Human health (inherited and environmental factors)

A revision poster on human health summarising the key-points on;

• the role of WHO (World Health Organisation) in public health
• recall the key parts of the cell -> nucleus, gene, chromosome and DNA
• factors affecting human health - inheritance and environmental factors
• inherited factors - diabetes, cystic fibrosis, haemophilia and lactose inhertance
• environmental - nutrition and lifestyle choices
• nutrition information labels

My students stick this revision poster/chart into their copy book at the start or end of the chapter content delivery. I use these revision posters to show students the importance of chunk revising. They spend time recalling/memorising the key-points; some students will create their own revision resource to suit their learning style by using this content eg. a mind-map, flash cards and some create their own audio recordings to help.
