The Health Belief Model (HBM) is a psychological model which attempts to explain how individuals make health-related decisions. It suggests that people are more likely to engage in healthy behaviors when they perceive certain elements such as the severity of a disease or threat, personal susceptibility, and potential benefits from engaging with preventive measures (Rosenstock et al., 1988). This theory also holds that culture can have an impact on these beliefs through its influence on individual values and norms.
For instance, one’s cultural background may determine whether they prioritize disease prevention over curative care. In some cultures it is common to focus on long-term wellness rather than immediate symptom relief; thus people may be more willing to invest time & resources into preventing illnesses in the first place. On the other hand some cultures may place greater emphasis on treating existing conditions rather than actively trying to prevent them – this might lead individuals to engage less with preventive care strategies as a result.
Culture can also dictate how much weight someone gives particular cues related to health threats. For example, if a person belongs to a community where information sharing is commonplace then they will be exposed to more messages warning about potential health risks which could shape their attitudes towards engaging in recommended practices (Krugman & Tingling-Clemmons 2019). Similarly, there are cultures where traditional remedies are used for minor ailments which could lead people away from seeking professional medical advice under certain circumstances.
Overall then, whilst the HPA recognizes that individual judgement plays an important role in determining behavior it highlights how culture can shape our relationship with healthcare. By understanding these dynamics we can gain valuable insights into different perspectives around health management which can aid us in designing effective interventions going forward.
embed literacy into our lessons not only so students can access the curriculum but apply this knowledge to everyday tasks too. Likewise with being able to count change, if students cannot master the basic literacy skills they may not be able to read signs, fill in forms correctly or even read books to support their own child’s learning later in life.
In my current school, the assessment policy states that ‘all teachers have a role to play in assessing and developing literacy’ (Assessment policy, p.5 2012) which echoes the National Curriculum that fluency in the English language is required to be successful in all subjects (DfE, 2014, p.10). Moreover, in Computer Science there is a lot of key technical terminology students are required to know and react too accordingly and some of these words can be quite difficult. Students should be introduced to language that is relevant to the subject (DfE, 2013, p.11). Throughout the lessons, I need to ensure that I am using these terms consistently to introduce students to them but also to get the students into the habit of using their key terms in verbal and non-verbal responses.
Python is its own language and has its own syntax for programs to execute correctly; likewise in the English language there are correct ways to construct sentences. These are the rules we all follow. Python makes use of grammar students use in every subject, for example brackets and speech marks and often students fall short because they forget that these come in pairs, therefore syntax errors would appear in their work and their programs would not work. Grammar and spellings are just as important in a programming language as well as any other language.
Understanding the importance for numeracy and literacy integration can help to become more inclusive in the classroom. Students must be able to access the lesson content. Florian (2005) describes inclusion as ‘not a denial of individual difference, but an accommodation of it within the structures and processes that are available to all learners’ along with Tomlinson (1997) who says that it is ‘matching the resources we have to the learning styles and educational needs of the students.’ Inclusion is not just about those students with Special Ed
