No Clinical? No Problem. How to Engage Health Science Students in the Classroom

Not every class has clinical access, but that doesn’t mean students can’t gain meaningful skills. Here’s how to bring hands-on thinking into your classroom with no lab needed.

Case-Based Learning

Use real-world scenarios to practice clinical judgment.

Digital Drag-and-Drops

Let students place ECG leads, identify body systems, or match terms interactively.

Peer Teaching

Students can lead reviews or skill demos with instructor guidance.

Gamify Content

Try Kahoot, Quizlet Live, card games, Jeopardy-style games, or medical escape rooms for review days.
