Nephrology Medical Scenario

Purpose

This assignment allows learners to interact with medical terminology by designing a medical scenario based on their own creativity and career interests featuring a typical day in the life of a medical professional. Also, the setting for the scenario should be interesting to the student based on the type of organization where they will likely seek future employment. Likewise, learners practice writing complete sentences featuring several medical terms that are related to one another and have the opportunity to create a YouTube video of themselves reading and/or summarizing the scenario.
