Abstract

Student acquisition of psychomotor skills in athletic training is diffcult, particularly those pertaining to non-orthopedic injuries and illnesses, which are less common in our patient populations. We provide examples of lesson plans to improve physical examination of the thorax and abdomen. Each lesson (the scratch test, utilization of a noise-immune stethoscope, tactile fremitus, and intent auscultation) allows students to engage in performance of the skill and expand contextual knowledge to enhance skill acquisition and learning.
