Please be creative and detail the profile of your target audience. PUT SOME TIME AND EFFORT INTO DEVELOPING A “PICTURE” OF THE “PATIENT” YOU WILL BE TEACHING!

• Decide on a Target Audience for this assignment. ONLY SELECT ONE AGE GROUP.
• Developmental Considerations relate to “Learner Readiness.” Learner readiness takes into account physical, cognitive, and psychosocial maturation. Include Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory for the age group of your target audience. GIVE A BRIEF SUMMARY OF ERIKSON’S STAGE AS IT RELATES TO YOUR TARGET AUDIENCE.  Other developmental considerations include the willingness or ability of the individual to learn, prior life experiences, and cultural influences. In addition to identifying developmental considerations, you, as the nurse will also identify any barriers to learning. 
• The content of instruction is the information that will be taught by the nurse. THE CONTENT MUST COME FROM A PROFESSIONAL WEBSITE SUCH AS THE AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION, CDC, USDA – DIETARY GUIDELINES ETC.
• Use each of the three domains of learning in your teaching plan. For an understanding of learning domains see: 3 DOMAINS OF LEARNING.docx
• Learner goals and objectives must be patient-centered. For an understanding of Goals and Objectives see: WRITING LEARNER GOALS AND OBJECTIVES.docx 
• Include APA references. See “APA Tutorial & References” in the Modules tab of this course.   

Cite reference(s) using APA format. Click on this Link (Links to an external site.). If you cite more than one reference, please list your references within the body of the text (not at the end of your submission) to show where the information was obtained. Proper use of referencing will allow your colleagues to find information of interest and this will augment student learning!

Please paraphrase your work or use direct quote(s) as needed. The majority of the information that you submit must be your own work. You may not “cut and paste” information from the Internet as this is considered plagiarism.
