How to Learn Medical Terminology Using CD-ROM Games

    Visual Memorization

    • 1). Start the CD-ROM and play a game, such as hangman or a word search puzzle.

    • 2). After finishing the game, write down as many terms from the game as you can.

    • 3). Use the anatomy chart to review the terms, and recall any that you did not list. For non-anatomy terms, relate them to anatomy, if possible such as "injection" and "arm."

    • 4). Set the list aside, and use the anatomy chart to recall the terms. Note how many you recall.

    • 5). Continue with other games using the same strategy with the anatomy chart to recall the new terms, then recall as many in total as you can.

    Auditory Memorization

    • 1). Play a CD-ROM game. Relax and enjoy it for best results.

    • 2). Write down as many terms as possible from the game you just played.

    • 3). Stand up and walk around, stretch, or yawn to relax and change focus for a moment.

    • 4). Review the list you wrote speaking each term out loud, and add any additional terms that you remember.

    • 5). Review the entire list speaking each term, and proceed to the next game.

    Kinesthetic Memorization

    • 1). Play a game from the CD-ROM.

    • 2). Make a list of all the terms you remember from the game.

    • 3). Point to a spot on the anatomy chart representing the term. For those not directly associated with anatomy, point to an associated part, such as heart for "stethoscope."

    • 4). Review your list and add any additional terms you remember from the game.

    • 5). Repeat the memorization by pointing to anatomy or associated parts on the anatomy chart for each term.
