I really enjoyed this course and printed almost every activity. I am eager to start using them in the classroom. I teach dental assisting and the students are not required to take medical terminology. These activities will be very beneficial when teaching dental terms.

One difficulty I have encountered is being faced with teaching a new course on a subject matter that I don't feel comfortable with.
I prepare as much as possible, but I tend to feel I don't give my students what they deserve. The more I teach the course, the more comfortable I become with the material.
At times, I feel the students can "feel" my uneasiness about the subject matter.
Any suggestions?

I have a notebook/binder for each course I teach. There have been many times when access to a computer was limited and I had to rely on hardcopies. Also, as I read professional journals, I tend to discover articles that I want to share with the students. Copies of these go straight into the notebook for future reference. The notebooks also help when new faculty are brought on board. It gives them insight into what material is covered and comfort in seeing that most of the material is already at their fingertips.
