25
learners must be assessed for readiness to learn before presentation of the educational materials so that behavioral changes may be implemented
change theory
26
the learner must be self- motivated in addition to begin able to self evaluate with clear cut goals and outcomes. (stephens, 2016)
humanist theories
27
patient education
*standard for the professional of nursing *one of the most important nursing interventions in any healthcare settings *goal of education to achieve optimal health
28
who makes standards for patient education requirements
joint commission
29
*imparting knowledge through a series of directed activities *conscious, deliberate set of actions: *gain new knowledge * change attitudes *adopt new behaviors *perform new skill *interactive process that promotes learning
teaching
30
definition: conscious or unconscious permanent change in behavior as a result of a lifelong, dynamic process by which individuals acquire new knowledge/ skill/attitudes. *begins when learner identifies need to learn
learning
31
teaching process
*identify a need or information is required *identify specific learning objective to describe behaviors the learner will exhibit as a result of the teaching,
32
steps in the teaching -learning process
*assessment *diagnosis & development of expected learning outcomes *planning your teaching *implementation of teaching plan *evaluation of expected outcomes *achievement of learning outcomes
33
SMART objectives
*specific: address one thing *measurable: how will you know they learned? *attainable: client must agree and be mentally and physically capable *realistic/relevant: is is something they need to learn? Are they willing and able? *Timely: timeframe to accomplish the objective
34
implementation in teaching
*age appropriate, must maintain learning attention and participation *printed material readability formula for 6 th grade level
35
teaching Aids:
*used to enhance any teaching *includes: drawing, models, charts, graphs, audiotapes, bulletin, boards, chalkboard, posters, pictures, TV, Flash cards, programmed instruction, and game.
36
evaluation
*have the patient's learning needs been met? *reinforces correct behavior, changing incorrect behavior, helps educator determine adequacy of teaching
37
the 3 domains of learning:
Cognitive, affective, psychomotor
38
cognitive:
*memory *understanding *recognition *reasoning *application
39
psychomotor
*skill performance *demonstration
40
Affective
*changes in attitudes or values *motivation
41
cognitive Domain
*"the understanding domain" *ability to use and make sense of information
42
produce new or original work, design, assemble, construct, conjecture, develop, formulate, author, investigate
create
43
justify a stand or decision: appraise, argue, defend, judge, select, support, value, critique, weight
evaluate
44
draw connections among ideas: differentiate, organize, relate, compare, contrast, distinguish, examine, experiment, question, test
analyze
45
Use information in new situations: execute implement, solve, use, demonstrate, interpretate, interpret, operate, schedule, sketch
apply
46
explains ideas or concepts: classify, describe, discuss, explain, identify, locate, recognize, report, select, translate
undestand
47
recall facts and basic concepts: define, duplicate, list, memorize, repeat, state
remember
48
create, evaluate, analyze, apply, understand and remember
cognitive domain
49
appropriate teaching methods for cognitive learning
discussion, lecture, one on one instruction, audiovisual material, printed material, computer assisted instruction
50
evaluation of cognitive domain
*direct observation of behavior *written measurements *self-reports/self-monitoring (subject)
51
affective domain
"the feeling domain" includes values, beliefs, feelings and attitudes associated with information received
52
appropriate teaching methods for affective learning
*role play *simulation/gaming *discussion (groups) *discussion (one on one) *debate *values clarification exercises
53
psychomotor domain
*the skill domain *includes physical and motor skills *uses cues from the environment *must have physical, mental, emotional readiness *performance of skill moves from imitation to create of new way to perform skill
54
appropriate teaching methods for psychomotor learning
*demonstration *practice *return demonstrate *independent projects; games
55
motivational interviewing
what motivates your patient? what is important to your patient? let the patient choose the topic of most interest ask: what is the most important for you to learn?
56
basic principles
is your patient ready to learn? do they have physical needs at the moment? are they in pain? do they prefer to be with a support person when they learn?
