  1. Creating Learning Experiences that “Speak” of Skill Development Dr. Donna M. Videto, CHES Professor of Health SUNY College at Cortland

  2. Who is speaking of skills??? • National Health Education Standards http://www.aahperd.org/aahe/pdf_files/standards.pdf • HECAT http://www.cdc.gov/healthyyouth/HECAT/index.htm

  3. Who??? Continued • Health Behavior Theories & Models • http://www.cancer.gov/PDF/481f5d53-63df-41bc-bfaf-5aa48ee1da4d/TAAG3.pdf • Best Practices • http://promisingpractices.net/programs.asp

  4. National Health Education Standards NHES

  5. Health Literacy – Design Down

  6. Skill-based Approach • Health Literacy shifts the focus from content-based to skills-driven • Learn, practice & apply skills successfully & often • Positive reinforcement & social supports needed • Enables youth to develop competence & confidence to apply health skills in the real world • Stresses assessment & accountability

  7. Assessment & Teaching

  8. Sample – Assessment & Teaching w/ skill development

  9. Assessment Ideas • Demonstrate understanding of concepts & skills • Videotape projects, photo essay, scrapbook, PowerPoint presentations • Posters, advertisements, bumper stickers, pamphlets, banners • Puppet shows, skits & role plays, song, service learning • Story, log or journal, display, sculpture, storyboard • Advocacy campaigns, PSAs, letter writing

  10. Other Assessment Tools • Checklists • Observation Forms • Questionnaires • Surveys • Interviews • Rating Scales • Attitude Scales

  11. Teaching a Skills-based Approach Skill Pedagogy

  12. Skill Pedagogy • Individuals learn a skill when clearly explained, broken into steps, modeled in a demonstration using all the steps in correct order • Examine examples • Practice in large & small group settings, receiving feedback from others

  13. Skill Pedagogy • During skill practice, allow time for constructive feedback & discussion w/others • Reduce threat of failure • Multiple opportunities to adapt, personalize, & shape a skill as they learn it

  14. Skill Pedagogy • Over practice until automatic • Increase difficulty & complexity • preplanned/predictable to challenging • Provide internal & external rewards • Positive transfer to real life more likely if practice is similar

  15. Focus on assessing the skills From the 2006 NHES

  16. 2006 NHES: PreK- 12 Performance Indicators at preK-2, 3-5, 6-8, & 9-12

  17. NHES Skills • 1. Comprehend Core Concepts • 2. Analyze Influence of Family, Peers, Culture, Media, Technology • 3. Access Valid Information, Products, & Services • 4. Interpersonal Communication Skills

  18. NHES Skills Continued • 5. Decision Making • 6. Goal Setting Skills • 7. Practice Health-Enhancing Behaviors (Self-management) • 8. Advocacy

  19. Health Education Standard 1 • NHES 1: Students will comprehend concepts related to health promotion and disease prevention to enhance health. • CC Core Concepts • Linked to important content areas • Work will demonstrate functional knowledge • Integrate with other content areas & other disciplines • Assessment Criteria – accuracy, comprehensiveness, relationships between concepts, conclusions drawn

  20. Assessing the Student - CC • Did student show facts that were correct? • Did student cover the important information? • Did student show real understanding? • Did student show relationships? • Can student provide some new ideas based on what was learned (draw conclusions)?

  21. Assessing Health Literacy • HECAT • Alcohol & Other Drugs • Healthy Eating • Mental & Emotional Health • Personal Health & Wellness • Physical Activity • Safety • Tobacco • Sexual Health • Violence Prevention

  22. Health Education Standard 2 • NHES 2: Students will analyze the influence of family, peers, culture, media, technology and other factors on health behaviors. • INF Analyzing Influences • Analyze media, parent, family, and community influences on personal health practices • Analyze influence of cultural, peer norms, personal values, and beliefs on personal health practices

  23. INF – Assessing the Student • Did the student show lots of different ways external influences affect health choices that people make? • Did the student show the inside feelings people have when making health choices (internal influences)? • Did the student think about why different things affect the health choices people make?

  24. Health Education Standard 3 • NHES 3: Students will demonstrate the ability to access valid health information and products and services to enhance health. • AI Accessing Information • Ability to access and select valid health information & health promoting products & services • Demonstrates evidence that appropriate sources have been accessed

  25. AI – Assessment Criteria • Differentiates accurate from inaccurate health information • Access helpful people for accurate information • Identify trusted adults and professionals • Assess the accuracy and reliability of assistance for health-related problems

  26. AI – Assessing the Student • Did the student show where they got their information from? • Did the student show why this was a good way to get correct information? • Did the student use a variety of sources? • Did the student show why the sources are good? • Did the student look hard to find the best source? • Did the student show that they know where to go to get help to solve problems?

