For some unknown reason, my students are just about the only students that do not enjoy the crossword puzzle activities. Any suggestions as to why that may be?

This is my first time teaching Medical Terminology and I had no idea about the wealth of active learning resources available for the course. I initially began teaching the class by lecturing and then engaging them in PPT classroom response questions. The feedback I received from the students prompted me to drop the lecture style altogether. They were receptive to the classroom response questions so I continue to use those - but have now incorporated in-class worksheets and group activities. They now have fun while learning and are actively engaged - no more 'bombies!'
