    Study Notes

    Creating a Positive Learning Environment for EMS Instructors

    • A positive learning environment is free from harm, discrimination, and teasing, and encourages tolerance, acceptance, new ideas, and creative problem solving.
    • Involving students in deciding what they will learn can help motivate them, for example, allowing them to choose the order of presentation for unrelated topics.
    • Communicating clear expectations to students regarding course participation, grading policy, attendance, reading assignments, and grievance procedures is crucial.
    • Emphasizing the most important material in the curriculum using NHTSA/DOT course objectives and task analysis is essential.
    • Students learn better and faster when their basic needs are met in a positive learning environment.
    • Repetition of skills performance, even when the student performs well, reinforces mastery and proficiency.
    • A positive learning environment allows students to grow by taking risks, encourages safe experimentation, and provides a safe place to make mistakes.
    • Desirable student behaviors include moral integrity, strong work ethic, honesty, courtesy, respect, and being engaged and active learners.
    • Undesirable student behaviors to discourage include lying, cheating, stealing, violence, intolerance, prejudice, carelessness, and unprofessional behavior or appearance.
    • Instructors should model desirable behaviors, be over-prepared for presentations, and remain current on skills and knowledge.
    • Maintaining a positive classroom environment involves modeling expected behaviors, enforcing rules consistently, and providing written copies of rules for students.
    • Instructors should also watch their language content and tone of delivery, be honest and frank with students, and accept the uniqueness of others.

    Educating EMS Instructors: Domains of Learning and Evaluation

    • The development of one's value system governs behavior in the domains of learning.
    • Classroom activities target cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains through various methods such as lecture, skills practice, and modeling behaviors.
    • Learning within one domain is often interdependent with another, as cognitive knowledge is essential for effective psychomotor skill development.
    • Educational learning models encourage experimentation, but students should be guided and mentored by instructors.
    • Teaching one level deeper than the objective requires is advised due to memory degradation over time.
    • Engaging multiple senses in the learning process improves material retention, with 90% retention achieved through saying and doing.
    • The depth and breadth of teaching should align with the objectives, emphasizing higher-level cognition.
    • Cognitive knowledge of a skill does not imply competency in performance, as integration with psychomotor skill practice is crucial.
    • Evaluation of the affective domain can be done using a tool from the DOT/NHTSA/HRSA EMT-P curricula.
    • Evaluation methods for each domain include written/oral examinations, competency exams, and class participation.
    • Some students excel in specific learning domains, but the EMS profession requires competency in all three domains for professional practice.
    • The EMS profession necessitates cognitive, psychomotor, and affective competencies for effective patient treatment.
