Good luck with your research. If I were you I would start litearture review on three dimensions

1) Curriculum (theory, design, implementation etc)

2) Aged Care Education

3) Africa (as context and African Education settings etc)

After having analysed those three, start combining them to form your research questions and the assertion (the hypothesis you want to prove).

Certainly you and your supervisor know better. That is just a thought!

Thank you Konstatinos. Very helpful.

Ingrid, thank you.

I would recommend using the competency framework applicable to old age care and identifying interventions that deals with all 3 aspects of 70:20:10. The 70% on-the-job training should also be linked to address specific competency requirements. Class room training conveying theoretical aspects should aslo be suplemented with practical exercises and assignments.

Thank you Christa

I and my husband have been taking care of my 100 year old mother for 8 years in our home. Theoretically, I have followed her love and passions from past years.... 1.Sewing activities; 2. Cutting activities; 3. Material rearrangement activities, etc. "Simply you say" but as her decline in skills progressed I have been searching for a more meditational approach instead of a hands-on approach. Spiritualism is so subjective and my stroke victim mother does not have the mental depth that it will take to go inward for peace. Any suggestions?

Thanks Patricia

Thanks Patricia

You might also want to consider a cultural sensitive or cultural care theory, especially if you want to incorporate some cultural contents in your intervention. I did that. You can see my papers. For sure, listen and follow the instructions from your supervisor.

Thanks zou

We have completed a European project on that issue and the final report is available at: http://ellan.savonia.fi/

Thank you Sourtzi. I found the canMed model very useful.

I suggest you look at Harden R. 1999 - A very basic Model for curriculum development.

Thanks Makoni

You are welcome. Why I suggested Harden is because you can easily come up with your conceptual framework from the theoretical framework to guide your curriculum development.

Alright Makoni

By relying on adult education curricula.
