Study Notes

Domains of Learning and Evaluation in EMS Education

Classroom activities to target each domain: Cognitive-lecture, discussion, reading, diagramming, case studies, and drills; Psychomotor-skills practice, scenarios, simulations, and role-playing; Affective-modeling behaviors and role-playing situations involving affective domain content.
Learning within one domain is often interdependent with another domain: Psychomotor skills development requires cognitive knowledge and guidance, successful with self-directed students.
Review course and lesson objectives to determine depth and breadth: Teach one level deeper than the objective requires, engage multiple senses for better retention, the importance of reinforcement in long-term memory.
Depth and breadth samples: Examples of different cognitive levels of objectives and the thoroughness required in teaching them.
Cognitive knowledge of a skill does not imply competency in performance: Integration of cognitive knowledge with psychomotor skill practice and performance is necessary.
Evaluating the affective domain of learning: A tool in the appendix for evaluating the affective domain, comes from DOT/NHTSA/HRSA EMT-P curricula.
Evaluation methods for each domain: General information on evaluation concepts in Module 12, additional information on the evaluation of each domain in Modules 16, 17, and 18.
Examples of evaluation methods: Cognitive-written examinations, static presentations, and oral examinations; Psychomotor-skill competency exam, scenario-based exam, evaluation in clinical or field setting, on-the-job performance; Affective-class participation, leadership, peer supervision, role modeling, adherence to policies.
Students' preference or aptitude for learning domains: Some students excel in the classroom but struggle with psychomotor skills, and vice versa; EMS profession requires competency in all three domains.
Importance of competency in all domains for EMS practice: An EMT must achieve minimum competency in cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains for effective practice.
Bibliographical resources: Various resources cited for further reading and understanding of instructional design and assessment in EMS education.
