Individual consultation with instructor periodically and as needed. Students are expected to be active learners. It is a basic assumption of the instructor that students will be involved (beyond the materials and lectures presented in the course) discovering, processing, and applying the course information using peer-review journal articles, researching additional information and examples on the Internet, and discussing course material and clinical experiences with their peers. A Discussion Board is provided in Blackboard specifically for students ( Student Lounge ) to share websites, articles, apps, and clinical experiences relevant to the course topics. ASSIGNMENT DESCRIPTIONS *Please note: Rubrics for all assessments are located at the end of this syllabus. Attesting to Course Expectations (1%): Students will attest to learning the expectations of the Department of Nursing and for this course. Students are expected to read the syllabus, become familiar with each course assignment, review each link on the BB course, read the Graduate Student Handbook, submit assignments on time, and follow appropriate methods of timely communication. Discussion Board Activities (#2, 9%): Faculty use these discussion boards to gauge the engagement and progress of each student, so adequate participation in them is essential. The Discussion Boards total 200 points in this course and represents a significant written assignment (including citations). Students use the Discussion Boards as an avenue for synthesis of material / information. A Discussion Board is provided in this course as a way to help students process course materials, express thoughts, and engage others opinions and ideas in a healthy and productive learning environment. Students are expected to respond to all discussion board assessments using the Discussion Board Rubric to support individual answers to the assigned questions throughout this course. Note that citations are expected to support the information posted. Learning Module Quizzes (#4; 18%): A Module Quiz will be administered every other Module (Modules 2, 4, 6, 8). Detailed instructions about the quizzes can be found within the Modules on the Blackboard course site. These are open-book, multiple-choice quizzes and 2 hours are allowed for each quiz. They range from 10 to 20 questions and are based upon the information covered in the Module. Because these quizzes are openresources, the webcam and lock-down browser are not required.

9 Smiles for Life Training Courses (#8; 18%) Smiles for Life: A National Oral Health Curriculum was originally developed in 2005 by the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine Group on Oral Health. It was based in part on materials developed by regional consortia of family physicians, dentists, and educators between 2001 and The initial goal of the project was to provide educational resources to enhance the role of physicians training in Family Medicine residency programs in the promotion of oral health. Currently, the focus is on all primary care clinicians. Smiles for Life is now the nation's most comprehensive and widely used oral health curriculum for primary care clinicians. It has been officially endorsed by 13 national organizations, and is in wide use in professional schools and post-graduate training programs. Course 1= Oral to Systemic Health This course addresses the nature, prevalence, and consequences of oral disease throughout the life cycle with a focus on correlations between oral and systemic health. Students will learn their role in preventing oral disease, addressing frequently encountered oral problems, and working as part of an interprofessional team to promote oral health among their patients. Course 2 = Child Oral Health This course addresses the prevalence, etiology, and consequences of early childhood caries (ECC). Students will learn to assess risk factors, recognize the various stages of ECC, and counsel patients on preventative techniques. Additionally, this module will discuss common oral developmental issues in children such as teething, eruption hematomas, and non-nutritive sucking. Students will use information from this course to prepare a parallel Risk Assessment Tool for the geriatric patient in a later exercise. Course 3 = Adult Oral Health This course addresses how adult oral health is impacted by factors such as disease, aging, medication, and substance use. Students will review risk factors and etiologies of oral conditions, as well as appropriate treatment and referral procedures. Additionally, this module will address how to effectively promote oral disease prevention, coordinate dental care for patients requiring antibiotic prophylaxis, and collaboratively manage anticoagulation in patients undergoing oral procedures. Course 4 = Acute Dental Problems This course addresses the nature of oral pain, as well as acute dental problems precipitated by oral infections or trauma. Students will learn to treat oral pain; accurately assess, treat, and refer patients with oral infections; recognize and triage true dental emergencies; and promote the use of protective equipment to prevent oral injuries. Course 5 = Oral Health for Women: Pregnancy and Across the Life Span This course addresses the importance of oral health before, during, and after pregnancy. Students will explore the prevalence of oral disease during pregnancy and its consequences for both mothers and children, as well as review dental treatment guidelines for pregnant women. Course 6 = Caries Risk Assessment, Fluoride Varnish and Counseling This course focuses on caries prevention. It offers a brief review of Early Childhood Caries (ECC) and address how the use of fluoride is part of a comprehensive approach to a child's oral health. Specifically, students will learn the benefits, appropriate safety precautions, and dosing for fluoride, as well as how to apply fluoride varnish and provide adequate follow-up care. Course 7 = The Oral Examination This course addresses how to perform consistent and thorough oral examinations for children and adults. Students will learn to differentiate between normal and abnormal findings, and will develop an awareness of the needs of special populations such as the elderly or medically compromised individuals. Course 8 = Geriatric Oral Health 9

