LEARNING MANAGEMENT FOR ELDERLY CARE USING SITUATIONAL COPING SKILLS COMBINED WITH YONISOMANASIKARA THINKING

Abstract

This article presents a learning management approach for elderly care using situational coping skills combined with Yoniso Manasikara (wise reflection). The learning management that relies on situational coping skills is a learning process that trains learners to care for the elderly by themselves. It provides opportunities to relate to what they will learn or have good friends (Kalyanamitta) to help facilitate learning. Learners can use the experiences gained from this learning as a guide for making choices and decisions through analysis and evaluation, leading to the practice of elderly care. Additionally, Yoniso Manasikara is a principle for self-training with mindfulness, knowing how to think correctly, systematically, and analytically, not superficially. It involves thinking based on reason and with wholesome intentions.
