Structure of learning experience, including length of session, where it will take place, learning materials & equipment needed:
|
Session Specifics:
This will be lecture basis learning and I will teach the young adults myself by taking interactive class. This session will last for five days and two hours daily. |
Learning Materials:
There are some books that I have selected to use as learning material. “Your Guide to the Breast Cancer” and also “An Introduction to the Prostate Cancer ” |
Equipment Needed:

|
Create one community education handout for this teaching session and discuss its readability level and appropriateness for your learner population. Attach the community education handout.
|
Readability Level of Community Education Handout:
I have created a community learning handout in which I have discussed all the reasons and symptoms of breast cancer and prostate cancer and how to bring awareness in the society to protect ourselves from the damages of Breast Cancer and Prostate Cancer. These handouts are easily readable for the learners as the most of the young adults are educated and they are able to read and understand the contents of the handouts. |
