Our fearless leader, Dr. Bjorn, is back and we are all so happy to see him. The students greeted him with smiles, hugs and applause. And then he jumped right in and put them to work. Today several students told stories about patients and successes they have had over the past year.
Here Tun Myaing, the Class President, Saw Warr, and Nilar are sharing with the students.
Yesterday, before Dr. Bjorn arrived, the students worked on finishing their felt bodies. They were promptly named Adam, Eve and Mary. Later, the students will report on the functionality and complications or diseases of each organ.
Each day the students engage in a little friendly competition to challenge their opponents with their medical knowledge. Divided into three groups, each are given an opportunity to "spin the wheel" and be asked an Easy, Moderate, Hard or Bonus medical question. They will receive points for each correct answer. (And the instructors have a chance to throw in some added teaching) Currently Group 3 is in the lead with 18 points. During the last week of February we will announce the winning group. Here Ma Ma Naing is spinning the wheel for Group 2. Dr. Jove has been providing them with some pretty tough questions!
Our thanks to Nurse Lynda from Canada for providing the Wheel.
