e.APPLYING YOUR KNOWLEDGE
CRITICAL THINKING QUESTIONS
1.As a child, you learned many things from your
parents. Consider the types of teaching that
you experienced, and think about how you
could use both formal and informal teaching to
help children accomplish the following goals:
a.Avoiding drugs and alcohol
b.Learning how to cook a healthy meal
c.Dealing with peer pressure
2.Observe nurses teaching and counseling
patients and family members to promote
health, prevent illness, restore health, or facili-
tate coping. What methods did the nurse use to
identify each patient’s learning needs? Was the
nurse successful in teaching this patient? How
would you have handled the teaching process
differently? Assess each patient’s knowledge,
attitudes, and skills needed to independently
manage his/her own healthcare.
3.Devise a plan to teach a woman how to lose
weight by reducing the fat content in her diet
and developing an exercise routine using the
following methods:
