CHE 300 Milestone Three Guidelines and Rubric Overview : The final project for this course is the creation of a n educational health newsletter . The final product represents an authentic demonstration of competency because you will submit one newsletter that is just for your target population and one annotated newsletter that justifies your reasoning for providing certain images, facts, and educational materials that will support the population to make a healthy change. Althoug h this assignment is a draf t of the final project, the completed final project will be submitted during Module Seven. In Milestone Three, you will submit a draft of the newsletter. Be sure to incorporate the peer feedback you received from posting ideas in the small group discussi on. This draft should include as much of the newsletter as you have completed in order to get feedback from your instructor prior to submitting the completed final project in Module Seven. Prompt : Using one of the provided templates, create a newsletter to educate your chosen target audience on a related health issue and attempt to influence their behavior toward healthier choices. You will create for the newsletter a main article, SMART goals, and any other content necessary to appropriately educate your target audience on the health issue. You will also include supporting data and images you find in your research to assist in educating your target population. In both the creation and selection of content to include in the newsletter, ensure the informa tion you use is appropriate, up -to-date, and credible. You must employ cultural competence by appropriately tailoring the communication of the issue to the target audience. Remember, this is a draft of your newsletter ; you will need to make changes suggested by your instructor and peers before you submit the final project. Note that t he rubric for th is assignment does not have an “Exemplary ” column. This column was removed to encourage you to focus on becoming proficient in these areas before submitting the f inal project to be graded using the whole project rubric . Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed: I. Newsletter: In this section , you will create your original newsletter that focuses on a specific health concern for the target aud ience. Use social and behavioral models to guide the creation. Essentially, you should craft information about your selected health topic and commu nicate it in a way that is appropriate for your audience. Remember, the intent of your newsletter is to educate the audience in the hopes of in fluencing their behavior toward healthier choices. A. Models: Use behavioral and social theoretical model s to inform the development of your newsletter. Your instructor should be able to clearly see elements of the models in your unannotated newsletter, but you will also explain how you used the models in your annotated newsletter . B. Cultural Competence: In this section , you should focus on crea ting ma terials that are not culturally limiting, meaning your created materials should not be i nsulting or exclusionary toward any particular culture. i. Language: Communicate the health information to the target audience using audience -appropriate language and design (including font and structure) that is inclusive (does not alienate an indiv idual of a particular culture). ii. Graphics: Utilize images and graphics that are appropriate for your target audience and issue a nd do not exclude individuals from the population. Make sure the images represent the population and that the population can identify with the images. For example, if your target audience is a class of s ixth graders, your images should depict various children , not adults or all males. C. SMART Goals: Create SMART goals for the target audience that will help guide changes in health behavior and be useful in measuring the iss ue’s improvement or changes over t ime. For example, if your health issue is smoking, one of your SMART goals might be for the target audience to buy one pack of cigarettes per week instead of two packs. D. Sources: Employ accurate, credible, up -to-date information as appropriate in your news letter. E. Citations: Correctly cite the credible sources of your health information to ensure that the information in your newsletter will be take n seriously and you are not plagiarizing (which could impede the dissemination of your information to your tar get audience). Use the version of APA style that you have used throughout the course. Guidelines for Submission: The draft of your newsletter should be approximately two pages in length . Use double spacing, 12 -point Times New Roman font, and one -inch margins .
