Teaching Strategies

Several strategies will be integrated within the teaching session to ensure effective communication about the importance of prenatal care. In the first part, the PowerPoint presentation will serve as a method of explaining. Key concepts in a structured lecture-based way using charts and statistics. One function of this method is especially helpful for justifying the

schedule of prenatal visits and outlining the advantages of early care. This strategy is a clear delivery of information; however, without support from engaging activities, it can be too passive, and participants may struggle to stay attentive if it is dense or delivered too quickly. To help curb this, however, Visual aids will be included to help with retention, and the pace of the curriculum will be adjusted to help your comprehension.

Furthermore, participants will be asked to participate in an interactive group discussion to engage in active practice. This strategy facilitates open dialogue where participants share personal experiences and work together to discover common barriers to accessing prenatal care. This approach is collaborative, helping participants solve the problems encountered while using the concepts discussed in their daily situations. However, discussions may be off track or too long, and all participants will not feel comfortable contributing in a group setting. In order to remedy this, the facilitator will help keep the conversation on track and have a safe space for everyone to participate.

There will also be a question-and-answer session allowing people to ask any questions and promote two-way communication. However, there may be time constraints to the depth of the discussion. Lastly, a brochure or handout summarizing important points will be distributed as a reference after the session. While it is a great takeaway, it only works if participants review it later. As such, the brochure should be concise and visually compelling to keep the reader interested. APA