  27. Health Education Standard 4 • NHES 4: Students will demonstrate the ability to use interpersonal communication skills to enhance health and avoid or reduce health risks. • IC Interpersonal Communication • Evaluates the student’s ability to use effective interpersonal communication skills with family, friends, and others (effective communication examples - use of “I” message, eye contact)

  28. IC – Interpersonal Communication • Resist pressures from peers to engage in unhealthy behaviors (resistance skills, clearly say “no,” walk away, etc.) • Communicate empathy and support • Manage interpersonal conflicts • Ask for assistance to enhance health (self and others)

  29. IC – Assessing the Student • Did the student show positive interaction between people? • Did the student show how both sides feel? • Did the student show respect? • Did the student use appropriate language?

  30. NHES 4: IC Continued • Did the student avoid put downs? • Did the student show some specific strategies (“I Statements” & refusals)

  31. Health Education Standard 5 • NHES 5: Students will demonstrate the ability to use decision-making skills to enhance health. • Assess personal health practices • Choose healthy alternatives • Consider consequences and overcome barriers to action • Measure accomplishment in meeting outcomes

  32. DM – Assessing the Student • Did the student show the steps for making a good decision? • Did the student show that he/she thought about many choices? • Did the student select a choice that was healthy for him/her?

  33. Health Education Standard 6 • NHES 6: Students will demonstrate the ability to use goal setting skills to enhance health. • Assess personal health practices and status • Make a plan and commitment for improving health • Identify desired health practices & outcomes

  34. GS – Goal Setting • Monitor progress in achieving desired health practices and outcomes • Measure accomplishment in meeting health outcomes • Did the student develop a plan to reach a specific goal? • Did the student make a plan that was complete? • Did the student document progress in achieving the goal?

  35. Health Education Standard 7 • NHES 7: Students will demonstrate the ability to practice health-enhancing behaviors and avoid or reduce health risks. • SM Self-Management • Focuses on actions or behaviors that help stay healthy & safe & take appropriate action if injured. • Demonstrate ability to reduce health risks & practice health enhancing practices in areas such as stress management, safety, first aid, exercise, nutrition & personal hygiene.

  36. SM – Assessment Criteria • Steps or health actions presented are: • Health-enhancing • Complete • In the correct order (first aid, use of safety belts) • Healthful personal behavior • Perform healthy practices • Take personal responsibility • Express intentions to engage in health-enhancing behaviors

  37. SM- Assessing the Student • Did the student show the correct steps to take in an emergency? • Did the student show actions that avoid risks and keep them safe? • Did the student show that he/she knows what habits are healthy? • Did the student show many ways to keep stress from making him/her unhealthy?

  40. Skills… • In order to determine if we are on the road to achieving the PIs & Standards – we assess the development of the skills • Foundation of standard-based education – assessment of skills, abilities and orientations

  41. 2006 NHES – 8 Standards • 8 Skills • CC Core Concepts • INF Analyzing Influences • AI Accessing Information • IC Interpersonal Communication • DM Decision Making • GS Goal Setting • SM Self Management • AV Advocacy

  42. Creating Skill-based Learning Experiences in Health Educationgetting started…..

  43. Developing Instructional Objectives Learner-centered instructional objectives (in the beginning…)

  44. Developing Objectives • Learner-centered Objectives • Focus on what key skill, attitude or knowledge that you hope the student will obtain, embrace, defend, obtain, develop by the time they leave your class that day. • Cognitive domain, attitude/value domain, skill/practice domain • What the student should be able to do after completing a learning experience • What is the point of having a class that day…..NOT what teaching ideas or strategies are you using that day • What is the objective for the learner, not for you the teacher….

  45. ABCCC • Audience • Behavior • Content/skill • Condition • Criteria*******

  46. ABCCC • A = The Audience (the student will – singular in nature) • B = Observable behavior reflective of the domain of emphasis • C = Content/Skill (skill or content area) • C = Condition under which it will occur • C = Criteria (measurable, observable, age appropriate, appropriate to the lesson, complex) • Needs to be (or imply) numerical or quantitative for assessment purposes

  47. Developing Objectives Continued • What the student should be able to do (skill) or know (content) or have (attitudes) after completing a period of instruction (a task, an activity, a lesson or a learning experience) • What is the point of having a class that day…..NOT focused on theteaching ideas or strategies you are using that day

  48. Sample Objective • With an open textbook, the student will write a balanced menu for one day that includes the correct number of servings from their personalized food guide pyramid (mypyramid.gov). • A = student • B = write • C (content) = nutrition/food guide pyramid • C (condition) = open textbook • C (criteria) = one day/correct number of servings

  49. ABCCC Sample • After listening to the speaker on self-protection, the student will develop a pamphlet on child abuse that identifies at least five signs and symptoms of physical abuse. • A = student • B = develop • Content = personal safety/self-protection • Condition = after listening to speaker • Criteria = five signs and symptoms

  50. Standard, Performance Indicator to Objective • NHES #1: Students will comprehend concepts related to health promotion & disease prevention to enhance health. • PI (3-5): Describe ways to prevent common childhood injuries & health problems. • ABCCC: Upon completion of the lesson, the student will describe three actions one could take to prevent the spread of a cold.
