It is important for motivating higher consumer engagement. Health literacy (HL) describes an intermediate outcome of health education and health promotion and refers to an individual's capacities, skills and motivation to make judgments and decisions in everyday life concerning healthcare, disease prevention and health promotion. The aim of this study was to systematically review the literature on health literacy and health outcomes as an evidence-based review of plausible causal pathways that could best explain well-established associations between limited health literacy and health outcomes globally. This research is based on past researches by employing the systematic review approach. 8 out of 825 articles has been identified for analytical purposes in tandem with the observed theme; the influence of health literacy on health outcomes.

2023-04-24 , Yasmin Ahmad , Mohammad Rezal Hamzah , Huzili Hussin , Adila Ismail , Shuhairimi Abdullah , Yusof H.A.M. , Abdul Rahman Abdul Manaf , Huzili A.I.

The reality of ethnic and cultural diversity in the classroom today is a massive challenge for teachers, especially prospective teachers. The teacher education program is vital in educating prospective teachers with culturally responsive pedagogy and teaching students from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds. A school environment consisting of students from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds requires teachers to meet their needs. Teachers must be culturally competent to respond effectively in terms of diversity in their classrooms and prepare their students to live and work in a global society. Preparing prospective teachers for this role is not an easy task and what makes it more difficult is that the diversity of teachers does not always match the diversity of students in schools. This paper will discuss cultural competency among prospective teachers and related theories regarding this issue. Teachers and prospective teachers should show professional competencies that will enable them to work effectively, respectfully, and ethically with students from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds.