10 This course addresses the vital role medical clinicians can play in promoting the oral health needs of older adults. Students will learn how to perform a comprehensive oral assessment, identify and manage common geriatric oral conditions, counsel patients on effective preventive measures, and collaborate with dental professionals. Additionally, this module will address the link between oral and systemic health and review common oral side effects of medications. Students will use information from this course to prepare a Risk Assessment Tool for the geriatric patient. Mid-term Formative Assessment and IDEA Summative Assessments (9%) Students will provide course feedback on each assignment, at mid-term (formative assessment), and at the end of the semester (summative assessment). Students will evaluate progress on the following course learning objectives: 1. Gaining a basic understanding of the subject (e.g., factual knowledge, methods, principles, generalizations, theories) 2. Learning to apply course material (to improve thinking, problem solving, and decisions). An will be sent by university personnel when the Summative Assessment is available. Students are expected to check their ASU daily. The anonymous results are reported to faculty the following semester. To earn points for the Mid-term Formative Assessment, post on the Mid-term survey DB. To earn points for the Summative Assessment, post on the IDEA Summative Assessment DB. Community-Based, Oral Health Promotion Project (45.4%): Students will identify a population to assess and develop an evidence-based, oral health promotion program to deliver in their own communities. The student will use a theoretical model or framework of his or her choice. The timeline for this project, grading rubrics, and Black Board Discussion Boards will guide students through each stage of this process. Details about this assignment are located at the end of this syllabus. Portions of this assignment include peer reviews. These peer reviews allow for the exchange of ideas and promote accomplishing the following Angelo State University Student Learning Objectives: Learning to apply course material (to improve thinking, problem solving, and decisions) Developing specific skills, competencies, and points of view needed by professionals in the field most closely related to this course Acquiring skills in working with others as a member of a team Developing skill in expressing oneself orally or in writing Learning how to find, evaluate, and use resources to explore a topic in depth Learning to analyze and critically evaluate ideas, arguments, and points of view Please be respectful of other students time and complete and submit your work on time! This is one instance when late work is absolutely unacceptable as other students have saved this time to complete these reviews. GENERAL POLICIES RELATED TO THIS COURSE All students are required to follow the policies and procedures presented in the following documents: Angelo State Student Handbook located on the ASU website: University Catalog located on the ASU website: University Graduate Nursing Handbook, located on the Nursing website: IMPORTANT UNIVERSITY DATES, SUMMER 2017 June 5 First Day of Class July 4 Holiday July 6 Summer I ends 10

