“Gaming is an instructional method requiring the learner to participate in a competitive activity with preset rules (Allery, 2004). The goal is for the learners to win a game by applying knowledge and rehearsing skills previously learned” (Bastable, S.B., 2014, p.486). Gaming has been proven to stimulate the learning environment and its particularly attractive o children.

        Gaming has been the selected instructional method chosen to teach a class of 10 Hispanic adolescents whose first language is Spanish. This small group of adolescent will taught about healthy lifestyle and healthy meal choices. Acculturation will be discussed and students will be allowed to express their feelings. Important key factors and characteristics of this ethnic group will be taken into account in order to develop a successful teaching plan which will be through the gaming strategy. Culturally acquired living styles will be respected and share through the game. Preferred language will be assessed and the ability to effectively communicate in English will also be taken into account. Written and audiovisual materials will also be available for further reference and clarification. (Bastable, S.B., 2014). The setting will be a classroom which will be equipped with a screen, laptop, screen projector and handouts with the information and the rules for the game. The class will be divided into two groups. Each group will be presented with a picture of a meal and they will need to identified as healthy or unhealthy and specify why. The group that gives the best explanation will win 1 point. Each group will also be responsible for developing a weekly exercise plan according to their age and the most complete plan will be the winner. At the end of the game the winner group will be recognized and will be allowed to do small presentation about what they learned through the game.

        The pictures to be presented will closely relate to this specific ethnic group meal choices and by discussing what it is health or not substitutes for the ingredients or meals will also be presented. The objectives of this game is to exchange unhealthy eating habits by healthy ones while maintaining their meal preferences based on their culture and choices. Understanding the benefits of daily exercise to one’s health will also be another objective that will be evaluated through the teach- back method.

        Gaming is a great teaching strategy that has been known for keeping the learner’s attention throughout the session. It is suitable for all development levels of the learner, all ethnic groups and can take place anywhere with little resources needed. Gaming may improve recall and retention of information and learner will learn while having fun. (Bastable, S.B., 2014).

The learning experience I had was both good and bad. I was helping care for a 32 year old female that came into the emergency room for vomiting blood. Before getting her labs back the patient had to pee, so I put her in a wheelchair and assisted her to the bathroom. She ended up passing out while sitting on the toilet and at that point I knew she was pretty sick. She initially didn’t present that bad but things changed quickly. After getting her back in bed and settled, I was able to look at her labs. She had a very low hemoglobin and that explained it all. Not knowing the patients religion preference, I went into the room with the provider to explain what was going on and that she needed a blood transfusion. The patient then explained that she was a jehovah witness and cannot receive blood or blood products. I was so upset and kind of mad at her refusal. This patient was an alcoholic, which is forbidden in her religion, and she didn’t have a problem drinking. She explained to me that it’s an addiction she’s been trying to fight, but not receiving blood is very important to her. “Furthermore, they claim that anyone who unrepentantly accepts a blood transfusion does so at the peril of losing eternal life. Thus, faithful Jehovah’s Witnesses accept death, rather than break the Watchtower’s policy against blood transfusions” (4Jehovah, 2013 para. 2). I was initially upset about not being able to help make her better, but I honored her wishes and admitted her to the ICU with a signed refusal for blood. A few days later I learned that this patient had passed away. During her stay the patient was intubated and her family members were trying to push for blood products to be administered. However, because the patients wishes were granted by us in the emergency department she was able to pass away honoring her religion.
