ABOUT THE CLASS
This year we will learn many medical terms that you will use every day in any healthcare career. The course takes a “body systems approach” to medical terminology, and will consist of a series of lectures, worksheets, interactive games, projects, and computer resources. Because each unit builds upon the last, it will be essential for your student to stay current with their assignments.
General Requirements
This course is recommended for students in Grades 10-11 and has a prerequisite of completing Principles of Health Science. Medical Terminology is a prerequisite to “Health Science Theory and Practice” next year. Students must successfully complete Principles of Health Science and Medical Terminology in order to move on to the 3rd year course.
