Rationale of Curriculum
The curriculum is designed to address both local and international needs. The curriculum is focused to
prepare students for the international licencing exams and training abroad as well as empowering them to
treat local patients with safety and efficiency. Dentists work as a healer in the community. A dentist should
have evidence based and update knowledge about the epidemiology of the practicing area. The curriculum
of IOD CMH LMC is planned with a collaboration of clinical and basic sciences faculty in addition to
students and family medicine department to ensure that the prevailing health conditions of the society are
treated and dealt with effectively. The emergence of new techniques in preservation of existing dentition
and restoration of the lost dentition and oral structures has led to changes in the curriculum with more
emphasis on new and advanced techniques, procedures and evolution of new and advanced technology
(e.g. CADCAM & Implants).

Learning Methodologies
The following teaching /learning methods are used to promote better understanding:
• Interactive lectures
• Small group discussions
• Practical
• Skill sessions
• Self-directed learning
• Assignments
• Oral presentations by students
Interactive lectures
In large group, the lecturer introduces a topic which explains the underlying phenomena through
questions, pictures, exercise, etc. Students are actively involved in the learning process.
Small group discussions
This format helps students to clarify concepts and acquire skills and attitudes. Students exchange opinions
and apply knowledge gained from lectures and self-study. The facilitator role is to ask probing questions,
summarize, or rephrase to help clarify concepts.
Practical
In practical sessions students observe histological slides under microscope or on multimedia for better
understanding of the subject. They are also required to maintain practical manuals in which they draw and
label histological diagrams and different aspects/views of teeth for better understanding.
Skill session
Students are taught to accurately carve out tooth models from soap for better understanding of tooth
morphology.
18
Self- directed learning
Students' take responsibilities of their own learning through individual study, sharing and discussing with
peers, seeking information from Learning Resource Center, teachers and resource persons within and
outside the college. Students can utilize the time within the college scheduled hours or afterwards for self-
study.
Assignments
Students are given written formative assignments on designated topics. Revision of the topics already
covered by anatomy and physiology departments are given to students as oral presentations.
Oral presentations by students
Students are assigned topics during revision session to enhance their communication skills and group
learning.
19
Curriculum Implementation
Curriculum implementation refers to putting into practice the official document including course content,
objectives, learning and teaching strategies. Implementation process helps the learner to achieve
knowledge, skills and attitudes required of the learning tasks. Learners are a pertinent component of the
implementation process. Implementation occurs when the learner achieves the intended learning
experiences, knowledge, ideas, skills and attitudes which are aimed to make the learner an effective part
of the society. Curriculum implementation also refers to the stage at which curriculum is put into effect.
There has to be an implementing agent as well. Teacher is an important part of this process and
implementation of the curriculum is the way the teacher selects and utilizes various components of the
curriculum. Implementation occurs when the teacher’s formulated course content, teacher’s personality
and teaching and learning environment interact with the learners. Therefore, curriculum implementation
is how the officially planned course of study is translated and reflected by the teacher into schemes of
work, lesson plans, syllabus and resources are effectively transferred to the learners. Curriculum
implementation can be affected by certain factors such as teachers, learners, learning environment,
resource materials and facilities, culture and ideology, instructional supervision and assessments.

Curriculum Implementation
Curriculum implementation refers to putting into practice the official document including course content,
objectives, learning and teaching strategies. Implementation process helps the learner to achieve
knowledge, skills and attitudes required of the learning tasks. Learners are a pertinent component of the
implementation process. Implementation occurs when the learner achieves the intended learning
experiences, knowledge, ideas, skills and attitudes which are aimed to make the learner an effective part
of the society. Curriculum implementation also refers to the stage at which curriculum is put into effect.
There has to be an implementing agent as well. Teacher is an important part of this process and
implementation of the curriculum is the way the teacher selects and utilizes various components of the
curriculum. Implementation occurs when the teacher’s formulated course content, teacher’s personality
and teaching and learning environment interact with the learners. Therefore, curriculum implementation
is how the officially planned course of study is translated and reflected by the teacher into schemes of
work, lesson plans, syllabus and resources are effectively transferred to the learners. Curriculum
implementation can be affected by certain factors such as teachers, learners, learning environment,
resource materials and facilities, culture and ideology, instructional supervision and assessments.