11 11 July 10 August 9 August 9 August 11 Summer II starts Final Exams Summer II ends Grades due by 2 pm STUDENT RESPONSIBILITY & ATTENDANCE This class is asynchronous, meaning you do not have to be on-line at a certain time. There are readings which you will have to complete to be able to adequately participate in individual and group assessments. In order to complete this course successfully, you do have to participate in all course activities i.e. discussion boards, course projects, quizzes, etc. Students are expected to engage in course activities and submit work by due dates and times. Students must complete all assignments for this course to pass this course. Students should make substantive contributions which reflect integration of assigned materials as well as any outside readings as appropriate. Scholarly contribution is an expectation. For planning purposes, this class will probably require a minimum of 6-9 study hours per week, on average, for a 15-week semester or hours per week for a 10-week summer session. Please note: students from other institutions, taking a one-time ASU course, are bound by ASU policies in this course. COMMUNICATION Faculty will respond to and/or telephone messages within 24 hours during working hours Monday through Friday. Weekend messages may not be returned until Monday. Written communication via Blackboard: It is an expectation of this class that you use formal writing skills giving appropriate credit to the source for your ideas. Follow APA (2010) 6 th edition (2 nd Printing or higher only) guidelines for referencing. Written communication via All private communication will be done exclusively through your ASU address. Please check your ASU daily for announcements and policy changes. The ASU Help Desk can help you get your ASU on your cell phone to assist with this essential communication. The Help Desk phone number is or Virtual communication: Office hours and/or advising may be done with the assistance of the telephone, Skype, Join.me, Google Hangouts, etc. Use Good "Netiquette": Check the discussion frequently and respond appropriately and on subject. Focus on one subject per message and use pertinent subject titles. Capitalize words only to highlight a point or for titles. Generally, words that are all capitalized are more difficult to read. Excessive capitalizing may be viewed as SHOUTING! Be professional and careful with your online interaction. Proper address for faculty is by formal title such as Dr. or Ms./Mr. Jones unless invited by faculty to use a less formal approach. Cite all quotes, references, and sources. When posting a long message, it is generally considered courteous to warn readers at the beginning of the message that it is a lengthy post. It is extremely rude to forward someone else's messages without their permission. It is fine to use humor, but use it carefully. The absence of face-to-face cues can cause humor to be misinterpreted as criticism or flaming (angry, antagonistic criticism). Feel free to use emoticons such as J or :) to let others know you are being humorous. (The above "netiquette" guidelines were adapted from Arlene H. Rinald's article, The Net User Guidelines and Netiquette, Florida Atlantic University, 1994, available from Netcom.) ASSIGNMENT SUBMISSION

12 In this class, all assignments need to be submitted through the Assignments link in the Blackboard course site. This process is for grading purposes. Issues with technology use arise from time to time. If a technology issue does occur regarding an assessment submission, us at Beverly.Greenwald@angelo.edu or donna.rich@angelo.edu and attach a copy of what you are trying to submit. This approach lets us know you completed the assessment on time and are just having problems with the online submission feature in Blackboard. Once the problem is resolved, submit your assessment through the appropriate link (grades cannot be assigned until student work is submitted in the appropriate spot). This process will document the problem and establish a timeline. Be sure to keep a backup of all work. LATE WORK OR MISSED ASSESSMENTS POLICY The course is set up on weekly modules. The week begins on Monday and ends on Saturday (except holiday weeks which include Sunday). Assignment due dates are shown on the schedule. Late assignments are not accepted without prior approval of faculty. Faculty reserves the right to deduct points for late assignments that are accepted past the original due date. ACADEMIC HONESTY Academic honesty is expected on all work. Students are expected to maintain complete honesty and integrity in their educational experiences. Any student found guilty of any form of dishonesty in academic work is subject of disciplinary action and possible expulsion from ASU. All codes and policies are set forth in the Student Handbook of Angelo State University PLAGIARISM Plagiarism at ASU is a serious topic. The Angelo State University s Honor Code gives specific details on plagiarism and what it encompasses. Plagiarism is the action or practice of taking someone else's work, idea, etc., and passing it off as one's own. Plagiarism is literary theft. In your discussions and/or your papers, it is unacceptable to copy word for word without quotation marks and the source of the quotation. We use the APA Style Manual of the American Psychological Association as a guide for all writing assignments. Quotes should be used sparingly (if at all), and in most cases are to be avoided (rather; paraphrase). It is expected that you will summarize or paraphrase ideas giving appropriate credit to the source both in the body of your paper and the reference list. Papers are subject to be evaluated for originality via Bb Safe Assignment or Turnitin. Resources to help you understand this policy better are available at the ASU Writing Center STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES Disability Services is part of the Office of Student Affairs at Angelo State University. Angelo State s Office of Student Affairs works to ensure that qualified students with disabilities have equal access to all institutional programs and services. The office advocates responsibly for the needs of students with disabilities and educates the campus community so that others can understand and support students with disabilities. The following includes contact information for Disability Services at ASU: ada@angelo.edu Fax: Houston Harte University Center, 112 ASU Station #11047, San Angelo, TX ASU STUDENT COMPLAINT AND GRIEVANCE POLICY 12

