You will be creating up to 2 COVID-19 related Health Educational Materials (a poster or brochure) for your community (one for children in middle school and one for elderly). Each poster or brochure = 5 instructored hours. No more than 10 hours in total. Your product must be for various target groups. For example, if you create one poster and one brochure for children, you will only get 5 hours. However, if you create one brochure for elderly and one poster for children, you will get 10 hours. If you create one brochure for children and one for elderly, you will get 10 hours since each brochure will contain different content and level of health literacy.
INSTRUCTION:
Read the “Health Literacy Guide: Making Client Resources Easy to Use and Understand” document. Pay greater attention on page 14-21- Health literacy guide(2017).pdf
Health literacy guide(2017).pdf – Alternative Formats
Find the brochure/poster templates which you like. There are some free templates on various websites. Google it. You can also use MS template or Powerpoint template which you can choose the layout as you see fit (e.g., 3 column layout).
Create a health educational material such as poster or brochure on COVID-19 info (e.g., facts about COVID-19, symptoms, preventive measures, vaccines, vaccination rate (12 years old and above), and what do to after vaccination).
If you want to do covid-19 related poster/brochure, think creatively and send a message to decrease the vaccine resistance.
You may choose another public health related topic for your materials. If you are not sure whether the topic is acceptable or not, consult your instructor.
Check readability level of each material. Flesch Kinkaid Grade level cannot exceed 6, and Flesch Reading Ease score should be above 60 (explained on page 17 of the attached document).For MS 365, this link explains how to check the readability- https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/get-your-document-s-readability-and-level-statistics-85b4969e-e80a-4777-8dd3-f7fc3c8b3fd2