Introduction to Physiology Department
The Physiology Department since inception of the college has made a steady and noteworthy progress.
The department is headed by Prof. Dr. Tanzeela Akram ably supported by a team of seasoned and
experience teachers. This department is well known for providing not only world class training to the
under-graduates but also in breeding curiosity to know the unknown. The faculty members of this
department who are highly qualified and dedicated are the source of inspiration for all their students to
seek guidance for their academic and professional excellence. They along with the Head of the Department
have established an up-to-date laboratory as well as BIOPAC student lab that is an integrated life science
teaching solution that includes hardware, software and curriculum materials that students and faculty use
to record data from their own bodies, animals or tissue preparations. A post-graduate section has been
established where, under permission from the NUMS University we hope to start our M.Phil (Physiology)
classes in the very near future.
Aim
• To expedite the academic growth and development of the undergraduate students
• To enhance the culture of research in both under and post graduate students
• Development of trained medical faculty in basic sciences

discussions, tutorials, practical, and manual dexterity skill sessions.
(i) Methods for achieving cognitive objectives
• Interactive lectures using audio visual aids on power point presentation
• Group discussions in form of large group and small group
• Collaborative learning
• Self-study and reading from learning resources
(ii) Methods for achieving psychomotor objectives
• Performing lab exercises and practical
(iii) Methods for achieving affective objectives
• Interaction with peers, group members, teachers, support staff etc.
• Group discussions (small and large)
• Oral presentations by students
109
Learning Methodologies
The following teaching /learning methods are used to promote better understanding:
• Interactive lectures
• Small group discussions
• Practical and manual skill sessions
• Self-directed learning
• Assignments
• Oral presentations by students
Interactive lectures
In large group, the lecturer introduces a topic which explains the underlying phenomena through
questions, pictures, exercise, etc. Students are actively involved in the learning process.
Small group discussions
This format helps students to clarify concepts and acquire skills and attitudes. Students exchange opinions
and apply knowledge gained from lectures and self-study. The facilitator role is to ask probing questions,
summarize, or rephrase to help clarify concepts.
Practical and manual skills
In practical sessions students perform practical as assigned in the curriculum and syllabus provided by
PMDC. They are also required to maintain a practical manual of the lab work. Understanding and
effectively using the microscope, lab apparatus, blood pressure apparatus etc.
Self- directed learning
Students' take responsibilities of their own learning through individual study, sharing and discussing with
peers, seeking information from Learning Resource Center, teachers and resource persons within and
outside the college. Students can utilize the time within the college scheduled hours or afterwards for self-
study.
Assignments
Students are given written formative assignments on designated topics.
110
Curriculum Implementation
Curriculum implementation refers to putting into practice the official document including course content,
objectives, learning and teaching strategies. Implementation process helps the learner to achieve
knowledge, skills and attitudes required of the learning tasks. Learners are a pertinent component of the
implementation process. Implementation occurs when the learner achieves the intended learning
experiences, knowledge, ideas, skills and attitudes which are aimed to make the learner an effective part
of the society. Curriculum implementation also refers to the stage at which curriculum is put into effect.
There has to be an implementing agent as well. Teacher is an important part of this process and
implementation of the curriculum is the way the teacher selects and utilizes various components of the
curriculum. Implementation occurs when the teacher’s formulated course content, teacher’s personality
and teaching and learning environment interact with the learners. Therefore, curriculum implementation
is how the officially planned course of study is translated and reflected by the teacher into schemes of
work, lesson plans, syllabus and resources are effectively transferred to the learners. Curriculum
implementation can be affected by certain factors such as teachers, learners, learning environment,
resource materials and facilities, culture and ideology, instructional supervision and assessments.

