Directions: Each student will be required to write a paper on a Health Promotion Program utilizing a review of one health promotion program or study from the list “Health Promotion Programs List” and develop an analysis.
The following health promotion program questions will guide you in writing the paper:
1. In which setting was the health promotion/prevention program implemented? What was the rationale for the selection of the setting?
2. Was there a theory that guided the program or study? If so, what theory or theories were used? Provide background on the theory using your textbook and other empirical evidence (e.g., journal articles, books)
3. What was the population intended for the intervention? Why?
4. Describe the major issue addressed and provide background regarding its selection. How significant is this health issue? Why should we care about this issue? Use empirical evidence and credible resources (e.g., World Health Organization Websites)
5. What were the results of the program or study?
6. In what ways did the program or study contribute to the field of health education/promotion?
7. In your opinion, do you think this program would work in Nashville (or your home community, specify)? Why or why not? Provide solid evidence (e.g., statistics from the Health Department, programs that are established in Nashville) to support your answer.
