ACS110_Promote Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Cultural Safety_ Assessment 1 ACS110_Assessment _1_Brief_ Digital Storytelling_Module_4.1 Introduction In a diverse society, we live, work and associate with people from a variety of backgrounds. This is no different in a hospital, healthcare settings and other settings. Therefore, health professionals must understand the dimensions of diversity and demonstrate inclusive practice and cultural safety. Similarly, all people should feel safe to talk about their own unique world views and cultural values without feeling less important than others. Cultural safety is a way of working rather than deep specific knowledge about individual cultures. One of the principles and critical aspects of cultural safety, is that you are able to reflect on your own cultural beliefs. Self-reflection is defined as giving serious thought to one’s own character and action. It is about self- awareness, being aware of how our own beliefs and values, families and community influence how we interact with others. It might include activities such as peer review, feedback from colleagues and clients, debriefing, or one-on-one supervision. As such, this assessment asks you to reflect on how your opinions and views may have been challenged so far in this subject in relation to your learnings about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. You will discuss the things you have learnt and areas you believe you still need to address. You are asked to present your personal and reflective opinions and thoughts in a reflective digital storytelling piece.

ACS110_Promote Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Cultural Safety_ Assessment 1 ACS110_Assessment _1_Brief_ Digital Storytelling_Module_4.1 Summary Watch the recording for Assessment 1. This assessment requires you to engage with an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander person, by watching a recorded message and considering the importance of storytelling, communication and your own cultural competence with regard to Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people. The recording you watch acts as the start of a conversation between you and an Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander person, from which you must begin to consider your own level of cultural awareness and cultural competence. After you have watched the recording, you then need to use a digital presentation tool such as PowerPoint, Prezi or an alternative form of presentation software capable of including sound, image and text in its files; to create a 7-minute digital story that addresses the points below. Please refer to the Task Instructions for details on how to complete this task. See the section on digital storytelling below the instructions for some tips on how to produce your presentation. Task Instructions To complete this assessment task, you must submit a 7-minute digital presentation. Your presentation must be 10 slides in length and include the following (one point per slide): 1. Two points about how your own culture (one key point), and other people’s cultures (one key point) impact work practices. 2. Two (2) points indicating how you could ensure your own work practices are grounded in awareness of your own cultural bias. 3. An explanation of how diverse the Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander cultures are, including at least four (4) points. 4. One (1) point on how each of the following may affect Indigenous approaches to healthcare: o Indigenous culture / traditions before settlement o The impact of European settlement o Loss of land and culture o Importance of law and kinship. (PE 2) 5. Identification of two (2) critical issues that influence relationships and communication with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people. 6. Two (2) examples of ways to improve communication with Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people who may be clients or colleagues. 7. One (1) example each of how the below issues affect Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people and their engagement with community services and health systems. • impact of European settlement • loss of land and culture • racism and discrimination • past and present power relations 8. Provide two (2) points outlining how your own culture, and western systems and structures, might impact on Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people and their engagement with services. 9. Outline one (1) example each of how trauma impacts on an individual’s ability for: • decision making • communicating • understanding • retaining information. 10. List three (3) ways to involve Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people in the planning and delivery of services and programs. ACS110_Promote Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander Cultural Safety_ Assessment 1 ACS110_Assessment _1_Brief_ Digital Storytelling_Module_4.1 Digital Storytelling A digital story is a form of communication where people present information using a digital format. It can be created using digital presentation software with images and sound recorded over the top, or may be constructed through film, digital imagery or audio. You will need to capture and share knowledge and experiences by collecting and digitally displaying photographs, video, animation, sound, music, text or narrative voice in relation to personal experience in relation to the points identified in the task instructions. You can be very creative through this process. Digital story telling is a tool used to encourage and stimulate a deeper and relatable form of reflective learning (Sandars, Murray and Pellow 2015). Digital storytelling appears to offer a useful approach to promote reflective learning and understanding concepts at a deeper level. This is essential in the area of cultural safety. Steps to writing a digital storytelling piece: Steps to follow Instructions Step 1 Decide on the story you want to tell Don’t get caught up trying to convey all aspects of your thoughts or all your ideas – this is a relatively short piece so think small and focus. Step 2 Gather your materials Start collecting materials. The most powerful images are often those that are simple but hold emotional resonance. Step 3 Begin writing your script Start jotting down ideas. Play out a rough story in your head. Sketch out a script that you will be able to refine to a story that you can record with your own voice. The script needs to express your attitudes and opinions and can include images and music. Look for a narrative arc for your script. All stories have a beginning, middle and end. The beginning tells the premise of your story: it sets up the dramatic tension that should hold throughout the story. The middle outlines conflicts along the way. The end is the destination, revealing a small discovery, revelation, or insight. Remember that the pace of the story is important. The rhythm and tempo of a story is what sustains an audience’s interest. When you think you have finished read your script to a friend or colleague. This will help you firm up the language or provide some constructive advice. While you are writing your script, you may find it helpful to ask yourself: • Is the purpose of my story clear for my audience? • Does my story flow? • How can I use images, rather than words, to tell my story? • Are there any errors with grammar or use of English? • What is the title of my story? Step 4 Prepare your equipment You will need a laptop, desktop, tablet or phone with a camera and microphone and video software application (or you can use the voice over function on PowerPoint). (See more information below). You will also need a quiet location, or one appropriate to the subject. Some people get self-conscious about talking to an audio device. Maybe you could use a friend to assist by ‘interviewing’ you about the subject. Step 5 Create a storyboard This is a way of plotting out the sequence of events in your story in a more visual way. This way you can clearly see that the visual materials clearly align with your voice over (script). You can create your story board on two levels: 1) Time – what happens in what order? 2) Interaction – how does the voiceover and music work with the images or video? Consider how the images work with the script. A handful of good images makes a more powerful story than a scattered collection of random images that fail to connect to the voice over. Look at successful digital storytelling works to get a sense of the rhythm, pace and economy of scale. You might be surprised how few images are needed to convey a story.

Step 7 Record a voice over Your microphone built into your laptop, desktop, phone or tablet should suffice. Test it for sound quality. Above all, speak slowly in a conversational voice. Try not to sound as though you are reading from a script! Step 8 Add music if you want to If adding, choose music that evokes the rhythm and pace as well as the content of the story. Step 9 Edit your story Expect to spend a few hours editing the story to ensure you have got it right. You will want to check the script corresponds correctly with any visual
