Forum: Understanding simple medical instructions

Activity 20 · 2%
What you bring
From the URA: the rule Instructions + frequency, the model sentences and 3 words of your career prepared with SofIA.
What this prepares you for
The H5P checks the same forms with automatic feedback.

Your mission

Explain a simple instruction you see on a label or in a clinic. Compare with Canada.

Option A · My career. Explain a simple instruction you see on a label or in a clinic. Compare with Canada.
Option B · Cultural Corner II PAC. Summer festival in Quebec: write 4 instructions to stay safe in the heat. Add 1 fact from the official site and 1 sentence comparing with Honduras.

Model

On a fictional label I read: «Take one tablet twice a day after meals». It means morning and night, after eating. In Canada, pharmacists explain the instructions to you.

Your career in this forum

Write about your career (its exact name in the UNAH Oferta Académica). Choose the example of your area and change it:

  • Health sciences: Nurse: «Take one tablet every eight hours, after meals.»
  • Engineering & technology: The app reminds patients to take their medicine.
  • Business & economics: Pharmacies must label every product clearly.
  • Education, humanities & communication: Instructions should be clear and short.
  • Environment, agriculture & tourism: Don't throw medicines in the river. Take them back to the pharmacy.

Use 3 words of your career glossary.

Cultural connection · II PAC

Event of this week: Fête nationale du Québec (Saint-Jean-Baptiste) (Thursday, June 24). See it in your II PAC Cultural Passport.

Your cultural mission: Summer festival in Quebec: write 4 instructions to stay safe in the heat.

Mirror Honduras: UNAH also teaches French. What do you know about the French language in the Americas?

Include one comparison between Canada and Honduras: one similarity and one difference.

Be respectful: say «In my experience…» or «In my city…», not «All Americans…» or «All Hondurans…». Need ideas? Ask SofIA Cultural.
