HHD Questions Thread 2014

[lucas.vang]

Could you clarify this Smiley ?

[Smiley_]

You have got it, It is really important to go on marks interrelationships between health,
human development and sustainability are usually work 6 marks but sustainable human development questions are usually worth 2-4 marks.

Have a look at last years exam, I think that will really help you!

Oh okay, thanks smiley, walkec and lucas!!

So questions such as 'show the interrelationships to produce sustainable human development' don't exist right?

Section B, Question 5 2011 VCAA Question says : discuss the role education can play in achieving sustainable human development (6 marks)
^ so we would do 2 points for each?
e.g. 2x education to health, 2x education to hd, 2x education to s ??

QUESTION TIME!

Explain the influence of peace on SHD (4 marks)
Discuss the impact of peace using the interrelationships between h,hd,s (6 marks)

- they do exist, but VCAA could give some direction as to what you have to inter relate (e.g. inter relationships from education to produce SHD, global marketing etc)
- yes 2 points each. Sometimes they're worth 8 marks. So if that's the case, I do one health and another of health status and then I try to do another sustainability because I feel like everyone would just choose HD.

And I can't be bothered answering the other questions (sorry) because I've done so many SHD and inter relationships questions today that they're starting to do my head in.

______
What are the three dimensions of HDI and the four indicators?

Your not getting away too easy evawu ...

You still have to answer mine!!

Thanks walkec! Do you think it would be okay to link h --> hd -->s for one cycle and then do it again ? repeat another cycle?

hehehe okay, ill do extra to make up for it :3
 HDI is a tool developed by the UN to measure and rank countries based on social and economic development.  It provides a single statistic from 0-1 using three dimensions: health, education and living standards and four indicators: Life expectancy at birth, mean years of schooling, expected years of schooling and GNI per capita.

Yeah like not necessarily in that order. But you have to make sure your 3rd point links to your 4th point - you can't have them as two separate cycles

[evawu]

So apparently,
Sustainable Human Development:
- Health (2 marks)
- Human Development (2 marks)
- Sustainability (2 marks)
They do not need to interrelate, but they all should link to the specific program/factor.
 
Interrelationship between Health, Human Development and Sustainability:
- Health (2 marks)
- Human Development (2 marks)
- Sustainability (2 marks)
* If the concepts do not interrelate the student will lose up to two marks (one per interrelationship/link missing)


I'm just going to go ahead and answer my own question, can someone please give me advice/tell me if i'm doing it wrong?

Explain the influence of peace on SHD (4 marks)
Peace refers to the absence of conflict, if a country is experiencing peace then there is likely to be less violence which reduces the risk of people becoming injured. Being free from injury promotes physical health. A peaceful environment means that communities may continue accessing a decent standard of living and participating in their community as there are no conflicts. Peace allows people to continue leading productive lives and contributing to the economy to ensure that future generations can also access the economic growth (economic sustainability) to also experience health and sustainable human development?? (sounds dodgy)


Discuss the impact of peace using the interrelationships between h,hd,s (6 marks)

A country in peace means that there are no conflicts that may cause damage to infrastructure such as water systems. This ensures that people can have access to health promoting resources such as clean water sources to reduce their risk of water-borne diseases from drinking unsanitary water. This reduces the mortality rate associated with poor drinking water and promotes physical health so that communities may continue working and earn an income to access a decent standard of living. By working productively and earning an income, communities are contributing to the economy of the country which ensures that future generations can also access this economic growth (economic sustainability). A peaceful country also means that children will be able to access education to enhance their skills and access knowledge about health promoting behaviours. By accessing this knowledge, children will be more likely to partake in health promoting behaviours such as washing hands to reduce the risk of communicable diseases. This reduces the mortality rate associated with communicable diseases such as cholera, thus promoting physical health. Physically healthy children can grow older and have their own children so that knowledge and skills obtained can be passed down to future generations (social sustainability) so that they too can experience positive health and human development outcomes...

is that too long? :/

[evawu]

Yeah like not necessarily in that order. But you have to make sure your 3rd point links to your 4th point - you can't have them as too separate cycles

wait so you can't have them in two seperate cycles? why not?
can you have two seperate cycles for SHD?

[evawu]

Okay guys, I continue to be confused. (I'm sorry  )
but for the interrelationships question apparently you link health to human development and so on?

Then how come in the VCAA 2013 interrelationships question... they linked the program to health, the program to hd and the program to sustainability??
^ my life is a lie

Yes, yes you do have to. This is what I meant about one being a consequence of another. It's like a domino effect, with each domino being health, human development and sustainability. One effect in H/HD/S has to be a consequence and/or cause for another effect in H/HD/S.

Like maybe VCAA isn't as strict as my teacher with the structure of them. But I'm just reiterating what she said and she's marked VCAA exams for like 5 years and this is always the way they've been told inter relationships questions need to be structured.

wait I've been taught sustainable human development and the interrelationships are the same thing?

(sounds dodgy)

try not to waste time referring to health, human development and sustainability. Just key words from the definition is good enough or what you did (economic sustainability). For peace, I'd talk about how governments have more money to invest in education and developing infrastructure. Rather then sounding receptive (peace prevents conflict, safe environment ... etc)

You included health status indicators, which you only should use when it says it explicitly or when referring to global health but I don't think it would affect your mark

Idk about the reduce mortality thus improve physical health. To be honest , I've only used - ideal body weight, freedom from illness and disease, strong immune system, well-functioning body, systems and organs and adequate energy levels to describe physical health. I don't think reduce mortality is good enough to describe the influence on health but who knows? it could

Besides that, your structure is perfect , just needs to sound more natural and flowing

[lucas.vang]

wait I've been taught sustainable human development and the interrelationships are the same thing?

It really depends on the marks. I was taught that interrelationships are worth more marks because you need the links (6marks). Generally if it says just SHD, it would be 2-4 marks like Smiley said !

[walkec]

Yes, they are the same thing
