Lesson 1 : Introduction to Teaching (Type 1) Flashcards
Engagement with learners to enable their understanding and application of knowledge, concepts and processes
Teaching
Gain or acquire knowledge of or skill in (something) by study, experience, or being taught
Learning
Systematized study of general and fundamental questions, such as those about existence, reason, knowledge, values, mind, and language
Philosophy
This model, also known as the “knowledge, attitudes, practices model” (KAP), is based on the premise that increasing a person’s knowledge will prompt a behaviour change.
Target individuals and groups
Encourage healthy behavior
Unbiased presentation
Only obstacle: IGNORANCE
Change in knowledge, attitudes/belief, behavior
The Rational Model
One of the earliest behaviour change models to explain human health decision-making and subsequent behavior is based on the following six constructs: perceived susceptibility, severity, benefits, barriers, cues to action and self-efficacy.
The Health Belief Model
- perceived threat to sickness
- belief about the chances of getting a condition or disease
Perceived Susceptibility
- belief of consequence
- seriousness of a condition and its sequences
Perceived Severity
- potential positive benefits of action
- belief about effectiveness of action to reduce risk or seriousness of a disease
Perceived Benefits
- perceived barrier to action
- belief about material and psychological cause of taking action
Perceived Barrier
- exposures to factors prone to action
- a factor that would activate your readiness to change (a trigger mechanism), reminder system, and awareness
Cues to action
- confidence in ability to succeed.
- confidence in one’s ability to take action
Self Efficacy
Based on the health belief model, this model proposes that people, when presented with a risk message, engage in two appraisal processes: a determination of whether they are susceptible to an identified threat and whether the threat is severe; and whether the recommended action can reduce that threat (i.e. response efficacy) and whether they can successfully perform the recommended action (i.e. self-efficacy).
The Extended Parallel Process Model
Two Concepts
- asks the Question: “am I at risk for HIV infection?”
Susceptibility or likelihood
perceived effectiveness in adverting the threat
Response efficacy
perceived ability to perform recommended behavior
Self efficacy
viewed as a progression through a series of five stages: pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action and maintenance.
The Transtheoretical Model of Change
Five Stages of The Transtheoretical Model of Change
➢ People do not intend to take action in the foreseeable future
➢ Unaware of problematic behavior producing negative consequences
➢ We think that it would be hassle to change behavior
Pre-contemplation
Asks the Question: “is HIV infection a serious health threat?”
Severity or magnitude or seriousness
Five Stages of The Transtheoretical Model of Change
➢ People are intending to start healthy behavior, but not committed yet
➢ Recognized that behavior may be problematic
➢ Practical consideration on pros/con of changing the behavior
Contemplation
Five Stages of The Transtheoretical Model of Change
➢ People are ready to take action within the next 30 days
➢ Will start to take small steps to change
➢ Believe that when they change behavior, it will lead to a healthier life
Preparation or Determination
Five Stages of The Transtheoretical Model of Change
➢ People have recently changed their behavior or the last 6 months
➢ Would intend to keep moving forward and acquire new healthy behavior along the way
Action
Five Stages of The Transtheoretical Model of Change
➢ People have sustained their behavior for a while
➢ Stage where you prevent relapses
Maintenance
Five Stages of The Transtheoretical Model of Change
➢ People have no desire to return to unhealthy behavior
➢ Sure that they will not relapse
➢ Rarely reach
➢ Often not considered in health promotion program
Termination
The theory holds that intent is influenced not only by the attitude towards behaviour but also the perception of social norms (the strength of others’ opinions on the behaviour and a person’s own motivation to comply with those of significant others) and the degree of perceived behavioural control.
