational supervisor every 3 months

Personal Development Plan(Worked Example in User Guide appendix)
- Audit trail to ensure all identified learning needs are addressed
- help trainers plan training & education
- Brings together reflection, feedback from assessment and tutorials

CPD / Education Log
- Simple log, in the same basic format as GDC forms

SECTION 3Reflection
SECTION 3Reflection
Reflections- Single, flexible format to capture all reflections
- Progress, significant events, interesting / difficult cases, learning needs etc
- Space for trainer / adviser comments
- learning needs identified through reflection transferred to PDP

Assessments- Early Stage Peer Review (DF1 weeks 1-4)
- A”DEP”T (D-EP assessments)
- Dental Case-based Discussion (D-CbD)
In GDS posts:
- Patient Assessment Questionnaire (PAQ) x 1
In HDS / SDS posts:
- Multi-source Feedback (TAB / MiniPAT) x 1

Early Stage Peer Review (ESPR)
(worked example in user guide appendix)
- Very similar to Clinical Peer Review / “Safe Beginner”
- For FDs in DFT weeks 1-4 only
- Informal assessment – emphasis is on feedback
- Judgements made against current stage in training

A’DEP’T (D-EP Assessments)
(Worked Example in User Guide appendix)
- Amalgamation of Mini-CEX and DOPS
- Flexible across all posts
- New insight rating…
- 1 per month

Dental Case-based Discussion (D-CbD)
(Worked Example in User Guide)
- Very similar to previous version
- “Dentalised”
- Space on reverse to record questions used to probe trainee
- New insight rating
