Synopsis

For courses in Medical Terminology.

Keying Interest

Unlocking Medical Terminology serves as a key to discovering a new language, in a fun, eye-catching, yet scientifically precise way.  The book is designed to be used as a text to support lectures, or as an independent student workbook.  The flexibility of its application is made possible by the book's text-like format combined with its self-guided, exercise-driven learning program.

 Wingerd uses a stair-step approach that mirrors the way that many people learn.   Instead of assuming you will absorb volumes of information in one step, this book presents topics in smaller pieces.  Self-quizzes give you the opportunity to master the information before you build upon it in the next section.  This approach allows you to work at your own pace and ensures success.

2) Stair-Step Approach

A progressive approach that mirrors the way many people learn.  Instead of assuming you will absorb volumes of information in one step, this book presents topics in smaller pieces.  Self-quizzes give you the opportunity to master the information before you build upon it in the next section.  This approach allows you to work at your own pace and ensures success. 

 

Each step is organized around the core elements of learning medical terminology: word parts, anatomy & physiology, and word building.

·        “Word Parts Focus” breaks down the essential components of terms in each chapter.

·        “Getting to the Root of It” takes a close look at word roots, which are the basis for many basic anatomy & physiology terms.

·        “Let’s Construct Terms” assembles all the word parts presented throughout the chapter and builds more complex words relating to pathology conditions and procedures.
