I learned to get creative when teaching complicated subjects.
I am enjoying learning different ways to teach content. I like the situation game because I am a clinical instructor and need pocket Ideas to stop students on the go.I am really enjoying this course
I like the T Shirt Idea! Very Classy!
Comment on Katina Knight's post: I like the visual object regarding the celluar -arterial system. Using different shapes of candy and the assembly of it reinforces the circulatory system.
Using creative household items and stories to commit important information to memory is a great idea.
I learned that most learners could place the cuff on the bottle and practice blowing up the cuff and learning to release the valve so that pressure comes out at a controlled rate.
I plan to use the shower cap idea to show the infant skull/suture lines in reference to labor and delivery.
I love the idea of the t-shirts! This is useful for students who take health assessment when they are struggling to know where to place the stethoscope to visualize underlying organs.
I like the idea of the T shirts to draw the organs of the thorax or the sheet to draw out the cardiac cycle. Information in this module is really inventive and helps me consider other ways to teach, even in the clinical setting, where smaller sized examples like this may work.
I loved the creativity of the course, I will use some of the ideas mentioned.
Shower cap brain anatomy and the cardiac circulation sheet are great teaching tools to use with students.
Comment on Wilhelmina Mensah-Aggrey's post: I think using the t-shirts and the full size sheet for demonstration and practice of A&P will be a very informative and fun activity for students to do.
Drawing the brain on the plastic cap and Drawig the anatomy on the T shirt are good ideas for learnig the anatomy.
I like the sheet idea to teach fetal circulation. Looking forward to trying it out.
I like the shower cap and tshirt drawing anantomy
It is vital to remember that not all people learn the same way, and employing multiple methods of teaching helps to keep the material fresh and interesting, and for students to learn this all the better.
Visual and tactile learning helps students that need to touch and feel when learning. See, touch, and feel help this type of learner. Organize thoughts.
Very interesting course to teach classes
