VARK analysis
Introduction
VARK analysis is a tool that evaluates learners based on four preferred learning methods. The four learning styles are visual (diagrams, movies, pictures), auditory (lectures, discussion, music), reading/writing (taking notes, reading textbooks, making lists), and kinesthetic learning (hands-on activities, experiments, movement) forming the acronym VARK. It acknowledges that every learner would have a preferred learning method based on the combination of school activities and teaching methods matched to learning preferences, strengths and style. The analysis makes use of a self-report inventory that pose a series of situations with the learner expected to identify the answer that best answers the preferred learning method (Cherry, 2019). The present paper discusses the results of VARK analysis.
Discussion
Provide a summary of your learning style according the VARK questionnaire.
I had a score of 8 points in the visual preference, 5 points in the auditory preference, 12 points in the reading/writing preference, and 10 points in the kinesthetic preference. The scores indicate that I had strong scores in the reading/writing and kinesthetic preference, with average scores in auditory and visual preferences.
Describe your preferred learning strategies. Compare your current preferred learning strategies to the identified strategies for your preferred learning style.
Based on the VARK analysis results, although I can use the four learning methods, my preferred learning style is the multimodal learning strategy since I have multiple learning preferences. In this case, I have two strong preferences and two weak preferences. For that matter, I have a choice of the two strong preferences for my interactions with learning material. To be more precise, my VARK profile is RK thus implying that I prefer to process information presented in the reading/writing format and kinesthetic format in order to get a satisfying and thorough understanding (VARK, 2019).

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.
Individual learning styles affect the degree to which a learner can understand and perform education activities. That is because the odds of learning success are increased if the learning strategy is within the scope of the preferred learning styles. Using strategies outside the preferred learning style is not helpful since the learner would find it difficult to understand the education material. For instance, the formal education approach places heavy emphasis on the R mode during both the instruction and assessment phases. For learners whose preferred learning strategy is R, this formal education approach does not offer much of a challenge. However, the same cannot be said for learners whose preferred mode is not R since they would be disadvantaged. In such cases, it is recommended that educators use a range of learning modes to reach a larger number of learners. This is considering that learners have different preferred learning modes. Through this approach, the learning environment is equalized so that no learner is left behind or disheartened since individualized approaches are used (Cherry, 2019).
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?
Preferred learning styles are all about the best learning method that is advantageous to the learner through allowing for satisfying and thorough understanding of the education content. For individuals participating in health promotion, achieving the desired outcome is only possible if the information is not only context specific but also presented in the preferred learning mode. For learners who prefer the multimodal learning strategy, the health promotion format and approach does not really matter since they can switch between different learning modes thus allowing them to be context specific. For learners who prefer a single modality, presenting the health information in a different modality makes it difficult for them to understand the information, typically taking longer to achieve the desired outcome. As such, it is prudent to present health promotion in different learning modes so that each individual has an opportunity to learn the information in the preferred model to improve the efficiency of the learning process in terms of increasing the speed at which the content is understood and applied (VARK, 2019).
Conclusion
One must accept that VARK analysis offers an opportunity to understand the preferred learning style. In addition, one must acknowledge that the analysis assigns labels to learners, showing the information modes that are easier to understand. This information is useful for aligning the learning style to the teaching strategy, to improve the learning efficiency in terms of making learning enjoyable, understanding the content and reducing the time spent in learning. This is useful information, justifying the investment in many learning modes to reach a larger audience in health promotion.

