EMSP 1501 Class Preparation Strategies

It has been amply demonstrated that students get more out of lecture time if they are familiar
with the subject prior to class. The objective of my lecture is to have the material I am presenting
make sense in such a way that they grasp both the individual concept, but more importantly, how it
relates to and interconnects with concepts from past lessons but also from ones to come.

The course material is available from several sources. The textbook is obviously available to
them, my lecture PowerPoints are available on D2L as well as the individual learning objectives for
each section. Those learning objectives are incorporated in the exam preparation notes which are
also uploaded to D2L.

I instruct my students at the beginning of class and at intervals through the semester that it is
imperative for them to be up to date on their reading of the material. My class PowerPoints are
designed to serve merely as a basic outline for discussion. The more detailed explanations are found
within the textbook chapters. Ideally, I would like to incorporate the flipped classroom model as it
relates to Bloom’s taxonomy. I would like them to achieve memorization and understanding outside
of class and achieve application and analyzation during my lecture.

In order to facilitate this, my options are somewhat limited in that I cannot alter the grading
rubric by offering extra credit, or additional quizzes (Like the CTAs mentioned in How to Get Your
Students to Come to Class Prepared) The quizzes are designed to track student retention of
material, not to assist them in preparing for class.

One strategy I developed this semester is prior to the lecture, I assign the students one small
concept of the overall lecture to be able to stand up before the class and explain. When I get to that
section in the lecture, I turn the class over to the student responsible for that particular knowledge

and they explain the material. This accomplishes a couple of things. The students are more likely to
cover the material before class if they know they are responsible for a section of it, and it also gets
them used to speaking in front of people about a medical topic, which is a requirement in medicine.



Since I am neck deep in this already, I'm going to stick with Minute Paper, and add Muddiest
Point. My limitations on these are that I cannot add any type of assessment for grade or extra
credit. The assessment I am most interested in how well the students absorbed the lessons from
class to class, so that I might revisit concepts that are not yet clear in a timely manner. The
minute papers allow me to gauge how well the broader concepts are being learned and how much
reading the students did prior to class. Muddiest point allows me to assess more focused concepts
that are not yet clear. I am particularity focused on Pre-assessment, however due to the
cumulative nature of the exams and quizzes, they are also useful in both post assessment and
Summaries.

We are due to discuss Respiratory and Cardiovascular Emergencies next lecture. My proposed
Minute Paper for Respiratory would be:
Describe what reactive airway disease is, and it's main signs and symptoms. About 20 minutes
before class end, I will ask for Muddiest Point, and address them before end of class.

Minute papers have been extremely interesting thusfar, and have allowed me to adjust how I
approach my lecture in both style and content. I decided to compare them to my stated lesson
objectives for each section and see how closely they follow that stated objective as a better means
of assessment. Some are too broad a subject to be covered by a minute of free writing, but I can
choose any section subset to use, as well as using Muddiest Point. Using those in concert, a
Minute Paper at beginning of class, and a Muddiest Point at class end would provide me with 2
sets of useful assessments, from different perspectives.



This is the most basic and perhaps the most important of the myriad of learning
outcomes for the basic EMT. This is the sole outcome that incorporates philosophy and
a degree of ethics that directly influences how care is performed and the solid decision
making that must accompany it.

1. Understand the roles and responsibilities of the EMT within the EMS system.

a. By the completion of the lesson, students shall be able to differentiate the roles
and responsibilities of the EMT-Basic from other prehospital care providers. They will
understand the particular levels of care and responsibility for each of the four (4)
distinct levels of EMS providers, (EMR, EMT, Advanced EMT and Paramedic) and use
this information to implement individualized care plans for treatment and transport of
each patient. Achievement of this objective will be measured by both written
quiz/exam and practical demonstration during clinical rotations.

