Question: What can you make out of cereal boxes, stuffed crust pizza and rubber bands?
Answer: A very "innovative" lesson on coronary artery disease.
Yesterday I had to teach a lesson on coronary artery disease in a post clinical conference. The problem was that I would be teaching the class in a room that had only a white board. In a world where everyone expects a PowerPoint that can be a very challenging task indeed.
So... a couple of hours on Monday night and a few bowls of cereal later, I found myself wiring a giant cardboard sternum. After adding a clavicle, a humorous, a scapula, and a couple of rubber bands; I had a model with which to demonstrate the importance of sternal precautions. Add to that a stuffed crust pizza as an illustration of arterial plaque and a story about a beer bellied, bare chested football fan and you've got yourself a lesson.
