Student Workbook for Digital Radiography in Practice

This new edition of the Student Workbook is designed for in-classroom  use and organized in a “fill-in-the-blank” format. The wording of each  question corresponds with the lecture slide series Digital Radiography  in Practice: Instructor PowerPoint Slides, 2nd Ed. and closely matches  the progression of concepts in the textbook. The guiding philosophy is  to provide immediate or short-term reinforcement of lecture and reading  material by focusing on keywords. Thus, the Workbook should be used on a  daily basis, not as a self-test or review after whole units have been  covered. “In-class use” is the most recommended method for use with the  Digital Radiography in Practice Instructor PowerPoint Slides, 2nd Ed.  The Workbook and slides are designed to work in tandem with each other  to actively engage the student in classroom learning. The instructor may  elect to require this type of classroom and award points for completion  of each unit. If the Workbook is used as a reinforcement tool for  homework, it is strongly recommended that the student answer the  corresponding questions after reading each major section of a chapter.  If students wait until after completing an entire chapter, they may have  trouble recalling the keywords elicited by each question and are more  likely to confuse different concepts. Major unit subheadings are  included in the Workbook to match the textbook. For the purposes of unit  review, self-testing or preparation immediately prior to a test,  “Chapter Review Questions” are provided at the end of each chapter in  the textbook. Answer keys to these questions may be made available from  your instructor. This Workbook is an invaluable teaching instrument that  allows the student to concentrate on the lecture by doing minimal  writing while still challenging the student to participate in classroom  learning. An efficient “note-taking” tool, it is an important  reinforcement tool for homework and individual study.
