Topic - Quiet Room in University: A Space to Breathe and Support Mental Health

1. Introduction
2. Why Quiet Rooms Matter for Public Health
3. Public Health Principles Reflected
4. Conclusion

Your poster will be similar to the type of posters often presented at academic conferences. There is a great deal of information available online about designing these presentations. Please refer to them for examples. You will need at least one photo that you take yourself as well as text describing the phenomenon chosen and how it exemplifies Public Health. You may NOT use images or text taken from the internet.

Your group will submit your poster online. You may use MS Word, MS PowerPoint or another common presentation format to present your poster. As you prepare this assessment, keep in mind that your poster should be able to stand alone however. You also have to submitted an individually written text that supplements the content of the poster and explains the representation of Public Health you have chosen and discusses the elements of your poster. The individually written component is required to be submitted as a word document and should be around 300 words in length.

The second assessment task for this unit is a group poster presentation. You will be assigned to a group by your lecturer.

The aim of your poster is to present your interpretation of the statement, "this is Public Health." To address this, you and your group members will identify some object, scene, practice, etc that you feel reflects some principle of the practice of Public Health. This example must exist in your own environment and must be documented in photographs which will appear as part of your poster. For example, waste management is an important aspect of Public Health management, so you might choose to discuss this and represent it with a picture of a garbage can located on street corner outside the University. It is important to think broadly about all the aspects of daily life with a Public Health element and use your ingenuity to choose a topic that may not be recognised generally as part of Public Health.

Your topic must NOT be a Public Health issue (e.g. obesity, poor nutrition, pollution, etc). Instead, it must be an innovation that exists to improve Public Health.
