Using online resources (city websites, school web pages, etc.) and/or “interviews” with experts (emails or calls to your school nurse, family doctor, etc.), learn about how your school and community affect personal health practices and behaviors.
Your research should provide answers to the following questions:
What health-related services are provided in your school and community that relate to disease prevention and health promotion? Describe these services. Include information about vision and hearing screenings, immunizations, etc.
How have these services affected personal health practices and behaviors?
How has technology impacted community health?
Step 2: Create a Slideshow Presentation
Present your findings from Step 1.
Additionally, include the following:
Your personal assessment of how the school and community affect personal health practices and behaviors.
A list of sources used to gather your information.
The slideshow should have at least eight slides with at least one image and one to two sentences of text per slide.