Introduction to Biochemistry Department
Biochemistry department since the inception of the college has made a study and note-worthy progress.
The department is headed by Prof Dr Naheed Z Razwi ably supported by a team of seasoned and
experienced teachers. This department is well known for providing not only world class training to the
undergraduates but also in breeding curiosity to know the unknown. The faculty members of this
department who are highly qualified and dedicated are the source of inspiration for all their students to
seek guidance for their academic and professional excellence. They along with the Head of Department
have established an up-to-date laboratory as well as student lab that is an integrated life science teaching
solution that include hardware, software and curriculum materials that students and faculty used to record
data from their own bodies, animals or tissue preparations. A post graduate session has been established
where, under permission from the NUMS University we hope to start our M.Phil (Biochemistry) classes
in the very near future.
Aim
• To expedite the academic growth and development of the undergraduate students.
• To enhance the culture of research in both under and post graduate students.
• Development of trained medical faculty in basic sciences.

Teaching and Learning Strategies
Multiple educational methods will be used comprising of self-study, interactive lectures, group
discussions, practical, and manual dexterity skill sessions.
(i) Methods for achieving cognitive objectives
• Interactive lectures using audio visual aids on power point presentation
• Group discussions in form of large group and small group
• Collaborative learning
• Self-study and reading from learning resources
(ii) Methods for achieving psychomotor objectives
• Focusing the histological slides on microscope
• Identification of normal histological structures on slides under different magnification
• Drawing and labeling the histological slides on practical note books
(iii) Methods for achieving affective objectives
• Interaction with peers, group members, teachers, support staff etc.
• Group discussions (small and large)
• Oral presentations by students
137
Learning Methodologies
The following teaching /learning methods are used to promote better understanding:
• Interactive lectures
• Small group discussions
• Practical
• Self-directed learning
• Assignments
Interactive lectures
In large group, the lecturer introduces a topic which explains the underlying phenomena through
questions, pictures, exercise, etc. Students are actively involved in the learning process.
Small group discussions
This format helps students to clarify concepts and acquire skills and attitudes. Students exchange opinions
and apply knowledge gained from lectures and self-study. The facilitator role is to ask probing questions,
summarize, or rephrase to help clarify concepts.
Practical and manual skills
In practical sessions students perform practical as assigned in the curriculum and syllabus provided by
PMDC. They are also required to maintain a practical manual of the lab work. Understanding and
effectively using the microscope, lab apparatus, blood pressure apparatus
Self- directed learning
Students' take responsibilities of their own learning through individual study, sharing and discussing with
peers, seeking information from Learning Resource Center, teachers and resource persons within and
outside the college. Students can utilize the time within the college scheduled hours or afterwards for self-
study.
Assignments
Students are given written formative assignments on designated topics.
138
Curriculum Implementation
Curriculum implementation refers to putting into practice the official document including course content,
objectives, learning and teaching strategies. Implementation process helps the learner to achieve
knowledge, skills and attitudes required of the learning tasks. Learners are a pertinent component of the
implementation process. Implementation occurs when the learner achieves the intended learning
experiences, knowledge, ideas, skills and attitudes which are aimed to make the learner an effective part
of the society. Curriculum implementation also refers to the stage at which curriculum is put into effect.
There has to be an implementing agent as well. Teacher is an important part of this process and
implementation of the curriculum is the way the teacher selects and utilizes various components of the
curriculum. Implementation occurs when the teacher’s formulated course content, teacher’s personality
and teaching and learning environment interact with the learners. Therefore, curriculum implementation
is how the officially planned course of study is translated and reflected by the teacher into schemes of
work, lesson plans, syllabus and resources are effectively transferred to the learners. Curriculum
implementation can be affected by certain factors such as teachers, learners, learning environment,
resource materials and facilities, culture and ideology, instructional supervision and assessments.
