Day 287 – Wednesday 10th November 2010

It didn’t rain and we wake to a bright, hot morning.

Armorel is off to Umanda for her last clinic there, and I am going to attempt a novel idea. The students are going to write and then mark some of their own practice exam questions.

It didn’t work too badly at all, and we are going to continue this tomorrow. We have created quite a good bank of revision questions.

Armorel had a busy but fun day today. They usually run the clinic in some primary school buildings but today there are some national exams, so they had been kicked out. Picture the scene; Armorel dealing with the babies under a tree, one doctor consulting on the back seat of the truck and the other on a tree stump, the pharmacy in the back of the truck with reception and the lab was set up under little tree. This is Africa!

This evening we have sat and tried to make Armorel’s hand-outs for her cardiovascular teaching readable. The photocopier seems to have missed most of the words.

Only 5 more to go!
