Problem-Based Learning (PBL) Cases: Students review patient cases that require critical thinking to arrive at the correct diagnosis and patient intervention. Challenge Scenario: Students act out a complex scenario that contains multiple issues and requires strong problem-solving skills. Simulated patient experiences: Students appreciate what it's like to experience various conditions, such as schizophrenia, sensory or communication deficits, geriatric mobility difficulties, and more. Wrecking Ball: Students create models of wrecking balls to demonstrate the principles of kinesthetics and determine how those principles apply to vehicle crashes and other mechanisms of injury. Simon Says: Students take turns being Simon, using medical terms to direct their classmates' movements. Paramedic Flipped Classroom helps instructors shift away from the role of lecturer, allowing traditional instructor-centered classrooms to transform into student-centered learning environments where instructors can have an even greater impact on student outcomes.