57
basic learning principles:
motivation ability to learn learning environment
58
desire or willingness to learn
motivation
59
ability to learn
cognitive attributes, developmental level, physical wellness
60
learning enviroment
well lit good ventilation appropriate furniture quiet private comfortable temperature
61
ability to learn
are they developmentally capable? are the physically able? are they strong enough and coordinated to perform psychomotor skills needed? need to consider age and developmental level
62
the degree to which individuals have the ability to find, understand, and use information and services to inform health related decisions and actions for themselves and others
health literacy
63
strategies of education
assess health literacy use clear verbal communication use clear written communication promote reliable sources discuss medications clearly use teach back method
64
principles and methods: young & middle adults
learning must be practical & relevant, and for young adult, related to them. *learner must see the need *some young adults still in the stage of "it won't happen to me" *use peer education , make relevant to them *learner often motivated by social task mastery, so relate learning to those tasks (work, play, relationships) *encourage active &independent learning *keep sessions under an hour *give time to practice skills in private
65
principles of teaching and methods for older adults:
*give time to process information & respond *teach when alert and rested *fragmented sleep /wake cycle, REM sleep (important to learning) *involve in discussion or activity *focus on wellness and person's strengths, may have disabilities *make adaptation to accommodate impaired senses *simple instruction, teach only what necessary *keep sessions short (20-30 minutes) relate new material to pass experiences in meaningful ways *address one idea at the time provide a written or recorded summary of session *ability to read, understand & act on health information
66
considerations for teaching older adults:
*coordinate: start with person's concerns, plan enough time for session, match your pace with the person *anticipate: recognize more than problem, screen for prevalence problem, be aware of any communication barriers, musculoskeletal changes *manipulate: modify the environment by reducing the noise, comfortable temperature, lighting, privacy *consider person's comfort: provide assistive devices and don't rush them *demonstrate value: check information obtained from older person with family member ,staff.
67
learning for older adults: challenges
teaching time relevance roadblocks sensory perceptual; deficits cognitive declines non compliance
68
learning for older adults: approaches
visual aids such as printed material *active involvement *relate to past experiences *peer educator and support groups *simplicity and repetition *support belief that change is good *capitalize on the teaching moment
69
formal patient education examples:
a class scheduled for newly diagnosed diabetic patients: subject might include diet modification, benefits of exercise and blood glucose monitoring
70
other examples of nurse -taught formal education include:
*childbirth classes for a group of expectant mothers *class for nursing students on the proper methods of obtaining vital signs. *demonstration for patient on caring for a surgical incision before discharge *CPR classes for other healthcare employees
71
informal patient education examples:
the patient or caregiver might ask a question about a procedure, medication or treatment while the nurse is at the bedside. the nurse uses the questions as an informal teaching opportunity. *what the medication do? *how long will procedure take? *what happens during this test? *does medication causes side effects? *will the procedure hurt?
72
the goal of Teach back to assess for understanding
effective child and family self management
73
teach back to assess for understanding
1) teach new concept or skill *repeat new learning in own words or demonstrate skill (teach back) 2)clarify or correct misunderstood information *repeat correct information 3)what questions do you have? 4) continue process until concept or skill is understood
74
health literacy principles
encourage questions use plain language limit teaching to 3-5 concepts
75
self-direct learning
learning occurs when individuals seek the information themselves
76
collaborative learning
occurs over time through multiple interactions with other such as nurses, etc.
77
incidental learning
occurs through mistakes and motivates the learner to engage
78
questioning, lecture demonstration group discussion role playing
teaching styles
79
domain of learning
cognitive domain psychomotor domain affective domain
80
cognitive domain
requires memorize and recollect on of presented material to understand, apply, analyze, and evaluate the information
81
psychomotor domain
use physical movements or motor skills during the teachable moment
82
affective domain
recognizes the importance of emotions involved when learning new material requires: motivation, emotion and attitude
