Assignment: Technology Advancements HLT 205
Details:
This is a CLC project.
In Topic 2, the instructor established Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) groups. The instructor will monitor team members’ participation in the CLC discussion forums, so all materials and communication should be exchanged in the CLC forum. Individuals who do not participate may be penalized at the end of the assignment.
The goal of this assignment is to identify a technology that can help with treatment advancements, administrative efficiencies, or patient service. Understanding the application of technology and telehealth in health care is critical because this is unquestionably the future of health care.
You must choose a single technology as the topic for this assignment as a group.
Presentation in PowerPoint
Prepare a 12-15 slide PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes for your CLC group that addresses the following:
What aspects of health care are affected by the chosen technology?
What are the costs and advantages of the chosen technology?
What is the impact of the chosen technology on cost, access, and quality?
Could the chosen technology cause cultural disparities? Explain your thinking.
What are the monetary implications of the chosen technology?
Is the chosen technology resulting in more efficient health care? Explain your reasoning.
Include an introduction that highlights the presentation’s main points, a conclusion, and a references slide. In addition to the course
textbook, cite at least four credible references.
Deliver the content in an organized sequence.
While GCU style format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should follow GCU documentation guidelines, which can be found in the Student Success Center’s GCU Style Guide.
A rubric is used for this assignment. Please review the rubric before beginning the assignment to become acquainted with the requirements for successful completion.
This assignment must be submitted to Turnitin. Please follow the steps outlined in the Student Success Center.
You should proofread your paper. However, do not rely solely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part, and your grade will suffer as a result. Papers with a high number of misspelled words and grammatical errors will be penalized. Before submitting your paper, go over it in silence and then aloud, and make any necessary changes. It is often beneficial to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Uncorrected mistakes are preferable to handwritten corrections.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point typeface (10 to 12 characters per inch). Smaller or compressed type, as well as papers with narrow margins or single spacing, are difficult to read. It is preferable to allow your essay to exceed the recommended number of pages rather than attempting to compress it into fewer pages.
Large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are also unacceptable, waste trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced, and have a one-inch margin on all four sides of each page. When submitting hard copies, use white paper and print with dark ink. It will be difficult to follow your argument if it is difficult to read your essay.
