Write a your Personal Health Interest Reflection Paper.
Health education and promotion typically come from professionals (i.e., health education specialists) who are passionate about what they do and the potential impact they could make on someone’s life. During this course, you will be asked to select a health topic and plan a program for it. But before you begin this journey, you need to describe what you are passionate about.
Purpose: One of the many Health Educator’s responsibilities involves program planning, implementation, and evaluation; and as such, need to be well versed in the process. “Planning an effective program is more difficult than implementing it”. (McKenzie, Neiger, & Thackeray, 2017, p. 10). Individuals who are experienced in planning health promotion programs are an asset to the organization where they will work, and the community they will serve.
Content/Subject: Your paper will present a summary of 1-3 health topics you find interesting and why. Also, describe what you hope to achieve in this course and how it might help you in the future. This reflection paper will be the only paper that you will write in first person and for which source notes are not required.
