EBP Education, Active Learning and the Stabe Babe
Active learning can take a variety of forms. Add a few students, a little humor and creativity to the mix and you just never know what might happen. After all, what does the reality TV show "The Bachelor" have to do with clinical decision making and physical therapy? Take a look:
Now, this just wasn't all about coming up with something novel to enhance learning and for physical therapist students at Texas State University students to "get into it" No indeed. One of the motivating factors was that our students saw the video the Regis students posted related to the manipulation CPR and wanted to step-up it up a notch. Hats off the students who took this thing on their own and ran with it and made it their own (Donald Archer, Cody Burough, Danielle Cousins, Andrea Friesenhahn, Geoff Nadeau, Jason Penoli, Lindsey Smith, Courtney Thompson).
OK, it is clear there is a whole lot of room for developing and sharing these kind of learning modules. Who else is up to the challenge? I don't know, but it wouldn't surprise me if you don't see the EIM Team formally come out with some kind of "Best Of" competition. Stay tuned (not to Reality TV, but the Real PT Blog).
