My Project

The students that I teach all have an interest in working in healthcare. The items on this list will be used by the students practicing compounding. Medical math, especially conversions are hard for students to understand.

These compounding labs help students learn medical math in a way that they can visually see.

The students love hands-on activities that can help them show what they have learned. I also use these lab activities as a second form of assessment. Some students are not great test takers but can do these activities from start to finish without assistance.
