Answer 1

It was my health education assignment in my Community posting . The topic of discussion was Tuberculosis . I used both role paly and interpersonal communication skills to teach the community regarding TB .

# Summary of the teaching plan is :-

Tuberculosis is a communicable disease which is spread by air borne transmission method . It's more prevalent among people whose socioeconomic status is below poverty , who lives in slums , have less accessibility to healthcare services etc . It is a preventable disease if the population take health promotion , disease prevention steps against it .

# Epidemiological rationale for topic is India is the country with the highest burden of TB. The World Health Organisation (WHO) TB statistics for India for 2016 give an estimated incidence figure of 2.79 million cases of TB for India. The TB incidence is the number of new cases of active TB disease during a certain time period

#. Evaluation of teaching excellence was done by by having an open conversation and feedback session with the community people about their understanding and a questionnaire session was used to evaluate their learning .

#. The community was happy and satisfactory with the teaching plan as it was in simple terms and was well explained with the help of role play and an interactive session was used which helped the people to exprey their concerns and clear their doubts .