13 Angelo State University complies with the Commission s policy on Complaint Procedures against the Commission or its Accredited Institutions. As summarized in Federal Requirement 4.5, Student complaints, ASU maintains a reasonable and well publicized set of policies and procedures for addressing complaints and appeals submitted by students. Policies governing various types of student grievances are published in the Student Handbook, which is available through the institutional website on the Student Life page, and include the following: General student grievance and appeal procedures Procedures regarding sexual or racial harassment Title IX requirements concerning the handling of sexual harassment and sexual assault complaints Grade grievance procedures (Student Handbook). Grade grievance procedures are also published in the ASU operating policies and procedures (ASU OP 10.03, Grade Grievance) and in the institutional catalogs (ASU Undergraduate Catalog and ASU Graduate Catalog). The Academic Honor Code includes definitions related to academic integrity and outlines disciplinary procedures for academic dishonesty (Student Handbook). The ASU Code of Student Conduct describes specific examples of misconduct or attempted misconduct for which students may be subject to disciplinary action (Student Handbook), and ASU has established campus disciplinary procedures, including disciplinary appeals procedures (Student Handbook), which are followed in cases of student misconduct. The office of Residential Programs has defined expectations for student conduct in the residence halls and outlined disciplinary procedures for incidents of student misconduct (Residence Hall Handbook, available on the Residential Programs page of the institutional website). The relevant complaint policies and procedures are consistently followed and fairly administered when resolving student complaints, and ASU maintains a record of complaints received. Records concerning written student complaints and the outcomes of any appeals are generally maintained by the office responsible for resolving the complaint, as defined in the policies identified above. Complaint records are therefore decentralized. For example, complaint records are maintained by the Office of Student Life, the various academic departments, the five colleges, and in the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. When complaints cannot be resolved by a particular office, they are forwarded through the appropriate chain of command until resolved, as outlined in the relevant policies and procedures. For example, if a grade grievance cannot be resolved at the department level, the grievance is forwarded to the appropriate dean s office. The Student Life Office provides advice regarding the fair administration of university grievance procedures, and the Executive Director of Student Life has primary authority and responsibility for implementing student disciplinary procedures. The office handles a variety of student complaints and inquiries and is often a first point of contact for students who are upset about a university policy or about the behavior of a faculty or staff member. The basic elements of a student complaint record in the Office of Student Life include the name of the student, campus ID number, and a written summary of the complaint. The Student Life Office also maintains records of disciplinary proceedings and appeals, including those related to violations of academic integrity. Students enrolled via distance education have the same rights and responsibilities regarding complaints as students attending face-to-face classes at ASU, and the same policies and procedures apply. INCOMPLETE GRADE POLICY (OP Grading Procedures) 13

14 14 It is policy that incomplete grades be reserved for student illness or personal misfortune. Please contact faculty if you have serious illness or a personal misfortune that would keep you from completing course work. Documentation may be required. STUDENT ABSENCE FOR OBSERVANCE OF RELIGIOUS HOLY DAYS 1. A student who intends to observe a religious holy day should make that intention known in writing to the instructor prior to the absence.

Thank you! Part 3 Community-Based, Oral Health Promotion Project: Demographics Information Objective: 1 The student will do a demographic assessment of the population at an agency to use to tailor the community-based, oral health promotion presentation to their specific needs. Directions: Establish contact with an agency. This agency should be outside of your normal interaction- your children cannot attend the daycare, you cannot attend the church, your grandmother cannot live in the nursing home. This presentation is an opportunity to advance, professionally, and that is best accomplished in a new and novel environment; not among friends, family, and coworkers. Confirm that the presentation date can be between Jul 31 and Aug 8. If this time does not work for your agency, you will need to find a different agency. During a face-to-face meeting with the agency contact, discuss relevant demographic information and then complete the Demographics Form, Column 1, based upon what you have learned. (Please note: This form will be submitted again at a later date with Column 2 completed to demonstrate how the presentation was tailored to meet the needs of the population s demographics. For now, complete the Column 1 information, only. Students will need to go to the facility and discuss and observe the population. This is not an assignment to to the agency contact to complete! Additional sources of information might be nameofcitywiki, Chamber of Commerce, Public Health Department, and US Census data ) Arrange a time and date for the presentation. If the dates between Jul 31 and Aug 8 do not work, then you will need to find a different agency. Complete the Agency Letter of Agreement by replacing all blue font with the accurate and necessary information. After the instructor has an opportunity to review the letter, print one copy of the letter (without the directions or rubric included), sign it, and then send it to the agency contact person. Your letter to the agency should be mailed by Jul 8. ***Make contact with the agency 1 week prior to your chosen date. Agencies have had a change of personnel or the Agency Contact has forgotten about the presentation dates for previous students!

