Teaching Experience and Teaching Plan

Question: Describe the teaching experience and discuss your observations? Answer: Teaching plan This essay is having a brief discussion of the teaching plan which I planned for adult and elderly community and the planning for primary prevention and health promotion of depression in the local community. The teaching plan for adult and elderly community which I adapted is as - Initial step was to explain the aim, objective to elderly and adult people of this teaching so that they are motivated. Try to build anefficient relation with the all adult and elderly community members which will help to start the session easily. Analyse their background, strength and weakness before starting the teaching session. Before starting the main session of teaching, a small induction session was introduced to make them aware of the whole process. As per their requirements, skills, weakness, strength plan a specific learning activity(Dixon). The teaching plan which I decided for primary prevention and health promotion of depression people are different. For teaching plan for primary prevention of depression people is Analyse the reason behind depression. After analysing the reason I planned to have a face to face conversation so that can know about them properly i.e. their about their life and other activities. Now I started deciding the solution as per their problem, the reason of depression and the effect of their problem on their present society(George and Davis-wiley). Before implementation of solution on the person I analysed it result on society and surroundings of the person. Finally the implementation of the solution was done to resolve the problem(Sauerteig). The teaching plan for health promotion of depression community members is I planned to build a healthy public policy by which public will we aware of depression and will help them to communicate with each other. Tried developing a supportive and healthy environment around them so that they feel comfortable. Planned activities which help in motivating and developing their skills. Epidemiologic study of teaching plan The teaching plan can be explained using the epidemiological triangle. This model has three corners as A Host Is the person who is suffering from depression. An Agent The reason or the cause behind their depression. Environment Are the external factors which affect them like their surrounding and society. Figure1: Epidemiologic triangle Evaluating teaching experience The evaluation of teaching experience I did by some methods Self-monitoring the way of teaching. Feedback of the students by giving them questionnaire and interview. Feedback from analysis done by experts of my teaching recording and audio(Weintraub). Community response to teaching Initially the adult and elderly community people were not convinced from the plan of teaching so they refused to attend the classes. Their refusal of session and interaction shows their weakness which they didnt want to improve.The people from depression community were not interested in attending the session due to the fear from explore in society. The main reason behind their refusal of session was society in which they live. The people suffering from depression were considered as untouchability which demotivated them. Areas of strengths and improvement Area of strengths- Creativity i.e. the new ways for motivating them to attend sessions. Kindness Discipline Optimistic thinking Fairness Curiosity to learn and make other learn new things and etc. Area of improvement- Increase the level of self-control. Learn more innovative ways of teaching.
