BoardWeek 1: Weekly Journal Assignment and Discussion Board

For this week specifically, the topic is: Use of Medications as Part of Health and Mental Health Practice

he goal of the weekly article assignments is for you to make connections between the content of the course and real-world ethical issues, and to integrate what you learn every week into the way you are thinking about an article of your choice. Through this reflection, you will come up with new insights or understandings that you wouldn’t have had before studying this material.

This weekly assignment consists of two parts. For Part 1, you will submit a written review of an article of your choice that you will analyze from the point of view of the topic of the week. You will use the content from class for the week to provide new insights or understandings into the way you interpret the article and what conclusions can be drawn from it.

In Part 2, you will be able to engage in peer reviewed discussion board posts and make the connection back to the reading assignments.

Students will receive an individual grade for their individual assignment
