1 Australian Catholic University BIOL122 – Human Biological Science 2 Assignment 2 — Vodcast (oral presentation) Student Information Overview of the vodcast assignment Due date: Topic 1 (diabetes) due 18/09/2023, 2:00pm Topic 2 (cancer) due 25/09/2023, 2:00pm Weighting: 25% Length and/or format: 7 minutes Purpose: You will have the opportunity to describe the pathophysiology and pharmacological management for a ‘person/client’ who has either diabetes or cancer by making a vodcast. These conditions have been identified as National Health Priority Areas according to the Australian Institute for Health and Welfare. This assignment will also help you demonstrate effective communication in oral and written English language and visual media. Learning outcomes assessed: LO2, LO3 How to submit: Submit your vodcast online through LEO by the topic due date to the appropriate submission box in your campus tile on LEO. Return of assignment: Marks to be released via the BIOL122 LEO site within 3 weeks of the assessment due date. Assessment criteria: Marking rubric (at the end of this document). 2 Detailed description: • This assessment task requires you to make a 7-minute vodcast presentation (i.e., a video with audio, written text, and pictures/diagrams) about diabetes or cancer. The vodcast will be assessed according to the following criteria: o 1. Coverage (or depth) of the subject matter, which includes the quality of your case and how well your client’s case is integrated into your presentation, o 2. Accuracy of the information, o 3. Clarity of the presentation, o 4. Quality of the scenario created and the presentation o 5. Referencing • Your vodcast has to be about a specific person who has either diabetes or cancer. Your client and their case must be specific to your chosen profession: if, for example, you are a Bachelor of Midwifery student, your case must be about a pregnant woman (or someone who has recently given birth) and the relevance of the condition you are discussing must be evident in your presentation (see example below). Note that 12 marks (out of a maximum of 100) are associated with the quality of your case study and its relevance to your profession (see rubric), and therefore a case study that has no (or has only limited) relevance to your chosen profession will profoundly decrease the total number of marks your presentation may attract. • You will then be required to answer a series of specific questions (listed at the end of this document) that relate directly to your person and the condition they have. All of your answers must be specific to this person, and mark deductions will be applied if your presentation does not relate to the person you have introduced. Please note that the answers to the specific questions should be integrated into your presentation and case study rather than stated as stand-alone answers unrelated to your client. • Vodcasts are expected to stay within the 7-minute time limit. Presentations exceeding 7 minutes will incur mark deductions and will not be listened to beyond 7 minutes and 30 seconds (see rubric). • When submitting your vodcast to LEO, make sure you adopt the following naming principles: SURNAME_FIRST NAME_TOPIC. For example, if John Doe created a presentation on cancer, the file name would be “Doe_John_cancer”. For further details, see checklist below. • You will need to research your topic; please ensure that you keep a record of any references that you have used. • You will be required to write an annotated bibliography containing 5–10 citations as part of this assignment. An annotated bibliography provides information regarding how you used the research to support your assignment. For example, you may have used the following journal article: Roglic, G. (2016). WHO Global report on diabetes: A summary. International Journal of Noncommunicable Diseases, 1(1), 3-8. o This report by the World Health Organisation discusses the global burden of diabetes and provides information regarding the prevalence and incidence of diabetes. 3 • You will need to create your own person (living or fictional) according to the following criteria. You will need to introduce your client at the beginning of your presentation and present information about them that is relevant to your presentation. Information you may want to consider includes the following: o Name, gender, age o Diagnosed condition o Information about risk factors that are relevant to your patient’s chosen condition (e.g. their weight, exercise level, occupation, family history, alcohol intake) o Information about any ongoing treatment or medications taken *Note that not all information presented above may be relevant for your case study and/or other important information may not be stated in the example above. To create your assignment: • It is expected that you use figures or visual aids to enhance your presentation and make it as engaging as possible. • You need to include video of yourself presenting. Presentations that do not include video of the presenter will incur mark deductions. • The Vodcast needs to be your own original work; you cannot include YouTube clips or other videos as part of your vodcast. However, you can generate and include your own video files if you wish. • Please be mindful that it can take some time to upload and submit your vodcast file to LEO; please do not leave your submission until the last minute. All submissions made after the due date/time will incur a late penalty unless you have an approved EX/SC application. • It is your responsibility to check that your vodcast has been submitted successfully and works as intended. Checklist for this assignment ☐ I have chosen a condition from the options provided (diabetes or cancer). ☐ I have viewed the example presentation in the obesity learning activities ☐ I have introduced a person (living or fictional) and presented all relevant information pertaining to their case. My client permits me to clearly and convincingly showcase the chosen condition’s relevance in my chosen profession/discipline, and I have made frequent and meaningful references to my client in my presentation. ☐ I have researched the condition that my person has been diagnosed with. ☐ I have answered all the specific questions, and all my answers are related to my particular person. 