Overview
Within each lesson, students complete an online study that teaches specific information about that unit’s accountability criteria. Most studies conclude with an assessment measuring the student’s comprehension of the subject matter.
Next, teachers use lesson plans and suggested activities, such as role-playing, projects, and group activities, from the Instructor’s Guide to reinforce the accountability criteria within the health care environment. Rubrics are included to assist teachers in assessing group and individual performances.
