Health education

art that are important in education. Such as, drawing, painting, dancing, poetry, plays and music, just to name a few. Each kind of art has its own individual benefits, but they also all have common ones as well. Unfortunately, the arts are a subject in school that doesn’t gain much credit. Most schools merely provide art classes because of state requirements. This is a serious issue, therefore, I argue, in order to increase young brain development, improve mental health and academic…

50 million people in the United States. This nation wide issue affects every person in a family and can have the hardest effect on children and their education. For decades poverty's impact on education has been a controversial subject. Many people believe that poverty places no hindrances on a child's education because they feel the child’s education depends solely on their capabilities. However, impoverished children are automatically at a disadvantage due to the fact that they have less…

The main point of this movie is to teach us about obesity and what it can do to our bodies. Fed Up focuses on the causes of obesity in the United States and shows that the large quantities of sugar in processed foods are an overlooked problem. The main culprit in Fed Up would be the food industry removing the fat and replacing it with sugar. This has become such a problem recently because more children and younger adults are having serious problems like strokes and heart attacks. It is also…

Reflective writing as a genre allows for a combination of personal reflection and critical thinking all intertwined into one. I turned my reflection essay into a new reflection that focused on a different level of the education system that would allow for me to reflect on my first semester of college to back up my allegations against the school system. When attempting to revise my essay in a new way I reread my old one and found an interesting theme screaming out of the paper. It was saying,…

Even Though, both the stakeholders for this matter are different on their viewpoints, they are both arguing for a better education system for the future generation. The ETD groups talk about a more tactile way of learning. Whereas, the students who support the use of e-books claims that it helps with better access to books and resources. The educational institutions who supports…

Today in education research from El Nokali, Bachman, and Votruba-Drzalc (2010) shows there is a constant struggle in the classroom for parental involvement into a child 's educational experience. Many students may feel that their parents don 't care about their success or failures in the classroom, that their homework is a burden to their parents if they ask them for help, or they are just being completely shut out by their parents completely when it comes to their education. On the other hand,…

Growing up in poverty doesn’t mean people are short only on money. Those in poverty are exposed to abuse, low academic achievements and education, lack of self-esteem, and an uncertain future. The book The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie showcases a Native American teenager, Junior, coming to the realization that his only hopes of attaining a better life, is to leave his own back on the reservation. His decisions lead him to attend a school out of town, with a…

High school start times may vary depending on one’s location and lifestyle. The National Center for Education Statistics reports that in America, most range from anywhere between 7:00 to 9:30 AM. In San Diego, the average start time is 7:30 AM according to a study conducted by KPBS. These early start times take quite a toll on teens, both mentally and physically. Some extreme results of early start times may include conditions such as obesity and depression. San Diego teens are at a large risk…

will be given the same amount, whether it be the amount of taxes they must pay, their amount of health coverage, etcetera. In theory, this seems very fair, but in reality it would only be fair of all parties started at the same place. On the other hand, equity aims to give each party the amount that they need to get at the same level. This too causes strife because, for example, the poor may get free health care and food stamps while the wealthy get no advantages. With the conflicts of equality…

In the Home Health setting in which I work there is currently minimal technology in use. The addition of smart phones or tablets that would allow video education as an adjunct to the current teaching methods which consist of verbal edification and written handouts, would provide supplementary teaching methods for the adult learner. Furthermore, adult patients with limited literacy will benefit from the ability to visualize information (Green, Gonzaga, Cohen, & Spagnoletti, 2014). Patients who…
