Behavioural sciences explore the cognitive processes within organisms and the behavioural interactions between organisms in the natural world. It involves the systematic analysis and investigation of human and animal behavior through the study of the past, controlled and naturalistic observation of the present, and disciplined scientific experimentation and modeling. It attempts to accomplish legitimate, objective conclusions through rigorous formulations and observation.[1] Examples of behavioral sciences include psychology, psychobiology, anthropology, and cognitive science. Generally, behavior science deals primarily with human action and often seeks to generalize about human behavior as it relates to society

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. Health Education
• Definition
• Aims & objectives
• Principles
• Concept of health education
• Scope of health education
• Approach to health education
• Role of nurse
3. DEFINITION
Health education is comprising of consciously constructed oppurtunities for learning, involving some form of communication
designed to improve health literacy including improving knowledge & developing life skills which are conductive to individual &
community health
-WHO
Health education is a process that informs, motivates, and helps people to adopt and maintain healthy practices and lifestyles,
advocates environmental changes as needed to facilitate this goal and conducts professional training and research to the same end.
-National Conference On Preventive Medicine
"The process by which individuals and groups of people learn to behave in a manner conducive to the promotion, maintenance or
restoration of health
-
--John M Last
4. AIMS & OBJECTIVES
1. To encourage people to adopt and sustain health promoting lifestyle and
practices;
2. To promote the proper use of health services available to them
3. To arouse interest, provide new knowledge, improve skills and change
attitudes in making rational decisions to solve their own problems
4. To stimulate individual and community self-reliance and participation to
achieve health development through individual and community involvement
at every step from identifying problems to solving them.
6. SCOPE OF HEALTH EDUCATION
1. Human biology
2. Nutrition
3. Hygiene
4. Family health
5. Disease prevention & control
6. Mental health
7. Prevention of accidents
8. Use of health services
7. SCOPE OF HEALTH EDUCATION
1. HUMAN BIOLOGY
• Understanding health, demands an understanding of the human biology
• Reproduction biology is another area of current interest
• The best place to teach human biology is the school.
• It is only the school, through its sequential health curriculum, which can provide continuous in-depth learning experiences for millions of
students.
• Provision of information and advice on human biology and hygiene is vital for each new generation.
2. NUTRITION
• Aim of nutrition education is to guide people to choose optimum and balanced diets, remove prejudices and promote good dietary habits
• Nutritional problems such as ignorance about the value of breast feeding beyond the first year of life, misconceptions about proper
weaning, ignorance of the appropriateness of certain diets for infants and pregnant women, traditional food allocation pattern within the
families, etc. can be best solved by nutrition education.
• The link between dietary habits and certain chronic diseases of middle age such as obesity, diabetes and cardio-vascular diseases has been
established recently
• Nutrition education is a major intervention for the prevention of malnutrition, promotion of health and improving the quality of life.
8. 3. HYGIENE
• Has two aspects - PERSONAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL.
• Aim of PERSONAL HYGIENE is to promote standards of personal cleanliness within the setting of the condition where people
live. Personal hygiene includes bathing, clothing, washing hands after toilet; care of nails, feet and teeth; spitting, coughing,
sneezing, personal appearance and inculcation of clean habits in the young.
• Training in personal hygiene should begin at a very early age and must be carried through school age.
• ENVIRONMENTAL HYGIENE has two aspects domestic and community.
• Domestic hygiene ecomprises that of the home, use of soap, need for fresh air, light and ventilation; hygienic storage of foods;
hygienic disposal of wastes, need to avoid pests, rats, mice and insects. Improvement of environmental health is a major concern
of many governments and related agencies throughout the world.
• In developing countries, the emphasis is on the improvement of basic sanitary services solid and liquid wastes, vector control,
food sanitation and housing which are fundamental to health
• Environmental sanitation programme should include health education
4. FAMILY HEALTH
The family is the first defence, as well as the chief reliance for the well-being of its members.
• Health largely depends on the family's social and physical environment and its lifestyle and behaviour.
• The role of the family in health promotion and in prevention of disease, early diagnosis and care of the sick is of crucial
importance.
• One of the main tasks of health education is to promote the family's self-reliance, especially regarding the family's responsibilities
in childbearing, child rearing, self-care and in influencing their children adopt a healthy lifestyle.
