The subject I choice is: Nonverbal Communication (NV) Importance of NV

Student Example DO NOT Copy

My choice of topic for this group presentation is nonverbal communication, guiding your mind to types of communication that I can use to help me communicate with people and future career goals. This topic is important for close relationships because it can be used to express people’s feelings, knowing how they feel in a situation, while communicating with them. In a relationship, nonverbal communication is important to notice facial expressions and body language to know what’s wrong with your partner, and emotionally show that they care by hugging and comforting them. In a friendship, nonverbal communication is important because listening to them when they are expressing their feelings and being supported. There is a huge negative part of nonverbal communication when you are trying to talk to someone, and they are not listening to you forced on other things like a phone or being distracted, which is rude when you are opening up to someone. One challenge in nonverbal communication is that someone misunderstands you because they don’t know how you’re feeling and ignores the fact that you are going through something. This happens a lot in relationships when your partner is ignoring what you’re going through and is forced on the phone or doing other things, which makes it hard in a relationship. Also, when someone is not making eye contact with you when you are speaking, it’s clear they are not interested in what you are saying, which makes you feel unheard. There shows that someone does not care about what you’re saying, which means there is no communication happening. The solution to this problem is nonverbal communication used in a good way by making people feel heard when they are talking, and not ignoring them or distracting yourself from them.

Another Student Example DO NOT Copy

As my topic for the group presentation, I picked non-verbal communication in relationships, including the link to the psychological side, and less direct aspects of communication, such as the intuitive and dream sides of relationships. My choice was inspired by my own realization that there are many cases of communication in life that do not involve using words. Sometimes the things that matter the most in our lives remain unspoken. In terms of friends, relatives, relations, or even workplace communication, people may pay more attention to how things are done rather than what is being communicated. As in most cases, I myself would often withdraw from people because of not being emotionally available to them, nd portraying the attitude that I simply do not care because all I want is space and comfort. However, emotions usually leave reality behind and enter our dream worlds or intuitive mind. On occasions, my emotions would not even find themselves staying confined within the borders of reality and would enter my dream worlds or intuit my future actions. The second situation is misreading of non-verbal and internal cues in times of confusion regarding one’s emotions or identity. Individuals may become trapped in their own selves or in a vicious circle of thoughts, or simply fail to understand their own emotions. As suggested by Adler et al., building self-awareness and validating one’s perceptions through discussion might work. In order to escape from these types of situations, an individual needs to take a pause, validate his or her observations, and make assumptions based on what he or she observed. Nonetheless, yet another aspect connected with this difficulty is emotional imbalance between partners who are trying to help each other improve psychologically and emotionally. At the moment when one person strives to assist the other, he/she might be struggling with his/her own problems that remain unnoticed by the other party. This results in an inability to continue doing it because the level of one’s emotional resources decreases under the influence of ongoing negative emotions and the inability to motivate oneself. This could inadvertently create a sense of distance, misunderstanding, and the gradual erosion of their relationship. It is also lonely when the ones whom you depend on to be supportive are not around to offer that same level of support, placing an added emotional burden when the going gets tough. Sometimes, in spite of being loved and cared for, the relationships simply fade away, not because there is any lack of care but because both individuals are fighting battles within themselves, leaving them with nothing to offer each other.

Part 3

Project Step 4: Health Problem Intervention.

Project Step4Health Problem Intervention

Overview

The semester long project is designed to help integrate the concepts in each module. Last module, you found the determinants of your health problem. This week, you will use your epidemiologic research about the distribution and determinants of your health problem.

This week the topic is: Designing a simple intervention for your chosen health problem paying specific attention to targeting it to your population where they live, work and play.

Chalkboard with the word intervention

Now for the fun part! Design an intervention that addresses the BEHAVIOR CHANGE you need to address your problem.

Key Takeaways:

Make sure to address the population and that the intervention is focused to them.

You MUST use the data you collected!

You MUST address the determinants you found. For example, if you learned your problem is more common in urban women, make sure your campaign is focused to them.

DO NOT have an intervention that is huge. DO NOT offer free medical care, that is NOT public health.

Instead, a simple advertising or awareness campaign. A simple community screening program. A simple fitness group. A simple way to persuade the community to vote for your policy.

Include what the incentive is for people to come.

Practical and Not So Practical Examples

Check these out to do your best. These ideas are big on heart but not sustainable or practical. See how to to adapt them to make feasible ideas and easier homework! Click to see good grade examples and “try again” examples! HINT: I have ideas here you can use. Just adjust it to meet your population where they live, work and play.

Special Details for the Intervention Step

Here is some help:

1.Think about education alone programs. Does anyone really listen to just education? I could tell you all to go for a run tomorrow because it is good for you and most of you wont, right? How are you getting these people to even log on to or attend these educational programs? We learned so much this week on motivation and culture so put it in your work. Do not just do a class or an app. Those already exist. Incentivize and MOTIVATE your people!!

be creative sign

2.You cant have interventions just to improve MEDICAL care or give free medical care. Public health is the disaster that does not happen! We want to stop behaviors, we want to change behaviors, not treat disease. We must motivate.

3.Consider SDoH of your populations-use Cultural Humility!!. Low SDoH populations may not log into the web to search a topic. They may not use social media. We have to capture and engage our audience a little more where they live, work and play. If you have an ethnic group or race, think of how you can use their patterns and culture to impact change. Low SES women? How about ads and links in WIC payments pages with a lottery to win a box of diapers? Is your group children? Kids need FUN! Have some incentive in there!

4.Do not pitch lots of ideas. I’d rather see one well coordinated idea. How about getting an egg company (or a place like McDonalds) to team up with a helmet company to do head trauma awareness and give discounts on helmets as incentive? Keep it simple. Fitness? How about a fun run? Obestity? Dont do a class on healthy food. That is boring. Have cooking classes and giveaway food at the end!

5.Motivate!!!! Make your interventions to one that would motivate YOU or your family. Convincing kids to stay in school with a lecture-BORING. Making a fun poster that shows how much more money you make with every year of school is more likely to motivate a teen than a lecture. Motivation can be free- it can just be empowering.

  1. Your program MUST consider your determinants and target a population that you are focusing on. The key here is ALL research should all relate! Dont tell me the problem is urban, black males and have a class. It Wont be effective and they wont go (this is true for any race teen!)! Or if it is middle age women with diabetes, dont have a social media campaign. You MUST show me you are considering what you learned about your problem. Find what may interest your Population. Meet them where they live, work and play.
