Study Strategies Toolbox with Dr. Cyndi Metz


Listen Later

Why do accomplished health

professions students need to learn better study strategies? This week we talk with
Dr. Cyndi Metz, PhD, who is Associate Professor, Vice Chair, and Director of
Graduate Studies in the Department of Physiology at the University of
Louisville School of Medicine. We discuss helping students develop study
strategies for integrated, higher-level assessments in the health professions.
Cyndi describes how faculty can purposefully help students become better test
takers, and she describes a toolbox she created to help students develop
metacognitive and critical thinking skills to answer test questions more
effectively. After listening to this episode, Cyndi’s “One Thing” call to
action is for faculty listeners to model critical thinking for their students
by walking through their thought process to answer practice problems in class. Learn
more about Cyndi’s work and educational resources on her YouTube channel: http://www.youtube.com/HowIMetzYourPhysio.
