Discuss your topic and check the media items with the unit coordinator prior to commencing.
You will need to:
•    Identify an Indigenous health issue from a social determinants of health approach (i.e. not only disease or illness -  for example the impact of racism)
•    Collect 4 media items in a variety of forms   - this can include newspaper articles, editorials, magazine articles, video clips with transcripts,  online blogs and other electronic articles.

•    The 4 media items also need to be from a variety of sources as much as possible – so not all 4 from the same source for example all from the SMH or the ABC.
•    You must have either a hyper linked or attached PDF copies to assignment.
•    Summarise key issue(s) in the media items collected .
•    Link media items to various models and approaches discussed in the unit modules and readings.
•    Discuss how the media items might affect the current debate and discussion on the issue.
•    Discuss your position and views on the issue as it presented and explore other perspectives.
•    The sources will need to be local, interstate and possibly international. Utilise a variety of sources  in order to assess the breadth and depth of the issue. Using only one source  may result is a biased account of the issue.
•    Please note: material including cartoons, posters, health promotion YouTube clips, websites or academic journal articles and government publications are not media items unless they are discussed and cited as a media release or news item
•    Please check your topic and suitability of the media items with the unit coordinator
