HEALTH EDUCATION
locus of control
Educators can determine whether Readiness to learn is prompted internal or external stimuli in ascertaining the learner's previous life patterns of responsibility and assertiveness
cultural background
Educators knowledge about other cultures and sensitivity to behavioral differences between cultures are important so that the educator can avoid teaching in a opposition to cultural beliefs
past coping mechanism
Educators must explore coping mechanisms that Learners have been using to understand how they have dealt with previous problems
right brain/left brain and whole brain thinking
Roger Sperry and his research team establish that the brain operates as two brains, with each hemisphere having separate and complementary functions
emotional Readiness
Learners need to be emotionally ready to learn
extraversion
Operate comfortably and successfully by interacting with things external to themselves such as other people experiences and situations. they like to clarify talks and ideas through talking in doing. those person to operate more comfortably in an extrovert away think out loud.
4 types of readiness
Physical, Emotional, Experential and Knowledge readiness
Carl G. Jung
a Swiss psychiatrist develop a theory that explains personality similarities and differences by identifying attitudes of people along with opposite mental functions which are the ways people perceive or prefer to take in and make use of information from the world around them
Environmental effects
an environment conducive to learning helps to hold the learner's attention and stimulate interest in learning
Corpus callosum
Sperry and his colleagues discovered that Learners can use both sides of the brain because of a connector between the two hemisphere
field independent/field dependent perception
an extensive series of studies by Witkin, Oltman, Raskin, and Karp identified two styles of learning in the cognitive domain, which are based on the bipolar distribution of characteristics of how learner's process and structure information in their environment
gender
changes or beginning to be seen in the health seeking behavior of men and women as a result of the increase focused of people of all success and the healthier lifestyle and the blending of rolls in the home and workplace
brain reference indicator (BPI)
consists of a set of questions used to determine hemisphere functioning if reveals a general style of thought that the results in a consistent pattern of behavior in all areas of the individuals life
present knowledge base
how much someone already knows about the specific subject or how proficient the person is at performing a task is an important factor to determine before designing in implementing instruction
anxiety level
influences operations ability to perform at cognitive effective in cycle motor levels
sensing experience
they observe what is real, what is factual and what is happening. For these individuals seeing or experiencing is believing
internal locus of control
when patients are internally motivated to learn; they are ready to learn when they feel I need to know about something
learning and reading disabilities
which may be accompanied by low-level reading skills, are not necessarily indicative of an individual's intellectual abilities, but they do require Educators to use special or Innovative approaches instruction to sustain or bolster Readiness to learn
kinesthetic preferences
who absorb and retain information best when allowed to perform whole body movement or participate in simulated or real life experiences
extraversion-introversion
reflects an orientation to either the outside world of people and things or to the inner world of concepts and ideas
support system
numbers of the patient whi are available to assist with Self care activities at home should be present during at least some of the teaching sessions so that they can learn how to help the patient is the needs arises
field independent person
perceive items as separate or differentiated from the surrounding field they have internalized frames of reference such that they experience themselves as separate or differentiated from others and environment. They are less sensitive to social cues, are not affected by criticism, favor an active participant roll, and are eager to test their ideas or opinions in a group.
knowledge readiness
present knowledge base cognitive ability learning disabilities learning styles
physical elements
search us perception strength, intake, time of day and mobility, which are also biological in nature and related away learner's function physically
environmental elements

emotional elements
such as motivation, persistence, responsibility, and structure, -which are developmental and emerge overtime as an outgrowth of experiences that have happened at home, school, play or work
sociological pattern
such as the desire to work alone or in groups, or a combination of this to approaches,-which are thought to be social culturally based
psychological elements
such as the way learner's process and react to information, -which are also biological in nature
intuition experiences
tend to read between the lines, focus on meaning, and attend what might be. Those with this preferences view the world through possibilities and relationships and are tuned into subtleties of body language and tones of voice. This kind of perception leave them to examine problems and issues in creative and original ways.
introversion
the internal world of their minds hearts and souls. They like to brew over thoughts and actions, reflecting on them until they become more personally meaningful. Those persons who operate more comfortably in a way and are often thoughtful, reflective, and slow to act because they need time to translate internal thoughts to the external world. Their thoughts are well formulated before they are willing to share with them to others.
reachable moment