9. 5. DISEASE PREVENTION AND CONTROL
• Drugs alone will not solve health problems without health education, a person may fall sick again and again from the same
disease.
• Education of the people about the prevention and control of locally endemic diseases is the first of eight essential
activities in primary health care.
• Several public health programmes are in operation on a national scale to eradicate diseases such as malaria, tuberculosis,
leprosy, filaria, goitre, etc.
• The recent experience of malaria eradication has indicated that anti malarial spray with insecticides cannot solve the
problem without health education.
6. MENTAL HEALTH
• Mental health problems occur everywhere.
• The aim of education in mental health is to help people to keep mentally healthy and to prevent a mental breakdown
• People should enjoy their relationships with others and learn to live and work without mental breakdown.
• There are certain special situations when mental health is of great importance mother after child birth; child at entry into
school for the first time, school child entering the secondary school, decision about a future career, starting a new family
and at the time of widowhood
• Health workers should help people achieve mental health by showing sympathy, understanding and by social contact.
10. 7. PREVENTION OF ACCIDENTS
• Accidents occur in three main areas: the home, road and the place of work.
• Safety education should be directed to these areas.
• It should be the concern of the engineering department and also the responsibility of the police department to enforce rules of road safety.
• Accidents Occur in workshops, factories, railways and mines.
• Management must provide a safe environment and promote general order and cleanliness.
• There should be a place for everything, and everything should be in its place in the factory, in the home, and in the office.
• The predominant factor in accidents is carelessness and the problem can be tackled through health education.
8. USE OF HEALTH SERVICES
• Many people particularly in rural areas do not know what health services are available in their community, and many more do not know
what signs to look for that indicate a visit to the doctor is necessary.
• There is a communication gap between the public and the state health administration in the form of "feedback" for further improvement of
health services.
• One of the declared aims of health education is to inform the people about the health services that are available in the community and how
they can utilize them (e.g., screening programmes, immunization, family planning services etc. and use the health care resources.
11. CONCEPT OF CHANGING HE

CONCEPTS
12. APPROACHES TO HEALTH EDUCATION
• 1. REGULATORY APPROACH (MANAGED PREVENTION)
• Any governmental intervention, direct or indirect, designed to alter human behaviour.
• Promulgated by the State by a variety of administrative agencies in the forms ranging from prohibition to imprisonment.
• Regulatory approach seeks change in health behaviour and improvement in health through a variety of external control or laws
Eg: The Child Marriage Restraint Act in India and the use of compulsory seat belts in the western countries.
• Legislative approach is the simplest and quickest way to improve health or bring about desired changes in society, but there are
also important failures of laws, e.g., prohibition of alcohol.
• Reasons for the failure ;
- the cause of disease (medical or social) cannot be eradicated by legislation,
-at the most the government can make laws to prevent a person spreading disease in his community Eg: vaccination in an
emergency.
-Secondly in areas involving personal choice
(e.g., diet, exercise, smoking) no government can pass legislation to force people to eat a balanced diet or not to smoke.
13. 2. Service approach
• This approach was tried by the Basic Health Services in 1960's.
• Aimed at providing all the health services needed the people at their door steps on the
assumption that people would use them to improve their own health.
• This by approach proved a failure because it was not based on the felt-needs of the
people.
• For example, when water-seal latrines were provided by the government, free of cost,
many people in the rural areas did not make use of them because it was not their habit
to use latrines.
• The people will not accept a programme or service, even if it is offered free of cost,
unless it is based on their felt-needs.
14. 3. Health education approach
• If the necessary behaviour changes are to take place, people must be
educated through planned learning experiences what to do, and be
informed, educated and encouraged to make their own choice for a
healthy life.
• This approach is consistent with democratic philosophy which does not
"order" the individual.
• The mass media and social organizations must be mobilized to help
introduce new attitudes and new habits without conflicting with the
masses and the collective reaction to particular change.
15. 4. Primary health care approach
• This is a radically new approach starting from the people with their full
participation and active involvement in the planning and delivery of health
services based on principals of primary health care, viz. community
involvement and intersectoral coordination.
• Objective : To help individuals to become self-reliant in matters of health.
• People are encouraged to receive the necessary guidance from health care
providers in identifying their health problems and finding workable
solutions.
