Using relationships
The students take pictures of instruments for flashcards and must come up with an audionym or relationship for instant recall.
Teaching new concept can be enhanced by inferences/
relationship.Students can likewise develop critical
thinking and understand scientific rationale of
every action and interventions.
I love getting the students involved in the learning situation as well
When everybody learns, everybody wins!
This is a good activity but I make photocopies of the instruments and we play go fish in teams and the team wins pizza for lunch. But they always seem to end in a tie thats the great part which means everybody wins.
I always find that using acronyms is a good teaching strategy. There is one that I love to use for the Body Systems in which I broke down to make it relevant to the dental field. Students seem to love it, and everyone learns, every time.

No that many learners have phones that take pictures easily, this is a great idea. Thanks for sharing!
