1.1 DESCRIBE THE BENEFITS TO INDIVIDUALS OF ENGAGING IN LEARNING OR DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES.
The benefits will be as follows: - Apart from the benefits of being able to do something or knowing about something, learning or development activities can have many benefits for the person including physical, intellectual, emotional and social benefits, otherwise known as PIES.
Physical Benefits: - Physical inactivity is a major risk for developing coronary artery disease. It also contributes to other risk factors including obesity, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. Some physical activities build muscular strength while others increase endurance. Some forms of physical activities involve using the large muscles in your arms or legs. These are called endurance or aerobic exercises. These activities help the heart by making it work more efficiently during exercise and at rest. Other physical benefits can include:- An increase in muscle strength, an increase in joint mobility, an increase in appetite, the normalisation of sleep patterns, the lowering of blood pressure, an increase in lung capacity (how big a breath can be taken), an increased ability to carry out tasks of daily living.
Intellectual benefits: - Your brain is an organ that learns and grows by interacting with the world. Mental stimulation can improve the brain’s function and can protect against cognitive decline. Other intellectual benefits can include:- The ability to communicate more readily, becoming more mentally alert, an increased interest in surroundings and other people, an increase in memory ability and an increase in concentration levels.
Emotional benefits: - Learning or development can improve a person’s self-esteem. This is how the person thinks of themselves. Activities which stimulate the brain or body can help the person to feel better about them selves. The person’s self confidence can be improved and they can become calmer and less stressed about things going on
