Monthly Social Media Tracking- 6 Slide Presentation -by Assigned Region (Asia) and Disease Burden
The goal of this assignment is to gain in-depth knowledge of one disease across different regions around the world. Peer review through the assignment tab and posting via the discussion page facilitates student sharing around various diseases and approaches to address it.
PowerPoint Parameters:
The student PowerPoint presentations should be a total of 6 slides, 5 dense content slides and one reference slide.
Slides should summarize the following: disease mortality and morbidity, programming to halt the disease, the political landscape, health technologies and potential for greater global threats in the future.
· Slides 1-2) the country and regional disease rates: morbidity and mortality due to the disease
· Slide 2-3) the realities of programming to address the disease burden: What programs are implemented? What are their impact?
· Slide 3) the political landscape and multiple perspectives regarding the disease burden: What do Ministers of Health, Politicians, Doctors think of the disease and the health system or country’s ability to address it ;
· Slide 4- 5) health technologies to reduce the disease burden; and, national and global level implications around that disease burden. (what will happen with the disease in the future? Will it spread or increase morbidity and mortality in the next 5 years, in 10 years? What is the potential for it to increase in more countries due to global travel? Is it a threat to national security in some countries?
· Slide 6) minimum 5 numbered references and links to original sources of information (credible sources often come from .gov or .edu or a scientific journal- should be no more than 5 years old)
Each slide should be filled with many graphics, quotes and facts (only one picture or quote per slide is insufficient).
TIPS FOR COMPLETING YOUR PPT:
1) Search on Google to identify social media by your disease burden/ issue and the region of the month(Asia)
2) Report on treatment systems/ guidelines, technologies, programming, political landscape and national and global level implications of the disease burden issues
3) Check out the many websites hosted by key development stakeholders mentioned in lecture 2 on Fundamentals of Global Health: look at donor web pages, foundations, organizations posted on assignment discussion page and in lecture and course home page
4) Be sure to provide a link to all materials in a reference slide to cite the source of your information
5) PPT slides should include lots of information, quotes and pictures- (not just one per slide!)
1) The title slide does not count as a content slide- you need 5 full slides (and that is only a minimum – why not go the extra mile and do 6 slides to be sure to do well) plus your reference slide
2) When covering a geographic region that means you should include information on the entire region- not only 1 country. Here is an excellent example of a slide that focuses on a region for MCH from a student in your class:
3) Peer reviews must be done in the RUBRIC- per assignment guidance and notices in order for Canvas to record them. You can get help on this from Canvas support if you can’t follow the guidance.
4) Answer ALL of the questions/ focus on all areas detailed in the assignment guidance- see here:
· Slides 1-2) the country and regional disease rates: morbidity and mortality due to the disease
· Slide 2-3) the realities of programming to address the disease burden: What programs are implemented? What are their impact?;
· Slide 3) the political landscape and multiple perspectives regarding the disease burden: What do Ministers of Health, Politicians, Doctors think of the disease and the health system or country’s ability to address it ;
· Slide 4- 5) health technologies to reduce the disease burden; and, national and global level implications around that disease burden. (what will happen with the disease in the future? Will it spread or increase morbidity and mortality in the next 5 years, in 10 years? What is the potential for it to increase in more countries due to global travel? Is it a threat to national security in some countries?
· Slide 6) minimum 5 numbered references and links to original sources of information (credible sources often come from .gov or .edu or a scientific journal- should be no more than 5 years old)
