We suggest the following goals and objectives or student learning outcomes. We provide them in English and Spanish, as you may want to use either version depending on your audience: students or administrators.
Goals
- Appreciate that learning to read cultural texts carefully and effectively improves your ability to listen to and understand a patient and develop a more effective caregiving relationship.
- Develop narrative competence, “to recognize, absorb, interpret, and be moved by the stories of illness” (Charon, Narrative Medicine vii).
- Acquire tools and practices of careful and effective reading and listening
- Understand how culture shapes the ways we think about, talk about, and treat health and illness.
- Recognize how human beings create and assess states of illness and health through language.
- Through reading, develop a moral imagination, the ability to imagine the different experiences and values of another person.
- Pose big-picture questions about the ethics and practices of health care.
Learning Objectives
- Analyze cultural texts applying the vocabulary of literary analysis to explain how texts communicate ideas, give pleasure, affect emotions and how they move readers with their visions of life.
- Discuss the purpose of the text and how that purpose relates to the text’s specific historical context and its author’s identity.
- Identify and compare the differing perspectives presented in a text and the voices that represent those perspectives.
- Analyze the effects of the types of narrator and focalization in a text.
- Describe the sensory images in a text.
- Explain how the text uses figurative language to communicate meaning and create emotional or persuasive effect.
- Identify the tone of a text and explain how that tone is created.
- Analyze the effects of different registers and cultural spheres of the language used in texts: formal, colloquial, familiar, academic, medical, bureaucratic.
- Interpret any movement a text makes in its treatment of a theme from beginning to end.
- Contrast the ways in which different textual genres engage their publics.
- Describe the ethical considerations in a health care situation and in the act of representing the health care situation in a verbal and/or visual text.
- Describe the ambiguities of meaning as well as conflicting perspectives within a textual representation.
- Compare how two different cultures (historically or geographically distant) differ in their beliefs about health care.
- Appreciate how the practice of careful reading of literary and cultural texts can enhance professional practice in health care and other professions.
- Demonstrate careful listening by interviewing another person about a health experience and representing that experience in a narration.
