Health Professions Instructor Resources

Published February 24, 2020


Instructor Resources:

You can rely on McGraw-Hill to provide support for instructors and students for a successful and engaging education experience when using our instructional products.

Because most Health Professions students are striving to obtain a certified credential that indicates being qualified to perform their job to professional standards, the Learning Outcomes for McGraw-Hill’s Health Professions products are mapped to relevant competencies set by the credentialing agency for each healthcare profession. This means the instructional materials, exercises, digital applications, quizzes, and exams are linked to the learning outcomes. The instructional materials, including the Instructor Manual and PowerPoint presentations, are mapped to the learning outcomes as well.

What does this mean for you? More time to teach and engage students and less time preparing for accrediting agency site visits. McGraw-Hill has done the work for you. Using the Asset Maps, you can easily demonstrate how:

  • You teach the information required for the competencies
  • Students demonstrate proficiency of required skills
  • Students’ understanding of the instruction is assessed

Check out each of the components by going to the Instructor Resources site in Connect® (http://connect.mheducation.com) for any McGraw-Hill Health Professions product.

In addition to being listed by Learning Outcome, the test bank questions are also linked by levels of Bloom’s Taxonomy.
