Describe how individual learning styles affect the degree to which a learner can understand or perform educational activities. Discuss the importance of an educator identifying individual learning styles and preferences when working with learners.

Learning styles represent the different approaches to learning based on preferences, weaknesses, and strengths. For learners to best achieve the desired educational outcome, learning styles must be considered when creating a plan. Complete “The VARK Questionnaire,”( http://vark-learn.com/the-vark-questionnaire/ ) located on the VARK website, and then complete the following:

  1. Click “OK” to receive your questionnaire scores.
  2. Once you have determined your preferred learning style, review the corresponding link to view your learning preference.
  3. Review the other learning styles: visual, aural, read/write, kinesthetic, and multimodal (listed on the VARK Questionnaire Results page).
  4. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
  5. Examine how awareness of learning styles has influenced your perceptions of teaching and learning.

In a paper (750‐1,000 words), summarize your analysis of this exercise and discuss the overall value of learning styles. Include the following:

  1. Provide a summary of your learning style according the VARK questionnaire.
  2. Describe your preferred learning strategies. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
  3. Describe how individual learning styles affect the degree to which a learner can understand or perform educational activities. Discuss the importance of an educator identifying individual learning styles and preferences when working with learners.
  4. Discuss why understanding the learning styles of individuals participating in health promotion is important to achieving the desired outcome. How do learning styles ultimately affect the possibility for a behavioral change? How would different learning styles be accommodated in health promotion?

“In acute care hospitals (patient population), how does having a rapid response team (intervention) compared with not having a response team (comparison) affect the number of cardiac arrests (outcome) during a three-month period (time)?”

1) Clinical Question – Formulate a clinical question using the PICOT format.

P: Patient Population
I: Intervention or area on Interest
C: Comparison intervention or group
O: Outcome
T: Time
Ex: “In acute care hospitals (patient population), how does having a rapid response team (intervention) compared with not having a response team (comparison) affect the number of cardiac arrests (outcome) during a three-month period (time)?”

2) For this project Write a 2-3 page APA paper (not including title page and the reference page) that describes the clinical problem and the following:

  • Reason for choosing this topic
  • The PICOT question
  • Possible integration of the evidenced that you found in      clinical practice
  • Methods to evaluate the effectiveness of implementation

Articulate your understanding of the Guidance and how it impacts clinical trial operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Rather than wait until the end of the semester, teacher and I are offering the following opportunity to earn extra credit. We are aware of the challenges many of you are facing, and know the importance you put on achieving a high grade in your academic endeavors.

As many of you are aware, the FDA released a COVID-19 Guidance Document on 3/17/20 that not only acknowledges the challenges faced by staff, PIs and IRBs but most importantly the participants in our clinical trials. It is not common for the FDA to release a guidance document without first requesting public feedback; however, as we all know these are not normal circumstances.

For an extra 50 points, your assignment is to draft a 2-3 page paper which will describe actions that a site, sponsor, (including the monitoring plan) and IRB, if applicable may take to mitigate risks, and to ensure patient safety in the following real-life scenario.

Background: Focus on a clinical study in which non-cancer participants had blood samples taken with the goal to detect cancer. Once the participant is diagnosed with cancer, they are required to return to the clinic to have additional samples taken before they begin treatment for their cancer. Please consider this is not a treatment study but a diagnostic trial.

Review the guidance document and formulate what restrictions as a sponsor you would implement for the participants, the monitors and the monitoring plan, any restrictions a site may impose to participants, and also include the role of the IRBs, if applicable. And why you are implementing the restrictions.

As you read the Guidance document keep in mind its focus on patient safety in light of  COVID-19, and societal mandates in place, i.e., social distancing and shelter in place.

You do not have to use APA formatting; however, please include a background or introductory paragraph, describe the actions to be taken per role (sponsor, site and IRB, if applicable), and include a closing statement or paragraph.

You will be graded on organization, grammar, and evidence of how well you articulate your understanding of the Guidance and how it impacts clinical trial operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. 

The Guidance document is posted here and is also available in previous readings:

• Please read the attached FDA Guidance for COVID-19.
