PPL 3O Culminating Activity

Presentation: Mental Health Disorders

Description: 

Students will further develop their knowledge of mental health issues by researching a mental health disorder and communicating their information and ideas through a visual presentation using Google Slides (or similar program) AND an oral presentation to the class. The visual presentation (i.e. slides) are worth 10% of your culminating activity mark and your oral presentation to the class is worth 5% of your culminating activity mark.

Visual Presentation (Google Slides) Requirements: 

Create a Google Slide Presentation of 6-8 CONTENT slides that outlines important information related to your chosen mental health disorder. Each slide should include well-organized information (title, subtitle, bullet points etc.) and be engaging to your audience (your target audience is young adults ages 14-19). Include visuals on each of your slides (pictures, clip art, graphs, etc.) to further engage your audience and complement the written information about the topic. Please see the presentation content requirements on the next page for specific assignment requirements.    

You should access a minimum of three (3) resources in the research process to gather information related to your topic. You must document all sources you have used in the research process (using APA format) in a Works Cited slide, which should be the final slide of your presentation. You can use Bibme or any other website to create your Works Cited list.

Google Slides Presentations are to be submitted electronically in Google Classroom on the due date.

A brief summary (1-2 sentences) of services provided to help individuals and families suffering from the mental disorder.

         g) Provide a minimum of 3 statistics related to your topic—these statistics can be 
  integrated into the slides of any of the above subtopics or placed on a separate slide.
 
                h)   Provide visuals on each slide (pictures, clip art, graphs, etc.) to emphasize the 
                      information in your Slides.