Additional item Due July 29: Propose 2 methods you could utilize in your community to promote a larger-scale campaign to resolve the health problem in your chosen population (because as you have learned, it s a lot of effort to organize presentations to a smaller group). If you have a Policy and Politics text (Mason, Leavitt, & Chaffee), there is a great table full of method options on page 8: The who, what, where, when, and why of nursing s policy influence. Otherwise, you can find a copy of Mason Chapter 1 under Learning Modules 7 and Please add any comments you think would make this assignment clearer, easier to follow, or more effective for student learning. Thank you! Part 2, Measurable Learning Objectives Objective: Develop 2 relevant Learning Objectives for the population. Identify 2 Measurable Learning Objectives by which you can evaluate the participants learning. These outcomes should be worded similarly to the following examples: Upon completion of this education session, participants will be able to: 1 Identify 2 medications that can affect oral health. 2 Demonstrate 2 methods to reduce the impact of mediations that cause oral dryness. You can see from these examples that there will be specifics included in the presentation such that participants can achieve these outcomes. You will also note that each objective has the SMART format.

45 45 S=Specific, M=Measurable, A=Achievable, R=Relevant, and T=Timely. You will note that these examples are not as lofty as participants will have good oral health as that is neither 1) reasonable nor 2) do-able within the timeframe. The verbs you choose should be from Blooms Taxonomy of Verbs for writing objectives. A nice list of these verbs can be found in the Module 7 Reading Assignments on BlackBoard. Also in Module 7 are some helpful tips for writing SMART Objectives. You will need to know this material as you will write SMART Objectives in future courses! Part 3, Presentation Script: Objective: Create a script for a population-tailored, community-based, Oral Health Promotion Presentation. Prepare a script for your community-based, Oral Health Promotion Presentation. A script is a verbatim composition of what you will say during your presentation. Start by introducing yourself to your population. Insert into your script any 1) actions you will take/demonstrations you will make, 2) pictures you will show, 3) props you will use (such as a teddy bear with teeth that children will brush), and 4) hand-outs you will provide (such as an oral health brochure for babies). A powerpoint is not required and I do not want to see it if you do prepare one. Rather, include what you will say and the picture/frame you will show in this Word Document. Be sure to include an evaluation of the objectives, if relevant ie if the objective includes participants will state then include in the script what you will ask them to prompt them to state the measurable objectives selected for your program. Each student will need to review presentation Health Promotion Model selected by 2 students. The review assignments will be posted on the Module 8 Presentation Health Promotion Model Discussion Board. Example of a portion of a Presentation Script with notations in blue: Good morning everyone, I m Beverly Greenwald and I m a masters nursing student at Angelo State University. I m here today as part of my population health and epidemiology for advanced nursing course. I appreciate Sam s help in allowing me to talk to you today about preserving oral health in the residents here at Maple Grove Assisted Living. Thank you, Sam, for the help you ve given me and thank you to everyone for coming! I appreciate this opportunity to show you the important work the Masters prepared Nurse Educator (or Family Nurse Practitioner if relevant) does where people work, live, and play to promote a healthy community. Note how I instructed my participants about the work of the FNP in the community. I hope you will learn a lot about keeping your mouth healthy because our oral health affects our entire health. This presentation will be entirely informal, so if a question comes to mind, feel free to ask it at that time. I hope we will have some good discussion. The model I am applying is the Health Belief Model. This model has 6 components which will help guide me to promote a desire for patients to change how they care for their teeth and oral health. Component of the Health Belief Model Perceived Susceptibility or one s belief regarding the chances of developing a condition Beliefs I will need to strive to create in my participants. I believe a variety of risk factors can affect my oral health including medications, dry mouth, dentures, medical conditions, long history of smoking or using chewing

