NOT FOR SALE OR DISTRIBUTIONviiAcademic books on Medical Terminology began to appear in the United States in the late 1950s and early 1960s. At that time, most authors were professors teaching Medical Terminology courses to college students in a health field. Many of us respect their creativity, dedication, and decision to publish college textbooks in this relatively new discipline in the United States.

7 They received little guidance from other textbooks on Medical Terminology and relied more on personal experience gained from clinical settings and teaching in a health the last 50 years, Medical Terminology has evolved into a required course for most careers in the allied health fields, such as nursing, physical therapy, and clinical laboratory service. With millions of students enrolled in Medical Terminology courses, the number of available college textbooks has risen into the hundreds, including both print and electronic traditional and basic design of the contents of a Medical Terminology book varies according to the extent of coverage, course units, didactic approaches, student competency, and many other considerations. The contents in Medical Terminology Basics : Programmed Instruction are based on a didactic approach using programmed instruction and are designed to achieve these goals: 1.

8 Successful Learning of the Basics of Medical Terminology by repetitive processes 2. Obligatory, but minimal, supervision by an instructor 3. Flexibility for both instructors and students: supervision, self-regulated progress, and time portioned for a step-by-step teaching and Learning approach 4. Fulfillment of academic requirements for a course on the Basics of Medical terminologyThe introduction of this book provides further details about these four goals. There are only a few Medical Terminology books that use programmed instruction because its acceptance as a classroom text is dependent on two important academic considerations: 1) curriculum requirements and 2) the unique profile or needs of students. You, as instructors and students, will determine if this book has fulfilled your expectations in teaching and Learning the advance of the Internet, Medical Terminology Basics : Programmed Instruction makes full use of the resource powers of the electronic medium to accomplish the goals of the printed product.

NOT FOR SALE OR DISTRIBUTIONixI am grateful to one special colleague, among others, for the completion of Medical Terminology Basics : Programmed Instruction my long-time partner in writing and publishing, Peggy Stanfield.

10 In 1993, we completed a 900-page manuscript on programmed instruction in Medical Terminology . For reasons beyond our control, the project was never published. In 2001, she gave me permission to select, use, revise, and update parts of the manuscript in order to prepare a smaller book on Medical Terminology using the same didactic approaches. It took nearly 10 years for me to complete this new project. Without her assistance and blessing it is unlikely that Medical Terminology Basics : Programmed Instruction would have been all know how hard it is to prepare the manuscript for a technical book. Actually, the production of both a book and its accompanying websites poses equal difficulty, though the challenges are of a different type. Many people were involved in the production of this book and its websites.
