Your comments will be graded on how well they meet the Discussion Requirements posted under “Before You Begin.” Before delving into your response to the Discussion question, I would like us to continue to get to know each other through an icebreaker.
You will be seeing these icebreakers at the beginning of each module’s Discussion. The icebreaker for this Discussion is as follows: I want you to fill-in-the-blank to the following statement. People would be surprised to know that ____________ (share something interesting/unique about yourself that people would be surprised to know). After answering the icebreaker question, please answer the following question in your Discussion response: To what extent do you think cultural beliefs, values, and traditions may impact health education efforts? To what extent do you think cultural beliefs, values, and traditions may enhance health education efforts?
