Methods of effective teaching
I think that the t-shirt method and swim cap method of illustrating anatomy were very creative.
I'm teaching a small A & P I class this semester geared toward surgical techs. I will be using the T-shirt idea for something. A small class is perfect to try it out.
Amy, I think this is an idea you can adapt to your content. Thanks for having an open mind to a new teaching idea.

I thought the T-shirt exercise was a fun idea. We have been discuassing ways of incorporating this activity with animal patients. It will be interesting to see how they react to having the t-shirts om.
I think they are good ideas!
Linda, I think using the variety of activities and methods is the key to reaching all the learners on your class.

These are both good learning activities. We all have a mixture of students in our classrooms who have different learning styles. I agree that combining lecture material with a hands-on-activity will stimulate all types of learners.
I agree that both of these exercises engage students actively in learning the material. In engaging students, the more senses you include the better they learn the material. You engage visual and kinesthetic learners well in these types of exercises.
