MLS MOD 3-4 Flashcards
What are the qualities of medical technology students?
Outstanding Behavior and Attitude, Determination, Fully Equipped with Motor Skills, High Level of Curiosity, Analytical and Critical Thinking, Industrious and Hardworking, Good Communication Skills
what are the types of learning style?
dependent learners, collaborative learners, independent learners
They prefer teacher-directed, highly structured programs that require explicit
compliance with assignments set and assessed by teachers.
dependent learners
They are discussion-oriented and favor group projects, collaborative
assignments, and social interaction.
collaborative learners
They prefer to exercise an influence on the content and structure of learning
programs. These learners have a higher level of learning, wherein the basic concepts have already been studied and absorbed.
independent learners
learning by feeling (involvement in an experience) - In this mode, the learning experience may differ from one person to another.
concrete experience
learning by reflection, watching, and listening - It is a form of learning via reflection, watching, and listening.
reflective observation
During the learning process, some
medical technology students can easily grasp concepts ideas. The instructor may facilitate this process by raising questions to stimulate critical thinking. Moreover, some learners may develop an abstract conceptualization through case studies.
abstract conceptualization
learning by doing - These learning modes are easily seen and experienced by learners during the course of laboratory examination as it involves experimentation.
active experimentation
what are the different learning modes?
concrete experience, reflective observation, abstract conceptualization, active experimentation
what are the dimensions of learning?
personality of the learners, mode of information processings, social and situational interaction, instructional methods
Medical technologists are able to perform tests in eight or more different disciplines and, thus, have a wide range of career options. Every day brings a different challenge and new problems to solve.
multiple careers
Test results have an immediate impact on the care given to patients. Making a real difference in patients’ lives contributes to high levels of job satisfaction among medical technologists.
job satisfaction
Medical laboratory technologists often work independently with minimal supervision. While still a key member of the healthcare team, medical technologist have greater control over their daily routine than many other healthcare professionals.
independence
The demands for fasting testing and constant monitoring of a patient’s illness may necessitate the involvement of medical technologists in clinical practice.
