Study Notes
Traditional Teaching Strategies
- Traditional teaching strategies include lecturing, discussion, questioning, using audio visuals, and interactive lecture.
- Lecturing involves giving a discourse before an audience or class for instruction, and there are different types such as traditional, participatory, and mediated.
- Hierarchical or classical lecture is the most commonly-used form, while problem-centered, comparative, and thesis lectures are also used.
- The purpose of lecturing is to introduce new topics, stimulate interest, integrate knowledge, and clarify difficult concepts.
- Advantages of lecturing include being economical, role modeling for students, and developing listening abilities, while disadvantages include emphasizing facts over problem-solving and analytical thinking, surface learning, not meeting individual learning needs, and limited attention span.
- Discussion involves the exchange of ideas related to a central topic or problem among two or more people.
- Techniques for facilitating discussion include setting expectations and ground rules, arranging physical space, planning discussion starters, and directing the discussion among group members.
- The purpose of discussion is to apply principles, clarify information, learn group problem-solving, and potentially change attitudes and values.
- Advantages of discussion include encouraging participation by everybody, making learning interesting, and training in self-expression and reflective thinking, while disadvantages include taking a lot of time and a few people monopolizing the discussion.
- Questioning involves types such as factual, probing, multiple-choice, open-ended, discussion-stimulating, and those that guide problem-solving.
- Techniques for asking questions include preparing them ahead of time, stating them clearly and specifically, listening carefully to responses, and handling wrong answers carefully.
- The purpose of questioning is to assess baseline knowledge, review content, arouse curiosity and motivation, and guide thought processes in a certain direction. Advantages include facilitating reasoning and analysis in problem-solving skills, while the disadvantage is the need for constant improvement in questioning ability.
- Using audio-visuals, such as handouts, chalkboards/whiteboards, overhead transparencies, slides, and videotapes, can greatly enhance teaching and add interest and stimulation to the classroom when used in conjunction with other teaching strategies. Disadvantages include the need for technical assistance and availability of materials. Interactive lecture involves blending lecture, discussion, questioning, and audiovisuals together to engage learners periodically throughout class. Disadvantages include limited class time, potential difficulty in large classes, and lack of needed materials, equipment, or resources.
Instructional Objectives in Health Education
- Instructional objectives are statements that define what learners are expected to gain from a Health Education Plan (HEP).
- SMART objectives are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, time-bound, observable, measurable, achievable, and simply stated.
- To write effective objectives, it is important to specify the type of learning, state the objective from the learner's point of view, state the terminal behavior, specify the conditions under which the behavior will be performed, and state the degree of proficiency or criteria expected.
- Objectives can be classified into four domains: cognitive, affective, motor skill, and interpersonal.
- Well-stated objectives follow the ABCDs framework: Audience, Behavior, Condition, and Degree.
- Certain verbs are recommended for writing objectives, such as explain, recognize, choose, describe, identify, select, classify, demonstrate, list, and state.
- Poorly-written objectives lack clarity or specificity, such as missing conditions, criteria, or measurable terms, or containing multiple behaviors or missing time frames.
- Examples of well-written objectives include the learner's ability to trace the conduction system of the peripheral nervous system using a schematic diagram, conduct a thorough interview with a simulated patient with arthritis, verbalize feelings or concerns associated with wearing a colostomy bag, or state examples of high sources of protein.
- Examples of poorly-written objectives include the patient's ability to prepare a menu using low-salt foods without conditions or criteria, or understanding how to control low-back pain without measurable terms or criteria.
- Instructional objectives help ensure that learning outcomes are clear and measurable, and that learners can successfully achieve their goals.
- Health educators, nurses, and other healthcare professionals can use instructional objectives to design effective educational programs, develop appropriate assessment tools, and evaluate the effectiveness of their teaching strategies.
- By focusing on specific, measurable, and achievable outcomes, instructional objectives can help learners improve their knowledge, skills, and attitudes towards health and wellness, and ultimately achieve better health outcomes.
