1. Examples of informal education include
a.
attending a workshop on coronary artery disease sponsored
by the American Heart Association.
b.
watching a television show about diabetes.
c.
learning about food safety techniques in a high school economics course.
d.
joining a support group to help overcome an eating disorder.

ANS: B

Watching a television show about diabetes is an example of informal
education because it is an experience that occurs through a daily

activity. Attending a workshop or joining a support group would be
considered nonformal education; a high school course would be
considered formal education.

Bher.Cto inMclude in her life in order to develop her overall wellness?
a.
Growing some of her own food

, b.
Keeping a food record to help evaluate what she eats
c.
Eating meals with friends throughout the week
d.
Meeting with a registered dietitian to review her food choices

ANS: C

Wellness enhances a person’s level of health through development of

each of the six dimensions of health: physical health, intellectual health,

emotional health, social health, spiritual health, and environmental

health. Exercise and eating a healthy variety of foods help develop

physical health; taking a course in general nutrition helps develop

intellectual health; buying locally produced food helps develop

environmental health; being part of a faith-based organization helps

develop spiritual health; and keeping a journal helps develop emotional

health. The missing dimension in this example is development of social

health; eating meals with friends throughout the week would add this

dimension. Growing her own food would be another example of

environmental health; keeping a food record would be another

contributor to physical health; and meeting with a registered dietitian

may contribute to physical, intellectual, and emotional health.
