3.3 The mental health of young black men According to the Health Development Agency, ‘Young black men are over-represented in the mental health statistics’ (Health Development Agency, 2001, p. 36), particularly in terms of diagnosis for schizophrenia, which is generally three times higher for the African-Caribbean population than for the UK white population (Nazroo, 1997). Young black men are over-represented in hospital admissions for mental health problems, contact with psychiatry via the police, courts and prison, and at the
2.4 Applying a critical approach A critical approach to young people's health sounds fine in the abstract, but what might it mean in practice? How can such a framework help us to make sense of young people's actual experience of physical and mental distress? To explore these questions, we will look at the apparent increase in the incidence of eating disorders, especially among young women. One of the advantages of this example is that it combines concerns about physical and mental health. This discussion will draw on a
2.1 Introduction In the unit overview we explored some of the images and discourses about young people's health currently in circulation. But what assumptions are being made in these stories about what it means for a young person to be healthy, whether physically or mentally? What kind of model of wellbeing is being used in these discourses, and are there alternative approaches?
Introduction This unit examines the subject of brain-based learning, with a particular focus on the development of the young child's brain and is of particular relevance to those who work with young children. We begin by looking at the structure and functions of the brain, and the impact that sensory deprivation can have on these. We consider the implications of current understandings of brain development for teaching and learning, particularly in an early years setting, and finish by exploring the value
4.7 Summary Piaget proposed that all children pass through an ordered sequence of stages of cognitive development. This development arises through the processes of intrinsic motivation, assimilation and accommodation and equilibriation. Children's actions on the environment are the basic building blocks of development. Piaget argued that children reason differently to adults, as their mental representations of the world are initially centre

The Jepson Leadership Forum presents American pop-folk singer-songwriter Dar Williams for the performance, Music Movements in a Capitalist Democracy. Dar has been called the poet laureate of the folk world, and her style has been compared to that of Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez. She reflects on how artists have used music to facilitate socio-politico transitions and resolve conflicts, and shares samples from her beautifully crafted portfolio of songs of protest, power, and tolerance.
