Stanley  +  19271 Thu, 15 Jan 04 01:57 AM Hi. I work at a school in Vancouver that has been offering a medical English course since 2001. Please let me know if you know of any cool materials out there for our classrooms that are more audio-visual. I would really appreciate it!

	yokota  +  21011 Sun, 01 Feb 04 01:51 PM Unfortunately I myself don't have any cool materials for a medical English course. I practice medicine in Japan and sometimes see foreign patients. Usually the common language is English, of course. And occasionally I present my paper at an overseas medical conference. Educational materials using current audio-visual technology would be quite impressive, especially when we learn English conversation. I don't deny the value of those materials, but in my opinion, when we want to get acquainted with 'Medical English', the first thing we have to confront is to build up the medical vocabularies enough for us to practice medicine and present papers at an international conference wherever we live in the world. I find it interesting that you are teaching medical vocabularies. Teaching and learning, face-to-face interaction between faculty and students is still the best foundation. Building up vocabularies may be a low-profile effort, but it is the key to medical science in general, just like anatomy is the key to medicine. Just a comment on the significance of vocabulary building in medical English. Thank you. yokota Joined on Sat, Jan 31 2004 New Member 02 Medical English, Vocabulary, Learn English, Conversations
