Further Guidance: 

1. Poster and Leaflet – we are not looking for excellence in artistic endeavour or design – rather we are looking for thoughtfulness in the design, the message you are wanting to portray and an insight into your chosen client group and what may appeal to them and make them take notice.
2. Posters should be developed on PowerPoint and leaflets in a word document that can be uploaded onto Blackboard (further instructions will be given as to how to do this).
3. Rational Paper :

The purpose of the rationale paper is to explain to your audience the reason why the health issue was chosen, the impact of the health issue on individuals and populations and its prevalence. This will then explain why it is an important area to direct health promotion/public health interventions. The paper will then go on to explore current public health policies in place to address the health issue, your specific chosen population group that you are targeting with your resource and relevant underpinning health promotion theories. You will then outline your key design considerations to ensure that the resource is meeting the needs of the target group and any critique of the final resource.

Management, Work and Society

The rationale paper should not be in an essay format but more in the style of a report. You can use subheadings to aid the organisation of this document. However it is an academic piece and work and we expect it to be fully supported by references.
