Reply to Jeanne Ramos, RDH, BS's post: I am glad that someone understands that some accelerated classes, if the instructor is trying to make sure the class is prepared for regulations and testing requirements after graduation, does not leave much room for games. I teach accounting. If there is a game that can make the students better understand it please tell me about it.  I am using Hands on, PowerPoint and lecture. How can I make it fun? In the last class we played Classroom Fued. That activity turn out to be good for testing their rememberance. They had fun playing the game… >>>

I like to use PowerPoint because it gives you a visual that can be explained while pointing at the object of conversation to 

get away from all of the paper.  However, if I think there is something they will need to refer to regularly, I can copy it

from the PowerPoint presentation.

Group work is good, however, I find that there are people in the group that ride on the work of others.  At other times I notice that there is one person in the group that takes over and don't allow some of the others to interject their thoughts. We should want to present leaders in the workforce not controlling individuals that think they know all the answers. These types of interaction could be the cause of an individual leaving if the individual is a non-combative individual. I just beleive everyone has something to contribute.