Timing
the point at which teaching should take place - is very important
feeling preference
the produce decision-making takes place through a subjective perceptive empathetic and emotional perspective individuals who prefer this search for the effect of a decision on themselves and others
evening learner
their ability to concentrate and focus energies is great test at the end of the day
early morning learner's
their ability to concentrate and focus energy on learning is high in the early hours of the day but wanes as the day progresses
afternoon learner's
there concentration and energy are highest in the mid-to-late afternoon when performance is at its peak
late morning learner's
there concentration and energy curve peaks around noon time when their ability to perform is at its height
external Locust of control
they are externally motivated - then someone other than themselves most encouraged learner to want to know something
Dunn and Dunn learning styles
a user-friendly model that would assist educators in identifying characteristics that allow individuals to learn in different ways
learning styles
a variety of preferred styles of learning exist and assessing how someone learns best and likes to learn help the educator to select appropriate teaching approaches; refers to the ways in which and conditions under which learner's most efficiency in most effectively perceive process store and recall what are attempting to learn
measures of ability
ability to perform a task that requires fine or gross motor movements, sensory aquity adequate strength, flexibility, coordination and endurance.
thinking type
analyze information later situations and people and make decision based on logic they are careful and slow in the analysis of the date because accuracy and thoroughness are important to them
emotional readiness
anxiety level support system motivation risk taking behavior frame of mind developmental stage
determining learning styles
are observations, interviews and administration of learning style instruments
readiness to learn
can be defined as the time when the learner demonstrates an interest in learning
field dependent person
dare perception is influenced by or immersed in the surrounding field are more externally focus and as such are so socially oriented, more aware of social cues, able to review their feelings, and armor dependent on address for reinforcement. They have a need for extrinsic motivation and externally defined objectives and learn better if the material has a social contexts. They are more easily affected by criticism; take a passive, spectator roll; and changed their opinions in the face of peer pressure
sensing-intuition
describes perception as coming directly to the five senses or indirectly by way of the unconscious. This pair of opposite preferences explains how people understand what is experience
teachable moment
each task associated with human development produces a peak time for Readiness to learn known as a
motivation
emotional Readiness is strongly associated with. This it is a willingness to take action.
Roger Sperry and his research team
establish that the brain operates as two brains, with each hemisphere having separate and complementary functions
Rita Dunn and Kenneth Dunn
established the Dunn and Dunn's learning styles
thinking-feeling

frame of mind
it involves concern about the here and now versus the future. If survival is a primary concern Readiness to learn will be focused on the present to meet basic human needs.
fear
it is a major contributor to anxiety and therefore negatively affect Readiness to learn in any of the learning domains
language
it is also a part of culture and many prove to be a significant obstacle to learning if the educator and the learner do not speak the same communication tool
risk taking Behavior
it is intrinsic in the activities people perform daily. Many activities are done without thinking about the outcome
Experential readiness
level of aspiration past coping mechanisms cultural background locus of control
Physical Readiness
measures of ability complexity of task environmental effects health status gender, are all parts of?
health status
the amount of energy available and the individuals present comfort level are factors of significantly influence that individuals readiness to learn
cognitive ability
the extent to which information can be processed is indicative of the learner's capabilities
productivity environmental preference survey
this instrument yields information concerned with the patterns through which learning occurs but does not assess the finer aspects of an individual's skills, such as the ability to outline procedures, and to organize, clarify or analyze new material
Experiential Readiness
this refers to the learner's past experiences with learning and includes four elements
Tactile preferences
those that learn best when they can underline as they read, take notes when they listen, and otherwise keep their hands busy
auditory preferences
those that learn best while listening to verbal instructions
visual preferences
those that learn best while reading or observation
group embedded figures test
to measure field Independence/ dependents -- that is how a person's perception of an item is influenced by the context in which it appears
left hemisphere
was found to be the vocal and analytical side which is used for verbalization in for reality- based and logical thinking