Assessment Description
Describe the nurse’s role and responsibility as health educator. What strategies, besides the use of learning styles, can a nurse educator consider when developing tailored individual care plans, or for educational programs in health promotion? When should behavioral objectives be utilized in a care plan or health promotion?
Being an educator is one of the most important tasks that nurses play in illness prevention and
health promotion. The majority of patient interaction time is spent by nurses, who also offer
proactive advice on vaccines, diet, medicine, and safety.
For all nurses, patient education is a big obligation. Between the time of admission and the
time of discharge, a patient should get education. The ability to instruct patients and enforce
instruction is something that nurses can do at any time. Patient evaluation is the first step in
being a health educator and a teacher. The need for patient assessment stems from the fact
that every patient has a unique learning style, educational background, set of values, and
worldview. Assessing for any learning obstacles is another duty of nurses. Culture, health
disparities, the environment, linguistic, literary, and physiological limitations are only a few
of these obstacles. In order to manage their health, avoid illness, and promote health, patients
need to be educated. As part of an interdisciplinary team, nurses should construct a patient-
specific lesson plan (Whitney, 2018). NRS-429VN Family-Centered Health Promotion GCU
An interdisciplinary team and a nurse educator may work together to create a personalized
care plan. To improve the effectiveness of their instruction, nurses must learn what matters to
their patients and what drives them. Each patient will experience this differently because they
all have various learning motivations. To demonstrate excellent teaching, nurses should use
the teach back technique. It is crucial for nurses to concentrate on a particular target group
that has similar values and objectives when creating educational programs for health
promotion. The degree of literacy and any other learning obstacles must be identified. It is
important to determine the literacy level and any other barriers to learning. Providing various
resources such as video, written, and audio material is essential for teaching and evaluating
the patient’s knowledge in teaching. (Smith & Zsohar, 2013).
When a patient is ready to learn and change, behavioral goals should be included in their care
plan. Before using the behavioral target, a nurse must assess the patient's readiness for change
and develop an objective appropriate for the patient's stage. In addition to being essential in
enhancing patients' health and wellbeing, nurses also play a critical role in patient education.

Topic 1 DQ 2
Describe a health promotion model used to initiate behavioral changes. How does this model help in teaching behavioral changes? What are some of the barriers that affect a patient’s ability to learn? How does a patient’s readiness to learn, or readiness to change, affect learning outcomes?
The health belief model-rural health promotion and disease prevention toolkit states to focus on the individuals health conditions, how the patient perceives their illness or disease, how the perceive the severity of their illness, barriers that affect the person or community, and confidence to succeed.
The Health promotion model makes four assumptions. One assumption individuals actively search to regulate their lifestyle behaviors, individuals actively participate in the environment and in turn change themselves and the environment, and the individual actively participates to change their behaviors. Health promotion models help patient’s have a healthier lifestyle. There are different factors that individuals and communities have for an unsafe lifestyle behaviors such as not being active, unhealthy daily eating, smoking, and stress. Simpson(2015) states some of the reasons people show these types of unhealthy behaviors is because low income, lack of access to safe places for exercise, healthy foods are not readily available to people, and culture and ethical differences.
Some of the barriers that may occur are that individuals do not want to make the lifestyle change, they do not have the resources, their attitude towards their illness/disease, they may be in denial, and they just aren’t ready to. Looking through this model, it reminded me of a diabetic patient that we gave education daily and the patient was not ready to make lifestyle changes. The patient then had a toe, and then another, and another, until it was a below the knee amputation due to being non-compliant. It was at that point the patient was ready to make the change to their lifestyle. It doesn’t have to get to that point if the correct resources and education is given to patients.

There are several models used to initiate behavioral changes. The following are examples:
Socio-ecological Model: Addresses behavior change at multiple levels; consider inter-relationship between behavior and environment; account for multiple factors that influence behavior change process.
Trans-theoretical Model (stages of change): accounts for readiness to make and sustain behavioral changes
Health Belief Model: addresses readiness to act of health behaviors based on individual beliefs.
I’ll focus on the Trans-theoretical for this assignment. This model helps in the teaching of behavioral changes by focusing on five stages.
Pre-contemplation: No intention to change withing the next 6 months; could be due to lack of knowledge or unsuccessful previous attempts at change.
Contemplation: Considering change within 6 months; Ambivalence may keep individual from progressing.
Preparation: Individual takes steps towards change within the next 30 days
Action: Apparent behavior change for 6 months or less.
Maintenance: Behavior change that has lasted over 6 months.
Barriers that affect a persons ability to learn can vary from intellectual, physical, mental, Social, or even the teachers personality. “The supreme value of a teacher is not in the regular performance of routine duties, but in his power to lead and to inspire his pupils through the influence of his moral personality and example; Strictly speaking, personality is made up of all the factors that make the individual what he is, the complex pattern of characteristics that distinguishes him from the others of his kind; Personality is the product of many integrating forces”(yourarticlelibrary.com).
When a patient is ready to learn/change outcomes are more apparent due to the motivation. The nurse should be able to distinguish between the changes of stages; however, at the same time be aware that progress may go forward or backwards. “While there are some similarities to the socioecological model, this model focuses on helping the individual to move through the stages toward a sustained behavior change”(extension.purdue.edu).
