About me

Activity

As an instructor in Allied Health I have found that many of my students do not have critical thinking skills especially when it comes to medical ethics. I have some scenarios that I use to provoke discussion as to 'what are the issues and what is the best course of action'. They do not do well at first only speaking from emotion but as the course continues they begin to think things through more before offering an opinion.
Discussion Comment
AS an instructor in Allied Health I have found that using videos found on the internet to demonstrate procedures can be very effective.

I just completed taking ED104 and was happy to find out that many of the techniques I am using in the classroom were suggested in the course.  The one area I would like to comment on was when the comment on multiple choice questions.  I use these because the certification exams are multiple choice questions and I want my students to have as much practice as possible with them.  I also use other types of questions but feel it would be a diservice to eleminate them or to cut back on the number of them on the test.
