Content scheduling

Orientoiva tehtävä:
Mitä tarkoittavat käsitteet asiantuntijuus, ohjaus ja konsultointi. Kirjaa käsitteet auki ja palauta tehtävä ennen ensimmäistä tuntia. Kirjaa myös käyttämäsi lähteet ylös.

Viikko 12: Opintojakson aloitus, tehtävien esittely ja orientoivan tehtävän purku (=hissipuhe) omasta aiheesta + keskustelua aiheesta
Alustus/luento ”Kohderyhmäanalyysin ja pedagogiikan merkitys terveydenhuollossa ohjauksen ja konsultoinnin näkökulmasta”

Opintojakson tehtävä: Suunnittele valitsemallesi kohderyhmälle/työyhteisölle/valmiista case-tapauksista ohjaus ja konsultaatiotilanne, jossa käytät ennakkotehtävän käsitteitä (asiantuntijuus, ohjaus ja konsultointi). Kuljeta tekstissä rinnakkain tilannekuvausta, kirjallisuudesta löytämääsi teoriaa, jolla perustelet tapahtumaa sekä omaa pohdintaasi. Ota huomioon tehtävässäsi preanalytiikka, joka on bioanalyytikon yksi tärkein asiantuntijuusalue. Millaista näyttöön perustuvaa ohjaus- ja pedagogista osaamista bioanalyytikon ohjaus ja konsultaatiotilanteissa tarvitaan? Kerrothan tehtävässä suunnittelusta, itse tilanteesta sekä mahdollisista jatkotoimenpiteistä. Liitä tekstiin omaa kriittistä, perusteltua ja kehittävää vuoropuhelua, pohdintaa ja kysymyksiä. Laadi työstäsi selkeä ja tehtävänannon kannalta olennaiset seikat huomioiva kokonaisuus väliotsikointia käyttäen.
Lisää tehtävän loppuun kolme tärkeintä oivallusta / havaintoa, jotka tehtävän aikana koit. Rakenna näiden oivallusten pohjalta viikolle 20 esitys omasta tehtävästäsi.
