Assessment Task 3: Health Intervention Evaluation Presentation Due: 12 noon Thursday 14th November 2019 (Week 14)

Weighting: 40% (30% content and notes; 10% visual design and presentation)

Length: 10 PowerPoint slides, no more than 15 minutes of presentation time

Details

Select one of two health interventions described below and prepare an evaluation plan using the six- step method covered in weeks 7-8 (Evaluation Methods).

Choose one (1) of the two interventions:

1. Family planning intervention. By dialling a toll-free number, callers (women in a community) can

speak to a trained educator to get accurate information about the correct use of family planning methods, how to avoid unwanted pregnancies and the location of the nearest family planning clinic.

• Telehealth – dermatology advice to community health care workers. Community health care workers use a camera and laptop to capture and send images of patients to dermatology specialists located in the major teaching hospital of the region. The dermatology specialists then provide the health care workers with diagnostic and treatment advice and the location of specialized dermatology clinics and specialist Dermatology physicians in the patient’s region.

Imagine you want to explain to a mixed audience of health professionals, how you would evaluate one of the health interventions above, by using a 15-minute PowerPoint presentation.

The assignment must include:

10 PowerPoint slides with each slide including accompanying text in the notes section of each slide.

• The accompanying text, in the notes section of each slide, should be comprehensive and explain in- depth the information contained on each slide. Full explanations, particularly in relation to the evaluation six (6) steps, are required to elucidate the material on the slide.
• There should be at least one slide for each of the six (6) evaluation steps listed below.
• You need to include an introductory slide where you describe the intervention (in more detail than is listed above), how it works and who it is designed to help.
• One slide will be used to list your references.

Six Evaluation Steps:

Step 1 Identify the change/outcome desired for the intervention and formulate evaluation questions Step 2 Identify the boundaries and dimensions of your evaluation

Step 3 Select comparison groups

Step 4 Select techniques for measuring the change/outcome desired Step 5 Plan the organization and conduct of your evaluation

Step 6 Report the results of your evaluation

Referencing

Please refer to the Unit Guide on iLearn particularly in relation to academic integrity and assignment guide. It is essential that any resources, journal articles, reports, books, web pages etc. referred to in your assignment are appropriately referenced using the Vancouver citation style. Software is used to check all assignments for plagiarism.

What you must submit:

You are required to record yourself presenting the slides in PowerPoint and to upload ONE PowerPoint file that contains:

1. The PowerPoint presentation (10 slides maximum) with a voice-over recording (no more than 15 minutes in length)

• The PowerPoint slides and notes pages accompanying each slide

Instructions on how to record yourself in your PowerPoint presentation are included below

Guide for assessment/marking of assignment 3

There are two (2) marking rubrics for this assignment (page 3).

One guide is for the content of the slides and the notes pages (30%) and one guide is for the visual design of the Power Point slides and the presentation audio voiceover (10%).

Guidelines/tips for PowerPoint slides and notes Keep it Simple

• Use only one message per slide. If you have more than one message, add a slide.
  • Limit the amount of text on each slide – no one wants to read a JAMA article during your presentation.
  • Use only elements that add to the content of the message. Use graphics that clearly support your message. Good graphics can significantly add to learning, bad graphics can confuse and distract your audience.
  • Maintain a consistent design with regard to colours, font styles, and graphics.
  • You might use a formal typeface like Palatino and a symmetrical layout for a serious issue or you could use a casual font like Comic Sans and an asymmetrical layout for a lighter topic.
  • Notes pages should provide sufficient detail to describe and explain the information on the accompanying slide. Slide Design
  • Each slide should endeavor to address a single concept
  • Slides should follow a logical progression, each building on the other
  • Preferably use no more than six lines of text on any one slide
  • Use upper and lower-case text, NOT all caps
  • Choose a colour appropriate to the mood you want to convey
  • Avoid using too many colours (maximum of 5)
  • Use photographs/images to help the audience relate slide information to real world situations (keep in mind that if you use an outside source it is under copyright and permission to use it

must be granted)
