| Discussion/Participation | 100 | 1~2~3 | Week 13 | HOURS= 2000 | The summative assessment is an Annotated PowerPoint presentation or an Academic Poster that critically evaluates health policies and systems of one of the countries of the United Kingdom (high income country) and a low income country as defined by the World Bank, such as Malawi. The selected countries are a personal choice but should be agreed with the module team for formative assessment. The focus of critical evaluation would be one or two health systems' ‘building blocks’ as identified by the World Health Organisation. For example, this could focus on an aspect of the systems such as service delivery, workforce or funding. Alternatively, a health issue and service delivery could be critically evaluated. Annotations should highlight key similarities, differences, strengths, weaknesses, and implications of each policy or system, supported by evidence. More details on the presentation can be captured in the notes section of either the PowerPoint or Poster in addition to the reference list. Examples of potential topics are highlighted for you during lecture and tutorial sessions. The electronic version of the final Annotated PowerPoint or the Academic Poster presentations including the notes section will be submitted online, in the module Moodle and via a Turnitin submission box by week 13 |
