Discussion Question 1
This area provides you an opportunity to reflect on what you have learned, at this point of time, and what concepts you still need further exploration on.
Submit your post by Wednesday 11:59 pm MT and include a short summary of what you have learned (2-3 sentences) and 1 or 2 questions related to concepts that are still unclear.
Faculty will review this discussion and address common questions in the forum or during synchronous time
You are encouraged to interact with other students and reply to their posts and questions.
This checkpoint will also serve as a weekly attendance tracker………….
What I learn so far on question one…………….This reflective activity will help you transfer the things you’ve learned into long-term memory. You are encouraged to continue reviewing this information as you continue learning to promote content mastery and faster retrieval of information for application.
This week, you learned about historical underpinnings of nursing, defining health, the levels of prevention in populations, became familiar with the United States efforts to monitor and promote the health of citizens, and reviewed the costs related to health in our society.
Connecting this Week to Previous Learning
Following class, review your notes and the key concepts of Professional Identity, Health Promotion, and Illness Prevention.
Compare what you learned this week to your prior course(s). What did you learn before that you can connect to this week’s concepts? For example, you learned about the levels of prevention this week and that immunizations are part of primary prevention. What did you learn about immunity in your prior science courses? How can you apply that to this week’s concept of health promotion and exemplar levels of prevention?
