Glad the patient scenarios will work with your lab classes. Scavenger hunts are also effective ways to orient learners and introduce supplies and equipment.

Yes, dealing with a variety of learning and personality styles all in one class is a challenge. I've learned you can't please all of the people all of the time, but you can do your best to invite them to learn in active ways.
