Introduction to Positive Psychology
Assessment: Presentation on Wellbeing Measurement
Task Description:
As outlined in the Unit Profile, Assessment 3 involves producing a recorded audio-visual presentation that examines different strategies to measure/assess wellbeing. The purpose of this presentation is to build critical knowledge about the various ways wellbeing can be assessed and measured in an applied setting/context, and to demonstrate effective verbal communication skills. Place Your Order Now!
Please note, this assessment task must be completed individually - it is an independent assessment piece, meaning that you cannot work with other students to complete it.
You will:
Choose one specific setting/context as a focus for the presentation. (Note that the setting/context chosen for Assessment 3 may be the same or different from the setting/context chosen for your essay in Assessment 2.)
Search the published academic literature to identify different strategies/methods that have been used to measure/assess wellbeing in your chosen setting/context. From this search, choose two relevant wellbeing measurement/assessment tools to investigate in-depth (Please note that opportunities for guidance and formative feedback regarding the choice of measurement tools will be provided via the unit Moodle site).
Plan, prepare, and produce a 10-minute audio-visual presentation recording that describes the chosen setting/context and analyses the two different strategies to measure/assess and understand wellbeing in the chosen setting. The recorded presentation will include camera footage of your face as you speak, along with your presentation slides. The content of your presentation will include the following:
An "Acknowledgement of Country" will form the beginning of your presentation. (Please note, the Acknowledgement of Country transcends grading and is not part of the marking rubric. Its length is also not counted in the 10 minutes allocated for time-limit).
An introduction that provides an outline of the chosen setting/context and justification for why understanding wellbeing in that setting/context is important.
Next, report on two different measurement/assessment tools that are suitable for determining the level of wellbeing of people in the chosen setting/context. A clear descriptive analysis of each chosen measurement tool should be provided (what does it measure, how does it measure this, e.g., how many questions/observations; how scores are derived, etc.), followed by a comparison and evaluation of the quality of each measurement tool for the chosen setting (e.g., strengths, weaknesses, usefulness, reliability, validity).
The presentation will conclude with a summary of the usefulness of the wellbeing measurement tools examined, and recommendations on the best way to use these measurement tools to understand wellbeing in the chosen setting.
A reference list acknowledging all sources referred to in the presentation will be provided as the final presentation slide.
