In our country, people suffering from common ailments like flu, diarrhoea, fever etc. do not consult doctor but buy or use medicines on their own which may result in health complications. A project is given to the students of class VIII to study the practises of self-medication in their neighbourhood. Which of the following indicators of learning in science can be assessed in their project? Correct Answer Analysis, Communication, Data collection

Since the project is given on a vast topic that is health issues of people due to their medications, Analysis, Communication, and Data collection should be followed by the students to complete the project successfully. Key Points

  • Communication is important for this project as the students need information on how the people got diseases without communicating with them. Good communication and conversation are needed between those people and students to progress further in the project.
  • Data collection is the next process after communication with the people. Data like causes for the people to depend on self-medication without consulting a doctor, medicines they have utilized for the diseases they had, and how many days they suffered due to disease can be collected.
  • Analysis means breaking down information into parts so that it can be studied in-depth and the required outcomes are fulfilled. Here regarding this topic students can break this into people facing flu, people facing diarrhea, and people facing fever and the particular medicines they used due to which they got health complications and conclude.

Hence Analysis, Communication, and Data collection can be assessed in their project. Additional Information

Fever in the season of dengue is sending Calcuttans scurrying to hospitals for admission, triggering a shortage of beds that has forced some private health care institutes to even postpone planned surgeries. Apollo Gleneagles Hospitals on the Bypass had 504 patients in its care as on Thursday of whom 70 had been admitted with fever. Belle Vue Clinic had 180 patients, 32 of them with dengue. Calcutta Medical Research Institute had 350 patients 60 of them with fever. The number of people admitted for treatment of fever caused by dengue or any undiagnosed illness has been rising every day across hospitals for more than a fortnight. "There has been heavy pressure on all private hospitals for admission of dengue and cases of unknown fever since the beginning of August. Now it is a surge," said Pradip Tondon, President of the Association of Hospitals of Eastern India. In July, four to five patients were getting admitted with fever on an average in every hospital. The number has since ballooned with the Calcutta Municipal Corporation apparently in denial about the extent of the dengue outbreak and the Government focused on playing down the threat. Such has been the rush of patients with fever that some hospitals are calling up people to postpone admissions planned in advance, mostly for surgeries. "We have told many people to come only when we call them to confirm availability of beds," said an official at Belle Vue.