4 ☐ I have integrated my answers to the specific questions into my presentation/case study when creating my vodcast. ☐ I have appropriately paraphrased the information I used in my presentation to support my case, and I have added an annotated bibliography to the end of my presentation. ☐ I have read the ‘instructions for recording and submitting your vodcast’. ☐ My vodcast does not contain any YouTube clips or videos other than those I have personally created. ☐ My vodcast is within the required 7-minute duration. ☐ I have named my file in a way that indicates the vodcast topic (e.g., Doe_Jane_Diabetes). ☐ I have checked my submitted vodcast file using a different computer and ascertained that the visual material is working, and the narration is audible. ☐ I have familiarized myself with the rubric. 5 STUDENT INSTRUCTIONS: Diabetes-related vodcast questions You will have the opportunity to describe the pathophysiology and pharmacological management for a person suffering from one of Type 1, Type 2 or gestational diabetes. We would like you to show your understanding by making the links explicit between pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and pharmacological management of your person’s disease. When preparing your presentation, assume that your target audience is health professionals (e.g., nurses, paramedics, midwives; all of which should have roughly the same base knowledge). Your answers to the questions below will be used to grade the ‘depth’, ‘accuracy’, and ‘clarity’ sections of your vodcast assignment (see marking rubric provided at the end of this document). At the beginning of your vodcast, you need to set the scene within the first minute — i.e., tell us about your person, state the degree you are enrolled in (e.g., Bachelor of Midwifery, Bachelor of Paramedicine, or Bachelor of Nursing), and then proceed to answer the following questions. You must answer all 3 questions below: Question 1. A. Discuss the most likely aetiology of the type of diabetes mellitus your client has, including relevant contributing factors. You must ensure that the aetiology you propose aligns with the information you have provided about your patient. For example, you cannot say that ‘obesity is the cause of my person’s diabetes’ when your client does not present with obesity. B. Discuss the effects of the proposed aetiology and other relevant contributing factors on your patient’s insulin production, release, and its binding at target cells. Question 2. If left untreated, your client’s diabetes may lead to a number of complications. Choose either: (i) Retinopathy, and then explain the mechanism of osmotic injury in retinopathy. Please also discuss the consequences of retinopathy for your client. OR (ii) Peripheral neuropathy and the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) in neuropathy. Please also discuss the consequences of peripheral neuropathy for your client. Question 3. You are helping your client manage their diabetes. Discuss ONE most appropriate pharmacological and ONE most appropriate non-pharmacological treatment option for your client. 6 STUDENT INSTRUCTIONS: Cancer related vodcast questions You will have the opportunity to describe the pathophysiology and pharmacological management for a person suffering from either colon adenocarcinoma or breast cancer. We would like you to show your understanding by making explicit the links between pathophysiology, clinical manifestations, and pharmacological management of your person’s disease. When preparing your presentation, assume that your target audience is health professionals (e.g., nurses, paramedics, midwives; all of which should have roughly the same base knowledge). Your answers to the questions below will be used to grade the ‘depth’, ‘accuracy’, and ‘clarity’ sections of your vodcast assignment (see marking rubric provided at the end of this document). At the beginning of your Vodcast, you need to set the scene within the first minute — i.e., tell us about your person, state the degree you are enrolled in (e.g., Bachelor of Midwifery, Bachelor of Paramedicine, or Bachelor of Nursing), and then proceed to answer the following questions. You must answer all 3 questions below: Question 1. A. Describe the physiological structure and function of the cells/tissues your patient’s cancer originates from. B. Discuss possible pathways/mechanisms for cancer metastasis in your patient and describe the most common locations where these metastases may implant. Question 2. Your patient may either present signs and symptoms of advanced cancer or be at risk of developing such signs and symptoms. Choose one of the following symptoms and then (i) describe a plausible mechanism by which your chosen symptom can develop and (ii) explain what your patient can do to mitigate the severity of the symptom. a) Immunosuppression b) Anaemia Question 3. You are advising your client on the available strategies and treatment methods to treat/manage their cancer. Suggest a treatment plan, explain your rationale for selecting the given treatment option, and describe the mechanism of action of at least one element of your chosen treatment strategy. 7 BIOL122 (Human Biological Science 2)—vodcast marking rubric Student name/ID: Marker: 85–100% 75–84% 65–74% 50–64% 0–49% Mark *D E P T H Q1 The answer is complete, and all aspects of the problem are covered in enough detail The answer has only a few minor omissions The main aspects of the question are covered, but the answer should have been more detailed There is one major point missing from the answer The question is not addressed at all, or there are several major points missing /10 Q2 The answer is complete, and all aspects of the problem are covered in enough detail The answer has only a few minor omissions The main aspects of the question are covered, but the answer should have been more detailed There is one major point missing from the answer The question is not addressed at all, or there are several major points missing /10 Q3 The answer is complete, and all aspects of the problem are covered in enough detail The answer has only a few minor omissions The main aspects of the question are covered, but the answer should have been more detailed There is one major point missing from the answer The question is not addressed at all, or there are several major points missing /10 A C C U R A C Y Q1 The answer contains no