Bloom's level is Application of Information for new situations.

b. By the completion of this lesson, students shall be able to describe the
responsibilities related to personal safety. They will understand and be able to execute
a plan to prepare for their role in implementing strategies to ensure their personal
safety in dangerous and unpredictable environments. Achievement of this objective
will be measured by both written quiz/exam and practical demonstration during
clinical rotations.

Bloom's level is Application of Information for new situations.

BOPPPS LESSON PLAN

COURSE: EMSP 1501
Lesson Title: Shock

Class Preparation Strategy: Assign the students individually one small concept of the overall lecture to be able to stand up before the class and
explain. When I get to that section in the lecture, class is turned over to the student responsible for that knowledge and they briefly explain the
material assigned to them.

Bridge: A video showing a real-life femoral artery bleed in an animal will be played. It is difficult in an abstract setting to visually connect with how intense
that is. This video is simultaneously educational and attention getting. It sets the stage for the importance of learning and understanding the material being
presented. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BMwZ6tomn0
Bloom’s Level Comprehension
Estimated time: 5 minutes

Course Student Learning Outcome:
1. Understand and be able to assess and treat shock.

Learning Objectives: By the end of this lesson, students will be able to:
1. Define precisely shock and its stages, classifications, physiological responses and progressions. Achievement of this objective will be measured by
both written quiz/exam and practical demonstration during clinical rotations.
Bloom’s Level Analysis
2. Post assessment and analysis of the presence of shock and its clinical manifestation, develop and implement a treatment plan to mitigate the effects
and progression of shock and adjust those strategies based on observable and measurable changes in patient condition in order to improve the
clinical outcome for patients encountered in shock. Achievement of this objective will be measured by both written quiz/exam and practical
demonstration during clinical rotations.
Bloom’s Level Application

Pre-Assessment: Minute Paper. Students will be asked to take a blank sheet of paper and in one (1) minute free write what they have learned from their
assigned reading of the course material prior to class. These will be collected at the end of class and evaluated based on a pre-established Grading Rubric in 3
categories, the highest being clear definition of shock, clear description of at least one (1) type of shock and any effective treatment for any type of shock.

Estimated time: 2 Minutes

Good Questions: EMSP 1501

1. You have just placed a female who is 9-months-pregnant on a back board. The
patient was stable prior to this and was complaining of back pain. She is now
unresponsive, is breathing rapidly, and has a weak, rapid pulse. Which of the
following is your MOST immediate priority?

A. Administer Oxygen at 15LPM/NRB
B. Tilt the backboard to the patient’s L side
C. Place an oral airway and begin to ventilate
D. Place the patient in the Trendelenberg position

Bloom’s Analysis level. Student must assess condition and demonstrate the ability to use
that assessment to formulate a treatment plan. All distractors are valid, however the
ability to determine the most pressing is what is being assessed.

2. You are assisting with the transport of a 2-year-old child who fell 15 feet from an
open window in a home. The child was screaming initially, but now is quiet and
sleepy. The pulse is about 60 beats per minute. What does this rate indicate?

A. Hypoxia
B. The patient is becoming calm

C. Spinal cord injury
D. Cardiac function is normal

Bloom’s Analysis level. Student must assess condition and demonstrate the ability to use
that assessment to formulate a treatment plan, then recognize a change in condition and
assess a cause. Not all distractors are absolutely correct, however they are plausible and
challenge the student’s knowledge of several causes of these symptoms.

3. You are called to the scene of a patient in respiratory distress who is now
unresponsive to verbal stimuli and snoring. Which of the following is the MOST
appropriate action for this case?

A. Insert an OPA
B. Insert an NPA
C. Use suction
D. Insert an EDTLA

Bloom’s Application level. Student must assess condition and demonstrate the ability to
use the proper treatment plan. Only one answer is valid for this case, but all are valid
options for airway management.

4. Your patient is a 40-year-old female complaining of chest pain. List the steps in
order necessary to properly assess her pain.

Bloom’s Understanding Level. Student must demonstrate understanding of the steps
necessary to perform a good pain assessment. The order is important, but partial credit
can be given for proper steps but out of sequence.
