Educational Interventions

Creating educational interventions to help improve the overall health of a target population (Low Income Urbanite) is an essential skill for public health and health education professionals. Intervening in peoples’ lives to positively impact their health and well-being can also be rewarding. However, it is essential that the creation of educational interventions is done using the appropriate tools and skills and that you carefully select and apply theories and models to attain the best results possible.Using the Theory of Reasoned Action/Planned Behavior, design an educational plan to counter a trend within your assigned target population related to your selected topic. Within your educational plan, be sure to respond to the following: List the beliefs of the target regarding the topic. List the evaluations of those beliefs (identify list as important/not important). What are the beliefs of the target population (subjective norm)? Are the targets capable and confident to complete behavior (Perceived Behavioral Control)?
