In my medical Terminology class, I break down the class into 3 groups, we've played where I ask a question and then they have to agree on it as a team and write it on the board, spelling counts. Also broke my class into 2 groups and played "Family Feud" in Medical terminology which both have worked out

As a new instructor you need to go in and be confident, and don't get rattled when things don't go the way you think they should or the students are testing you.

I have done the last 3 mods (5 week courses) a survey at the first day of class, asking what it the best way they learn, is there anything I need to know about them and their learning style or taking test? i.e. learning disability, needing to be put somewhere else where they can read the tests out loud or have someone read it too them
