      @professorbriancaykorrt3621 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I appreciate your comment & you are free to express your viewpoint here anytime, Medically speaking, abortion kills a living human being. As a medical community, this is an ethical/moral issue we all must evaluate & face the facts on. In too many cases such as the issue of abortion, feelings are allowed to drive the practice rather than the evidence. I am Biased towards doing no harm, an oath I am bound to as a medical professional. That means both patients in the case of a pregnancy. It is a good conversation to continue amongst the medical community & in legislation. Again, Thank You for your comment & sharing your viewpoint.

    • @brandonchester2236
      @brandonchester2236 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I honestly don't feel he was pushing any agenda, he was just stating scientific fact. No scientist will tell you that life hasn't started at conception. It's people with their own agenda who will tell you otherwise. It's up to each person to make their decision on what they are going to do with their body, and that of the living fetus. But I actually found it refreshing that he didn't tiptoe around the issue and instead stated the facts from a scientific standpoint, regardless of what someone may have to say about it.

    Hi, Hope you are doing fantastic. I am not sure this is relatable to you. I have reviewed your channel “Professor Brian Cayko, RRT” Your video content is amazing and I enjoyed it very much. Look, you have uploaded 41 videos and achieved 713 subscribers and your videos are not viewed and subscribed that much. The numbers should be more than they are now. You need to optimize your channel and do video SEO to reach your target viewers. Otherwise, if you upload videos to your channel throughout the year, none of your videos will get viral views. So you need to optimize your TH-cam channels & do video SEO organically then your channel will rank & grow very fast and monetization of your channel will be on if you wish. For more details, I can arrange a Zoom meeting at your convenience. Are you interested in improving those issues?

    I am listening to these medical terminology videos while I am working and I am learning nothing. For an instructor to just show a few things in the book, why is this even recorded for TH-cam, we don't have your book and there's a reason we are trying to learn from videos. Better explanations of the words and word parts for each word and chapter would be much more helpful.

    • @briancayko
      @briancayko ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Mandilynn, thanks for your feedback. These sessions are the screen recordings from a synchronous online course that was presented fully online with students that of course have the textbook. I included pics for this reason knowing not all viewers would have the books. It is my hope to fully re-do the videos at some point in the future as stand alone videos designed specifically for a TH-cam audience. I will certainly aim to provide a better experience in those videos with that audience in mind. I appreciate your input.

    • @rootsm3
      @rootsm3 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Well I believe he’s a professor at a university and he’s just uploaded them to TH-cam so this isn’t the entire course. I’m already taking a course somewhere else but virtually so this is helping to have a real person verbalize these terms.

      Hello, thanks for the view and the comment. A major part of advancing your degree is positioning yourself for promotion and advancing your career. This is where the extra pay comes in and over the course of years of service, the extra pay far outweighs the cost of advanced education. If you do not want to advance your career then you probably will not need to advance your degree in your lifetime. If you are quite young still, you may see a day where a Bachelors's degree is required but it is speculation as to when that would be.

In my case, I advanced my degree & advanced my career & pay significantly & I personally know hundreds of others in RT that did the same. That is not theory but reality but I think we might be comparing apples to oranges here in what we are talking about. My should be perceived from the perspective of advancing your career through DA & increasing your wage commensurately. Great discussion & a topic that the AARC is & has been looking at every side of the topic for a long time & I know will continue to.
