ED310 Teaching Medical Terminology in Fun and Exciting Ways

I really enjoyed this course and have utilized a lot of the activities. My students under the age of 21 really enjoyed the word search and crossword puzzles. With my adult learners, tonight I am going to employ the Mystery Weekly Term. I found the instruction to be easy and fun. The computer software also worked well. I also received suggestions from other online users which was valuable to me as an instructor. The tutorials are great too. I did the one on listening skills and picked up some valuable ideas.

I use the web site www.ritecode.com to have students review and take online graded quizzes on insurance, coding and med. term. It holds their interest and they get immediate feedback.

adoption of ball toss

I am going to incorporate the ball toss activity in my medical administrative office class tomorrow. All of the students are under 21 and their attention spans are less than 15 minutes. This activity will also instill not only valuable learning concepts but team work as I teach in an urban environment that lends itself to bringing the street issues into the classroom if allowed.

medical terminology flash cards

I find that my adult learners enjoy making up flash cards of the medical terms in each of the body systems. I also have them practice together with their cards, and I have them draw pictures as well on the flash card. For example, they may draw a body part such as a kidney or heart, etc.

class management

Totally enjoyed the suggestions in the class management course. I even started redoing past techniques that I forgot about. The student descriptions are so true to life.
