Talk:Principles of Public Health Practice

Where is this heading?[edit source]

Principles of Public Health Practice is part of the Community Health project on Wikiversity. This year (2014), we are simply moving the existing course into Wikiversity, and changing what we can toward it becoming a course that can be studied on Wikiversity, no matter your location or circumstances. We are doing this for a number of subjects and projects, all found on the Community Health page. Leighblackall (discuss • contribs) 01:20, 30 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The following assignments will be used to assess you have turned these learning objectives into learning outcomes.

Below is a photo exhibition however it got me thinking about assessments. I think our MHW ones are pretty good but perhaps for PHP next year we could alter one assessment as a photo + short essay on why they believe it to be a public health issue? Like the activity they did in the first week but make it more formal - but done in class?
