Pamphlet addressing non­scientific community and presentation
Addresses Learning Outcome:
?

Recognize risk factors leading to disease and identify preventive measures and treatments.  

This assignment is designed for you to demonstrate your ability to communicate your 
knowledge of a disease in the lay (non­scientific and non­medical) public. You will select
and research a unique chronic or preventable disease during the first two weeks of the 
course. Sources for disease­related topics include the National Institutes of Health 
(www.nih.gov), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (www.cdc.gov), the 
Mayo Clinic (www.mayoclinic.com), and Medline Plus (www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/).
Create an informative pamphlet for a nonscientific community about the chosen chronic 
or preventable disease. Give a brief description of the disease, including its symptoms 
and signs, explain the effects of the disease on the healthy body function of cellular, 
tissue, organ, and organ system levels, relating the effects to the observed symptoms.  
Analyze the risk factors contributing to the onset of the disease and preventive steps 
available to the targeted audience. Describe how a person suffering from the disease 
can maintain a desirable quality of life as well as minimize or slow the progress of the 
disease. Discuss available diagnostic and therapeutic tools and possible outcomes of 
the disease. Describe current research and possible future reserch directions.
You will post the pamphlet in a designated discussion conference by the end of week 7. 
As a presenter and topic expert, you will be responsible for answering classmates' 
questions and reacting to their comments. You will also read classmates' pamphlets and
will have a chance to discuss them during the last week of the class.

At a minimum, your pamphlet should contain the following required elements:
?

to signs and symptoms

References

List all references at the end of your pamphlet. You must use at least five references 
from credible, scientifically rigorous sources and cite them using American 
Psychological Association (APA) style. Two or more references should be from the 
UMUC Library. The references cited should be no older than seven years (published 
2004 ­ 2011).  References should be listed on a separate page that does not count 
toward the required length of the paper.

and pdf preserves the original formatting.

will account for a portion of your grade.
