Medical Terminology: Active Learning Through Case Studies provides a unique approach and considers medical words in terms of common combining forms, prefixes, and suffixes to determine meaning in context. Students feel empowered when they realize they have the knowledge to dissect a long, complicated medical term into simpler parts to determine its meaning. The text is organized by body system with related terms describing anatomical features, pathologies, and procedures grouped together in story form for easy recall.While engaging students with real-world stories and medical records to help learn medical terms is not unique, having a book with such a large collection of these cases is novel. The book is designed to provide instructors with a framework for students to apply their medical terminology knowledge as part of the learning process. The case studies have been designed as classroom activities for a semester-long medical terminology course and can also be integrated into course assessments or assigned for review and reinforcement. Every new print copy includes Navigate Advantage Access that unlocks a complete, interactive eBook, student practice activities, learning analytics reporting tools, and more!Features: Ten case studies per chapter, and over 100 in total, organized by increasing complexity from Standard to Advanced, giving instructors the ability to assign cases based on the level of their studentsConsumable working text that allows students to create their own study book by keeping notes directly in the bookSlide-based teaching presentations that include an origins slide, which reveal the etymology of highly relevant, unique, or complicated terms to provide students with context and scaffold the case content\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eChristensen, Arne:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \"1 Arne K Christensen, PhD Assistant Professor of Biology Department of Biology Westfield State University 577 Western Avenue Westfield, MA 01086-1630 achristensen@westfield.ma.edu Cell: (413) 230-0748 Fax: (413) 572-8109 Education Ph.D. in Molecular and Cellular Biology, 2008 University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst, MA B.S. in Biology, 2000 University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst, MA Professional Experience Assistant Professor of Biology, Spring 2019 - current Westfield State University, Westfield, MA Primary Research Emphases: Cytoskeleton\/Osmoregulation Associate Professor of Biology, with tenure, Spring 2018 - Spring 2019 Anna Maria College, Paxton, MA Primary Research Emphases: Cytoskeleton\/Osmoregulation Assistant Professor of Biology, Fall 2012 - Spring 2018 Anna Maria College, Paxton, MA Research Emphases: Cytoskeleton\/Osmoregulation Assistant Professor of Biology, Spring 2011 - Spring 2012 York College \/ City University of New York, Jamaica, NY Research Emphasis: Osmoregulation Research Scientist, McCormick Lab, Summer 2011 Postdoctoral Fellow, McCormick Lab, 2008 - 2010 U.S. Geological Survey Conte Anadromous Fish Research Center, Turners Falls, MA Research Emphasis: Osmoregulation Adjunct Professor, Fall 2006 Springfield Technical Community College, Springfield, MA Biologist (training), NOAA Bottom Trawl Survey 2004 National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Woods Hole, MA Research Associate, 2001 - 2002 ImmunoGen, Inc., Cambridge, MA Project Emphasis: Cancer Antibody-Drug Conjugates Arne K Christensen - CV - 2 2 Courses Taught Anatomy and Physiology I Lecture (14 sections) Anatomy and Physiology I Lab (19 sections) Anatomy and Physiology II Lecture (12 sections) Anatomy and Physiology II Lab (13 sections) Introduction to Biology Lecture (2 sections) Introduction to Biology Lab (5 sections) Cell Biology Lecture (4 sections) Cell Biology Lab (4 sections) Introduction to Chemistry Lecture (2 sections) Introduction to Chemistry Lab (3 sections) Developmental Biology lecture (1 section) Developmental Biology Lab (1 section) Genetics (1 section) Microbiology Lab (3 sections) STEM Media Content Development Author of lab exercises, Visible Body virtual anatomy software - Body Tissues. 2019.
