I currently have a few students who already work in the patient care setting. I find it difficult to engage them when it is about topics they are already familiar with. However, I do get more of a response when the material is more program-specific. Any thoughts on engaging them during the material they know?
Hi Jennifer,
Most students enjoy sharing the experience as it applies to the course.

I agree, I would ask those students to share their experience and that usually starts a great class discussion.
Explain that although they are familiar with the situation or topic being discussed they should consider what will be different in their new role.
