Week 2: Connecting the Concepts

Reflective Activity

This reflective activity will help you transfer the things you’ve learned into long-term memory. You are encouraged to review this information as you continue learning to promote content mastery and faster retrieval of information for application.

This week you learned about immunity, infection, and gas exchange.

Connecting This Week to Previous Learning

• Following class, review your notes and the key concepts of immunity, infection, and gas exchange.
• Compare what you learned this week to your prior course(s). What did you learn before that you can connect to this week’s concepts? For example, in your health and wellness course you learned about the levels of prevention and that immunizations are part of primary prevention. How can you apply that to childhood immunizations and infections?
• You also learned about gas exchange and the various respiratory conditions in the pediatric population. Can you identify three priority lifestyle changes to consider to restore health, maintain current health status, or achieve a new level of health and wellness for pediatric clients with respiratory conditions such as asthma or pneumonia?
• For each lifestyle change you identified, describe how the change will help the client’s current or future health status.

Preparing to Learn Next Week

• Outline the priority steps you completed to prepare for class.
• Identify what went well with your class preparation.
• Describe two ways your class preparations were beneficial to your learning.
• Describe how you will incorporate what you have learned in class to clinical.
• Determine what you would like to do differently with your preparation for next week.
• Determine what you would like to do differently in the care you provided to clients from this week to next.
