Using Multi-Instructional Teaching and Technology-Supported Active Learning Strategies to Enhance Student Engagement
University professors are developing an increasing awareness of how creative teaching is contributing to active learning in the classroom. Much is being learned from research that explores the significance of engaging students in activities designed to increase their learning. This article examines essential components of active learning, discusses ways in which multi-instructional teaching and technology can be used to generate active learning in the classroom, and provides examples of strategies, models, and tools that can be implemented to enhance student engagement and active learning in today\u27s classroo

The surgical treatment of substernal goiter
Substernal goiter remains a common consideration in the differential diagnosis of a mediastinal mass. Given the potential for serious goiter-related complications as well as the inability to rule out associated malignancy, it has been our policy to treat all substernal goiters surgically over the past 20 years. During the period from 1972 to 1992, 101 patients with the major component of their goiters below the thoracic inlet underwent thyroidectomy. The most common symptoms were related to airway compression (82%) and dysphagia (37%). In addition, there was a 13% incidence of malignancy and a similar occurrence of thyrotoxicosis in this group of patients. Although total thyroidectomy was performed only for malignant goiters during the first decade, 71% of patients had total thyroidectomies during the second and, with a few exceptions, all procedures were done through a cervical incision. No patient developed permanent hypoparathyroidism, although two developed permanent unilateral vocal cord palsies. Surgical treatment is a safe procedure with rare mortality (none in this series) and low morbidity. Total thyroidectomy was not associated with added morbidity and it eliminates the possibility of recurrent goiter.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/31353/1/0000264.pd
Complications of Thyroid Surgery: How to Avoid Them, How to Manage Them, and Observations on Their Possible Effect on the Whole Patient
Surgery of the thyroid takes place in an area of complicated anatomy and in which a number of vital physiologic functions and special senses are controlled. Thyroidectomy rarely is associated with mortality; but unless the surgeon performing it is well trained in operative surgery and is knowledgeable of the gland and its function, pathology, and anatomy, excellent results cannot be achieved. Failure to observe cardinal surgical principles may result in legal difficulties, which can be avoided. It is well to observe the principles and avoid problems. We address this issue herein.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/42412/1/268-24-8-971_00240971.pd
