Care Y12 cover work Mon 31 Jan 2011
Task 1:
For M1 ensure you have included some aspects of the following:
behaviourist, eg understanding challenging behaviour, changing/shaping behaviour;
social learning, eg promotion of anti-discriminatory behaviours and practices, use of positive role models in health education campaigns;
psychodynamic, eg understanding challenging behaviour, understanding and managing anxiety;
humanistic, eg empathy, understanding, respecting other individuals, active listening, non-judgemental approach;
cognitive, eg supporting individuals with learning difficulties, supporting individuals with emotional problems/depression/ post traumatic stress disorder;
biological, eg understanding developmental norms, understanding genetic predisposition to certain illnesses or health-related behaviours, understanding the effects of shift work on individuals
DO NOT just replicate the examples given here, use this to develop your own examples and arguments in favour of and against different psychological perspectives.
Task 2:
Prep for M2
Select one psychological approach you used in P2 and one from P3 to develop in greater detail.
Research these 2 perspectives in terms of the advice they would give to a local health and social care need, for example the need for a bigger teen talk centre in our school to deal with drug or alcohol use among teens and the related issues this causes in family/social life
Spend the time today gaining examples of recent health and social care initiatives that deal with your chosen issue. Ie; recent campaigns and their methods.
Interrogate the psychological perspectives you have chosen in terms of advising the new teen talk centre on methods of engagement with the young people.
Ie: what would the psychologists say would be effective.
NB: it is best if your chosen perspectives for M2 are different as this helps in D1.
You need to bring your research to lesson next Monday and should have M1 finished by then. Feel free to email any M1 drafts if you wish.
Task sheet for Unit 8 given out and time spent checking quality of P1 2 and 3 meets the required level.
Next week need a presentation to set for Chloe, Joanne and Pramila who were absent during the last one.
Also be time to move on to the M1 aspect which assesses the psychological approaches used in our ‘In a Nutshell guides’

Homework this week is to complete an information leaflet about energy and how it is used in your body.
Use the Unit 5 criteria to guide the amount of detail you need to include as well as keywords.
You must look at types of energy, how it is used in the body, what the bi-products of using energy are…
So far you should have:
1. A poster of structure and function of cells for 7 yr olds
2. A presentation with notes on a body system
3. An evaluation of your discussion about tissue types
You may also wish to add to these unit elements with your glossary and fact sheets.
HWK: Read the section in the text book about the purpose of energy in your body.
HOMEWORK
1) Create a glossary of keywords/terms for the types of body tissue. make sure you include epithelial, connective, muscle and nervous tissues.
