Education
Social, Economic, and Political
Trends Affecting Health Care
4. Political emphasis is on
productivity, competitiveness in the
marketplace, and cost-containment
measures to restrain health service
expenses.
5. The healthcare reform movement is
opening up new avenues for expansion of
preventive and promotion education
efforts directed at communities, schools,
and workplaces in addition to the
traditional care settings.
“ Teaching is not only in the content being learned but also involves guiding students
in learning how to learn and think about how to learn.” J.L. Murphy
3. Promote active learning – enable students to actively criticize content they are
learning by talking about the material, writing, outlining, applying, asking
questions, and reflecting about it.
4. Give prompt feedback – enable students to react and understand what aspects of
learning they need to improve on and make needed adjustments in their learning
styles.
5. Emphasize the use of time in each task – ensure that students know time
management
7. Respect diverse talents and ways of learning – learners have different learning
styles and teacher has to devise various teaching strategies and activities to meet
student’s needs
Teaching Principles
1. Hereditary Endowments Principle
- refer to the nature of the child psychological and physiological qualities such as:
* reflexes
* instincts
* capabilities
* impulses
* temperaments
2. TEACHING PROCESS PRINCIPLES
➢ Refer to the techniques used with the students
➢ Teacher working together with students to accomplish the goals or
objectives of education
3. OUTCOME PROCESS PRINCIPLES
> Refer to educational:
* aims
* goals
* objectives
* outcomes
* purposes
* results
GUIDELINES in the CHOICE of TEACHING and LEARNING METHODS
1. Methods should be appropriate to the objectives and content of the course
- varied techniques
- transfer of knowledge – lecture in a classroom setting
- enhance student’s skills – laboratory/RLE
- share clinical experiences – ward classes
- make up the raw material that is the basis for both learning
and development
3. – acquisition of:
* knowledge
* abilities
* habits
* attitudes
* values
* skills
4. Peer tutoring
- student achievers serve as sources for less able students
5. Cooperative learning
- student tutors are able to recall their knowledge in tutoring
- student tutors are able to enhance their social skills
B. Multiple Intelligence
- proposed by DR. HOWARD GARDNER, professor at Harvard Uni.
- Eight different intelligences:
a. Verbal/Linguistic or “word smart”
> good and best at:
* reading
* writing/taking notes
* telling stories/listening to lectures/discussion
* word memorization
> excel in:
* negotiations
* teaching/persuasive speaking
* learn foreign languages easily
- could become good lawyers/teachers/creative writers
b. Logical – mathematical intelligence or “number smart/reasoning smart”
> good in:
* logical reasoning
* abstractions
* inductive/deductive reasoning
> excel in: sciences/engineering/commerce
c. Spatial intelligence or “picture smart”
> good in:
* visual and mental manipulation of objects
* visual memory
* arts/geographic directions
> excel in: arts, engineering, architecture
d. Bodily kinesthetic intelligence or “body smart”
TRANSCIENCE
EDUCATIONAL PROBLEMS
Ex.
* A nurse who works in the hospital must learn how to do
cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
* patient who experienced heart attack needs to know the signs
and symptoms and when to get immediate help.
b. Desirable
- needs that are not life dependent but are related to well –being
- or the overall ability to provide high quality care
Example:
- it is desirable for nurses to update their knowledge by
attending in-service program
- important for patients who have cardiovascular disease to
understand effects of high-fat diet on their condition
C. Possible
– needs for information that is nice to know but not essential
- or required on situations in which learning need is not
directly related to daily activities.
