New techniques
This training has shown me new techniques to present to my students.
I tell my students that were going to have a spelling bee game or we play hang man. They really enjoy it ,especially when they are on teams. I allow for them to work together on their team to come up with the answers. It also teaches them teamwork!
Julie, I am sometimes amazed at what students create that is much better than I could envision. Thank you for giving your students that opportunity.

I asked each student to create a game using the elements of medical terminology. We all enjoyed playing the different games. The games reinforced and helped evaluate learning. A lot of laughs, friendly competition, and creativity occurred.
Kimberly, thanks for sharing this great idea!

Using new and fun techniques helps hold the student's interest level. To help with medical directional terms I have employed a method that has helped the students understand and remember the terms.
I have created a game where the students are divided into groups and are required to create examples of how they would use the term in a sentence. I also have the group demonstrate the term on a dog model. Students pay attention to their peers when they are presenting the terms. I find this to be an overall effective learning tool.
