DQ: Types of community health promotion strategies
Introduction to the Assignment: This project allows you to use course concepts and tools as they relate to a health topic of your choice. You will begin to think of the broader concepts of health and how to discover, research, reflect upon, and respond to them in writing. You can choose any public health issue for the focus of this assignment. The topics can range from public health chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, heart disease and cancer to environmental issues such as climate change, air pollution and ozone depletion or on social public health issues such as poverty, gun violence and incarceration.
Format: Please use a standard 12-pt Times New Roman font, 1 inch margins and double-space your writing. The paper should be a minimum of five pages and absolutely no more than seven pages (but that does not include cover page or references). APA style is expected, and you must cite and reference accordingly. Refer to your APA manual or the OWL at Purdue for guidelines. Please use sub-headings to separate your sections as indicated below under the elements of the paper.
Sources: A minimum of five sources are required. You may use credible, online sources except for Wikipedia. At least two of your sources should come from other sources other than online. The SJSU library website can be helpful in your search. Textbooks from previous classes are also credible resources.
Helpful hints: Please follow the format of this paper in order. Subheadings are important; they help keep the paper organized and makes it easier for us to grade. Please take time to proofread your paper. Make sure what you turn in is complete, free of errors, and the best possible presentation of yourself and your ideas.
