After reviewing Module 6: Lecture Materials & Resources, explain approaches to community intervention and evaluation. Implement a teaching and evaluation plan.
- Choose one topic from the prevention strategies and intervention recommendations identified in Module 4 Assignment.
- Develop a teaching plan, including objective, content outline, teaching method, and time in a table format found in slide 3 of the Template Download Template.
- Develop an evaluation plan for your teaching intervention and create a tool for feedback from your learners. Be sure to include the questionnaire and any other teaching tools within the powerpoint presentation for faculty analysis.
- Implement the teaching plan and evaluation during Visit 5 of your clinical experience.
- Summarize the outcomes of your teaching plan and evaluation based on the results from the questionnaires.
Teaching Plan:
| Objective | Content Outline | Teaching Method | Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Objective: To educate the community about the importance of regular physical activity for cardiovascular health. | Content Outline:<br>1. Introduction to cardiovascular health<br>2. The role of physical activity in preventing cardiovascular disease<br>3. Types of physical activities and their benefits<br>4. Practical tips for incorporating physical activity into daily life<br>5. Local resources for physical activity | Teaching Method:<br>- Lecture<br>- Interactive discussions<br>- Demonstrations<br>- Q&A sessions<br>- Handouts and visuals | Time: 60 minutes |
Evaluation Plan:
- Pre-Test Assessment: Before the teaching session, administer a pre-test to assess the participants’ baseline knowledge about cardiovascular health and physical activity. This will help gauge their knowledge before the intervention.
- Questionnaire: Develop a post-teaching questionnaire to gather feedback and assess the effectiveness of the teaching session. Include questions related to the content, clarity, and relevance of the information presented.
Sample Questions:
- Did you find the information presented in the session clear and easy to understand? (Yes/No)
- Did the session provide you with new insights into the importance of physical activity for cardiovascular health? (Yes/No)
- Are you now more motivated to incorporate physical activity into your daily routine? (Yes/No)
- Did you find the practical tips provided useful? (Yes/No)
- Would you recommend this session to others? (Yes/No)
- Feedback Form: Provide participants with a feedback form to collect qualitative feedback on what worked well and areas that need improvement. Encourage participants to provide comments and suggestions for future sessions.
- Observations: As the instructor, make observations during the teaching session. Note any engagement levels, questions, or concerns raised by participants.
Implementation:
During Visit 5 of your clinical experience, deliver the teaching session to your target community. Ensure that you distribute pre-test assessments, conduct the teaching session as planned, collect completed post-teaching questionnaires and feedback forms, and make observations.
Summary of Outcomes:
After collecting and analyzing the data:
- Evaluate the pre-test and post-test scores to determine if there was an increase in knowledge among participants.
- Analyze the post-teaching questionnaires to understand participants’ feedback and gauge their satisfaction with the session.
- Review the feedback forms for qualitative insights on strengths and areas for improvement in your teaching approach.
- Consider your own observations and reflections on the session.
Based on these outcomes, you can summarize the overall effectiveness of your teaching plan and identify areas for refinement for future community interventions on the same or related topics.
