Learning Goals
Students will be able to analyze and explain medical terminology word parts across common prefixes, body-part prefixes, color prefixes, physical property and shape prefixes, direction and location prefixes, quantity prefixes, common suffixes, procedure suffixes, and definitions to determine unfamiliar term meanings.
Students will be able to design and revise a 20-minute medical terminology review game with at least 48 accurate questions, directions for play, and an answer key for beginning learners.
Students will be able to collaborate and justify game design choices using peer feedback and word-part evidence to improve clarity, challenge level, and learner support for future medical terminology students.
