Pharmacology Master Mapper Workbook

Once upon a Medical/Surgical ward in a community hospital, a Registered Nurse precepted countless nursing students and noticed a common problem throughout entire cohorts of nearby programs. Intelligent, book-smart students seemed to lack an understanding of how all of the concepts they had learned fit together. Each piece of information taught in nursing school is an important piece of a puzzle. Concept maps are one of the best ways to study how information fits together. But concept maps are time-consuming to create and fill with information... right? Introducing The Pharmacology Master Mapper, a color-coordinated workbook of concept map templates to assist in studying large amounts of information and memorizing the most pertinent facts and figures. Ideally, use this workbook either before or after class to fill out information in every box. Filling out concept maps for the disease processes being covered in lecture before you attend class allows you to highlight the information that your professors emphasize during class, which could help you during your next exam. Alternatively, filling out the concept maps after class facilitates a thorough review of each drug before the exam, which can be equally beneficial in terms of memorizing information. Because each type of information (i.e., side effects, labs...) is present in the same place on each page, this workbook streamlines the process of flipping through pages of information before an exam to easily pick out the data that is specific to a certain disease. Fill out the table of contents as you go to make studying a breeze. Write additional notes on the left side of each set of pages, and keep track of what you missed on exams to help you study for the final more thoroughly. Contents of the book include 48 blank concept maps for you to fill out and increase your comprehension. The opposing page across from each concept map allows you to take additional notes on the topic. Snag a new workbook for each pharmacology class in nursing school to keep the (infinite) information organized. Why work harder when you can work smarter?
