The central theme (focus) for the IPPM II course is on professionalism and ethical issues that commonly occur within the context of providing oral health care. This is a multi-disciplinary course designed to introduce conceptual elements in practice management by integrating the APEX field experience into the course content. The instructional design for this course is seminar based where real life cases are discussed (defined as case-based learning). In utilizing a ¿case-based¿ design for this course, we are making the necessary linkage between this course and a series of related courses and rotations in the pre-doctoral curriculum. They include Comprehensive preclinical dentistry, APEX rotation, Professional Ethics Development, Behavioral Sciences, Health Care Law, and IPPM IV (with a focus on practice management for the recent graduate).