Example:
- a patient who is newly diagnosed with diabetes mellitus
does not need to know about self-care issues that arise in
relationship to travelling across time zones
Methods to assess learning needs:
1. Informal Conversations – needs active listening to pick up cues
and information
1. DEFICIENCY NEEDS
> needs whose absence energizes or moves people to meet them
> lower need must be met first before moving to a higher need
2. GROWTH NEEDS
> needs “met” , they expand and grow as people have experience with
them
> require people to indulge in physical and psychological activities to
stimulate and enhance strength and vigor to proceed to a higher
level task
Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs
Security/Safety
DEFICIENCY Freedom from emotional and physical threat
NEEDS
Physiological/Survival
Shelter, warmth, food, water
Other Learning Needs:
1. The need for competence – competence motivation:
> is an inherent need in human being
> creates drive in oneself to master task and enhance skills
> is essential in coping with the fast changing environment
2. The need for control and self determination
> man is steward of God’s creation, need of control is a must
> man continuously strive for competence and autonomy
> teachers should encourage students to express opinions,
suggestions, criticisms during class lecture/discussions
3. The need to achieve
> drive to excel in learning tasks to experience pride in accomplishment
> is balanced by the need to avoid failure
> students with high need to avoid failure tend to avoid challenging tasks
> students with high need for achievement, tend to be motivated by:
* challenging assignments
* high grading standards
* explicit feedback
* try to face challenges in life
> students who do not want to fail, are motivated by:
* simple assignments
* liberal grading
* protection from embarassment
READINESS TO LEARN
➢ Defined as the time when the learner demonstrate an interest in
learning the information necessary to maintain optimal health
• E = EMOTIONAL READINESS
• E = EXPERIENTIAL READINESS
• K = KNOWLEDGE READINESS
1. Physical Readiness
➢ five major components of physical readiness:
2. EMOTIONAL READINESS
> a state of psychological willingness to learn
> dependent on factors such as:
- Locus of control – they are ready to learn when they feel a need
to know something
4. Knowledge readiness
j. Material rewards
- motivate students to learn but has drawbacks:
* to increase rewards periodically
* students may think that material reward is the primary goal in
learning
k. Punishment
- used as a form of intrinsic motivation
- has been assumed to accomplish:
* teach learner to respect authority
* block undesirable responses
* force the learner to do something he was not ready to do or
did not want to do
* set an example for potential offender
* make the student pay attention to class work
* motivate students to learn assigned material
Learning styles
➢ Refers to the ways in which and conditions under which
learners most efficiently and most effectively:
- perceive,
- process,
- store and
- recall
what they are attempting to learn and their preferred
approaches to different learning tasks
Learning defined:
■ The four core learning styles include :
LEARNING AS A PROCESS:
> occurs from the point-of view of the end-result or outcome of teaching
- manifested through change of behavior according to:
* what is acceptable
* consistent with nursing discipline
* which learning is applied
➢ More concerned with what happens during the course of
learning than in the end-result of learning
- emphasis is on the dynamics of learning
- sequence and pattern of change of behavior
➢ Is also described as function
- emphasizes critical aspects of learning such as:
* motivation
* retention
* transfer
- learner gets involved in different mental activities, at the end
learner undergoes the process of:
* unlearning
* relearning
* learning
STAGES OF LEARNING: (theory of Dreyfuss as cited by Patricia Benner
1. Novice
- has awareness of subject area, but only in terms of abstract
concepts and ideas
- possesses little to no ability to put ideas into practice in a reliable way
- follows a set of rules without regard for context in learning
2. Advanced beginner
- has attained marginal learning
- begins to understand the scope of the subject area
- able to apply tools, processes, and principles in contexts to
what they have studied
3. Competent
- a person who acts in novel circumstances
- attained learning after exposure to working knowledge
- new skills and capabilities are internalized
- capable of adapting learning to varieties of situations by:
* analyzing changed circumstances
* choosing alternatives
4. Proficient learner
- has gained experience from different situations
- tools and concepts have been internalized and can be applied
variety of situations without much effort
- has an intuitive, holistic grasp of a situation without having to
ignore problems prior to determining solution.
5. Expert learner
- has fully internalized both perception and action into their
normal work processes
- expert learners are:
MAJOR TYPES OF LEARNING:
1. Ideational learning
- pursued in the:
a. cognition – refers to obtaining knowledge by:
- perceiving - imagining
- remembering - thinking
- discriminating - problem-solving
- integrating - creating
- abstracting
- generalizing
- evaluating
Products of ideational learning = facts, meanings, generalizations, principles
b. - refers to the source of all concepts which
initiates mental
activity.
* interested in people
* tend to be imaginative
* emotional
* strong in arts
* prefer to work in groups
* listen with an open mind
* receive personal feedback
2. ASSIMILATORS
- learners who are more concise and logical in approach
- prefer abstract conceptualization/reflective observations
- ideas and concept are more important than concrete situations
- requires good and clear explanation rather than practical opportunity
- ex. theorists
3. CONVERGERS
- concerned with problem-solving
- prefer technical tasks
- less concerned with people and interpersonal aspects
- best in finding practical uses for ideas and theories, which
they use for problem-solving and decision-making
4. ACCOMODATORS
- have a “hands-on” learning experience that relies on intuition rather
than logic
- attracted to new challenges and experiences, and carrying out plans
- commonly act on “gut” instincts rather than logical analysis
- tend to rely on others for information than do their own analysis
- prevalent and useful in roles requiring action and initiative
- prefer to work in teams to complete tasks
- set targets and work actively to achieve objectives

Green’s Precede and Proceed
Model
It provides a comprehensive structure for assessing
health and quality of life needs and for designing,
implementing, and evaluating health promotion and
other public health programs to meet those needs.
A. David Ausubel
THEORY: Subsumption
Theory of Meaningful Verbal
Learning
Meaningful learning is
thought to occur only if
existing cognitive structures
are organized and
differentiated
B. Atkinson and Shiffrin
THEORY: STAGE THEORY
- The core of this theory is that
information is both processed and
stored in three stages of memory.
1. sensory memory
2. short-term memory
3. long term memory
SOCIAL LEARNING
THEORY
People learn as they are
in constant interaction
with their environment.
Most learning occurs as
a result of observing
other people’s behavior.
THEORIST: Albert Bandura
