Week 7: Discussion-Global and Environmental Health
No unread replies.6868 replies.
Purpose:
This discussion board content is intended to facilitate learning for students through engaging dialogues
as they achieve the desired learning outcomes/competencies associated with their course in a manner
that empowers them to organize, integrate, apply and critically appraise their knowledge to their
selected field of practice.
The use of discussions provides students with opportunities to contribute graduate level-appropriate
knowledge and experience to the topic in a safe, caring, and fluid environment that models professional
and social interaction. The ebb and flow of a discussion is based upon the composition of student and
faculty interaction in the quest for relevant scholarship.
Participation in the discussion generates opportunities for students to actively engage in the written
ideas of others by carefully reading, researching, reflecting, and responding to the contributions of their
peers and course faculty. Discussions foster the development of members into a community of learners
as they share ideas and inquiries, consider perspectives that may be different from their own, and
integrate knowledge from other disciplines.
Activity Learning Outcomes
Through this assignment, the student will demonstrate the ability to:
1. Inspect the relationship between environment and global health (CO7).
2. Appraise global health problems considering WHO SDG’s as well as related epidemiological data
(CO7).
Due Date:

A 10% late penalty will be imposed for initial discussions posted after the weekly deadline regardless of