46 46 Perceived Severity or one s belief regarding the seriousness of a condition and its sequelae Perceived Benefits or one s beliefs in the effectiveness of actions to reduce the risks of a condition Perceived Barriers or one s beliefs regarding the total costs of implementing the recommended action Cues to Action or the strategies available to promote one s readiness to participate in the recommended action Self-Efficacy or one s intention to take the recommended action tobacco, difficulty brushing teeth adequately due to lack of strength or coordination, and insufficient money to get adequate dental care. I believe that these factors can adversely affect my oral health, including to the point of losing my teeth and impairing my ability to eat and smile. I believe there are things I can do to reduce the effects each of these factors have on my oral health. I believe there is minimal or no cost involved in reducing the effect of some of these factors on my oral health but the expense of treating these conditions could be costly. I believe I should talk to my provider or pharmacist when I receive medications so I can best manage the potential adverse effects on my oral health. I can talk to my provider, pharmacist, and dentist regarding ways I can compensate for other issues and promote better oral health to the best of my ability. I believe I will talk to my provider, pharmacist, and dentist the next time I see them so I can reduce the potential adverse effects on my oral health. First I am going to address Perceived Susceptibility or one s belief regarding the chances of developing a condition. The first thing I want to talk about are oral health risk factors. What are risk factors anyway? Oral health risk factors are things we can anticipate will endanger people s mouths and teeth. Can anyone list any special risk factors that seniors may have when it comes to oral health? (Pause and wait until someone provides an answer. Respond to whatever answer is provided.) Can anyone think of another special risk factor for seniors? (Pause and wait until someone provides an answer. Respond to whatever answer is provided.) Seniors can actually have quite a few risk factors and it s important to know about them so actions can be taken to reduce these risks. (Show a slide entitled Oral Risk Factors in Seniors: Medications, dry mouth, dentures, medical conditions, long history of smoking or using chewing tobacco, difficulty brushing teeth adequately due to lack of strength or coordination, insufficient money to get adequate dental care.) You can see that a lot of things can endanger the mouths of seniors. Some of you might have one or more of these issues going on right now. Fortunately, I m going to talk about each of these risk factors and what we can do to help you maintain a healthy mouth. The first risk factor I m going to talk about is medications. There are many medications that can have an effect on oral health. (Show a slide entitled Medications that Affect Oral Health.) Medications that Affect Oral Health (Note, here I have the picture I would show during my powerpoint presentation, but I do not submit a powerpoint. Rather, I show how I integrate the powerpoint content into everything I say and do.)

47 47 Medication Antihistamines Bladder control Blood pressure Parkinson s Dilantin Antibiotics Chemo Oral Health Problem Caused Dry Mouth Swollen gums Thrush Sores, thrush These effects include (read from the slide) dry mouth such as from medications like antihistamines for allergies, medications to control bladder leakage, blood pressure, or for Parkinson s; something called gingival hyperplasia which is when the gums swell, such as while taking seizure medications like Dilantin; antibiotics, as any type of antibiotic can result in a fungal growth commonly called thrush; chemotherapies can cause mouth sores and make people more likely to get thrush. In summary, your script is where you document everything you do, say, and ask of your participants as well as what you will expect them to do and all of the props or handouts you will have.... At the end of your presentation, you will need to evaluate your Learning Objectives. My chosen Learning Objectives were: Upon completion of this education session, participants will be able to: 1 Identify 2 medications that can affect oral health. 2 Demonstrate 2 methods to reduce the impact of mediations that cause oral dryness. OK, we ve covered a lot of great information today and I appreciate your participation! It s been a pleasure to work with you and show you how the FNP works with patients to prevent problems and maintain oral health. Let s see how we did on learning what I hoped you would learn. My first objective for you was to be able to identify 2 medications that can affect oral health. Who can list one of them for us?
