Students will complete a Community/SWOT assessment on a community/entity of their choice. Instead of writing a paper, students will complete a SWOT table and give a 5 minute presentation summarizing key findings and insights.

This assignment will be graded based on the rubric provided below (list of questions with assigned point value).  The information reflected in the rubric needs to be expressed in the student's presentation and the SWOT table collectively.  In other words, students can give details regarding their interviews in the presentation (and then are not obligated to provide this information in the SWOT table).

The rubric is attached (see below).

In order to make a SWOT table, please see the following links for examples.  Please design a SWOT table in a Word document and upload this in addition to your video presentation.

Instructions:
The blog post will most likely be a response to the readings, to one of the videos or songs. Or, it could perhaps be a response to the last class discussion. The goal is to read, view, or listen to this content and think about what they mean and how they relate to the theme of the course. What did you think about the arguments? Did you agree or disagree? Why or why not? Did something in the pieces surprise you? Or was there something you did not understand? Did you have something you found in the text that you wanted to discuss further? All of this is fair game. You can also bring in material that was not in the readings and resources from current events or social media if you think it enriches the blog by relating to the question of Black Religion.

Also Note to get some vocabulary from the reading and explain them in your own words.

This semester in Global Health you will choose one country on which to focus most of your writing assignments. The purpose of the annotated bibliography is to help you identify appropriate information sources about the country youll be exploring for your upcoming assignments. The annotated bibliography assignment is an individual assignment, and should include 10 sources. These 10 sources should include peer-reviewed journal articles, as well as reports from governmental agencies (e.g. CDC, your countrys ministry of health), UN agencies (e.g. WHO, UNICEF), and nongovernmental/nonprofit organizations (e.g. Gates Foundation, Marie Stopes International). These 10 sources must include 3 peer-reviewed journal articles and 2 government documents (e.g. guidelines, reports, statistical summaries, etc.). These sources should NOT include encyclopedia entries (e.g. Encyclopedia Britannica, Wikipedia), or online forums (e.g. Reddit, Expat Focus).

You will need to develop an information sheet that explains the similarities and differences between laws and ethics, and the impact of unethical practices on healthcare. An information sheet provides brief and clear information on the required subject. Often, bullet points are utilized in an information sheet; however, since employees will be expected to know and understand the material thoroughly, your information sheet should be more detailed and offer supporting evidence, including a reference list.
The information sheet should give your employees enough information to understand the differences and similarities between ethics and laws, the impact of unethical practices on healthcare, and the importance of professional ethics.
Make sure to use audience-specific language and tone in your information sheet. Remember, you are writing this information sheet for your co-workers; however, the CEO and the Board of Directors may attend.
Be creative, and make your information sheet
