About me
I am a Medical Assisting Instuctor at Sanford Brown College. Prior to teaching I was an active Certified Medical Assistant for 6 years. I teach mainly clinical courses for the MA program, but I also am the first taste of medicine that the students get when they start their new career adventure by teaching them Medical Terminology.

For this game I create 2 stacks of index cards with answers and 2 stacks with clues or questions. I then take the answers and tape them all over the school, both sets. Thenk I split my class in two teams and give each team a stack of teh the clues/ questions and they have a set time limit to gather all the answers that match the questions and have to be sure not to get repeats as that means they are stealing the other teams answers. The first team to complete the hunt in the time frame given is… >>>
The institution that I work for stands firm on the law that we cannot ask a student if they have a learning disability. Are there any suggestions out there on how to determine disabilities with out asking the student so that they can be more appropriately accomodated in a fast paced class environment?
Our program teaches in 5 week modules. That is 5 weeks for a dyslexic student to memorize and understand the basics of Medical Terminology covering 22 chapters and over 3, 000 new medical terms.
Agreed. So many wonderful tools and ideas to put into my future classes.

I agreee. The majority of my classes are clinical in nature and this course gave me a lot of new ideas to put into practice.
