Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
Application involves using abstract, newly learned ideas in a concrete situation. The client who is taught the clinical manifestations of inflammation and who will assess for signs such as redness or edema is using newly learned information in a concrete manner. Attitude has to do with affec-tive learning. The client is not expressing an attitude, but is applying new knowledge in a con-crete way. Analysis involves breaking down information into organized parts. The client is not demonstrating analysis. Evaluation is a judgment of the worth of a body of information for a given purpose. The client is not expressing judgment.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
Effective teaching methodologies for the toddler include simple explanations and picture books that describe a story of children in a hospital or clinic. Role-playing is an appropriate teaching methodology for the preschooler. Problem-solving is an appropriate teaching methodology for the adolescent. Independent learning is best used as a teaching methodology for the young or middle adult.
