 Strategy:

- Interview with guidance counselors, class advisers & discipline officer on these teen age problematic cases
- Interview on parents of problematic teens
- Likert Scale on teenagers on the different activities they are engaged into (parties, camping, gimmicks, spending time in the internet/facebook/social media/internet chat) - Media literacy test

 Target

audience: Grade 7 – 10 students

The depression, eating disorders(anorexia, bulimia, obesity), and adventurism (premarital sex, “eyeball” meet-ups) among the youth. These may result in poor scholastic performance of students. It may be possible to circumvent these cases by simply providing classes on media and information literacy. This may result in a positive effect in student performance and/or overall wellbeing. In this developmental stage of the Filipino youth, it is important to develop a positive self-image and an empowered outlook in life to promote the development of a well-adjusted young adult to join Filipino society.

 The

group decided to see the link of the use of social media to these cases since based from the interviews, all the cases have social media accounts and some of the cases are related to the use of social media accounts.
The group tried to tally the number of cases with the involvement and non-involvement of social media

    The Merchants of Cool is a documentary about researchers and marketers exploring out into the society to see what is popular or cool in the latest trends within teenagers. These people would spend days going around the streets, malls, and even schools to find out what is the next big thing that will give them the attention from people. They would have the teenagers participate in surveys and studies while analyzing them thoroughly to portray the founded characteristics into the media. These marketers realized that teenagers are actually portraying themselves to the media so the media would then reveal it back to the teenagers, which teenagers then sees it and portrays them that way. The only disadvantage of that was once the marketer reveals what is cool to the world, they would have to go on the radar and find out what is the next thing that is cool. We live in a culture, a consumer culture to be specific where we are driven to buy things, especially teenagers, which is fueled by corporate motivation to annual grow profits. There was a teenager in the video and she stated that no matter where she goes, she must always get ready to look nice before she leaves the house. As mentioned earlier, sometimes the media depicts things that will cause teenagers to feel like they are not good enough, thin enough, or pretty enough and the negative thoughts build up. Although this video was made about twelve years ago, teenagers are still the same as today. Teenagers should not have look into the media or advertisement to find out what they want or how are they supposed to be. Each individual is different with a unique mind so every teenager should act and be like however they want. Teenagers just needs to understand that the cool hunters are just being paid to find people who they think are cool to ask questions and find answers, which advertisers and producers will then use this cool information to sell more…

    The aim of this assignment is to explore a needs orientated approach to care, and use a model of nursing – Roper, Logan and Tierney (RLT) model – to formulate a care plan. The RLT model of nursing is based on 12 activities of daily living and it provides a framework for nurses to plan and deliver appropriate nursing care. By using the activities of daily living when gathering information about a patient a nurse can begin a problem solving approach to care planning, however, as suggested by Barrett et al (2009), the nursing model not only provides questions to ask during the assessment of a patient, but they offer beliefs and values and instructions to what is important and relevant during the process of care planning. “The nursing process is the tool or methodology of professional nursing that assists nurses in arriving at decisions and helps them predict and evaluate consequences.” George (2002). The RLT model was created in 1980 for educational purposes – students and teachers - and was the first UK model to be used in a variety of settings; it is now used in many parts of the world and has been translated into 8 other languages, it is also popular with UK nurses and is one of the most commonly used within the UK according to Tierney, (1998). Barrett, et al suggests it is popular in the UK as it is written by British nurses and is easily understood. RLT’s model of nursing follows the process of assessment, planning, implementation and evaluation, this is also known as APIE which enables the nurse to carry out a care plan which provides complete holistic care. RLT’s model focuses on individuality, dependence-independence continuum, progression along a life span continuum and influencing factors. Barrett (2009) have also introduced ASPIRE which includes assessment, systematic nursing diagnosis, implementation, recheck and evaluate.…
