This resource links to KS4 and KS5/Grade 9-10 and Grade 11-12 economics and health.

• This teaching resource explains the work of Dr Belinda Román, an economist at St. Mary’s University in Texas, USA. She is investigating whether providing people living with diabetes with glucose monitoring devices can help them to manage their condition and remain in the workforce.

 

• This resource also contains an interview with Belinda and offers an insight into careers in economics. If your students have questions for Belinda, they can send them through the Futurum Careers website.

 

• The activity sheet provides ‘talking points’ (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy) to prompt students to reflect on Belinda’s research and challenges them to design a diabetes awareness poster.

 

This resource was first published by Futurum Careers, a free online resource and magazine aimed at encouraging 14-19-year-olds worldwide to pursue careers in science, tech, engineering, maths, medicine (STEM) and social sciences, humanities and the arts for people and the economy (SHAPE).
