General Information

Overview

This unit will give you a detailed understanding of the influence of race and culture on ageing outcomes. The importance of Indigenous ways of knowing about health and how this relates to ageing will be addressed. You will learn and critically reflect on the historical and contemporary socio-political events and systems that impact the quality of life of older Indigenous people. Human rights and social justice issues will be discussed. This will include developing an informed understanding of colonisation processes and intergenerational trauma. You will research the key differences in health outcomes, including an appraisal of the ‘gap’, between Indigenous and non-Indigenous older people. You will learn about the delivery of culturally competent practice and working together with Indigenous people to promote value and respect for culture.

Task Description

Objectives

This assessment item relates to unit learning outcomes 1 & 2.

(1) Explain the unique determinants that influence healthy ageing outcomes for Indigenous people.

(2) Explain the Indigenous ways of ‘knowing’ about health and ageing.

Throughout this unit the learning tasks within each module aim to ensure you are thinking broadly about the influence of external factors on the health of older Indigenous peoples. This task asks you to critically analyse the efficacy of a current government strategy that aims to address the healthy ageing needs of Indigenous people. To do so you will need to apply your knowledge about the unique determinants of health for Indigenous people, as well as Indigenous ways of knowing about health and ageing.

You will need to select a current government strategy that either does or should aim to address the healthy ageing needs of older Indigenous people. The document can be relevant on a local, state or national level.

This task allows you to evaluate how well the government document considers the current and future needs of the Indigenous ageing population. An additional requirement is to provide solutions for any perceived shortcomings.

You will need to consider the specific needs of this generation, and future cohorts of older people. The purpose of this task is to develop your skills in assessing the suitability of government strategies to account for the diverse needs of older Indigenous people. You will need to consider if the strategy has the potential to promote cultural safety and be effective at what it is aiming to achieve.

Requirements

Tasks:

To begin with you are writing a proposal that will give an outline or summary of your full essay. The proposal is Assessment 1. You will receive feedback on this proposal, and you will then write the full essay. The full essay is Assessment 2. This assessment will entail a critical analysis on the efficacy of a relevant government strategy that aims to address the healthy ageing needs of older Indigenous people.

Preparation:

1. Select a government strategy that has direct implications for older Indigenous people

2. Search for current quality literature (peer-reviewed) on the key determinants of health in older Indigenous people

3. In addition, search for evidence-based literature on how to improve healthy ageing outcomes using culturally appropriate approaches

4. Search for and select quality literature that provides evidence-based information on the efficacy of legislation and policy

Proposal Writing:

1. Write an overview of your essay including your key arguments

2. Include the government strategy you selected and why, along with the determinants of health you consider to be the most relevant and three key journal articles or book chapters you will be using to guide your discussion and support your argument

Task Description

Objectives

This assessment item relates to unit learning outcome 4.

(4) Evaluate the ability of services to meet the healthy ageing needs of Indigenous people.

This task asks you to develop best practice recommendations for providing culturally safe services to older Indigenous people. You may like to make recommendations relevant to your own workplace or area of interest. To do so, you will need to apply your knowledge about the unique determinants of health for Indigenous people, as well as Indigenous ways of ‘knowing’ about health and ageing. Other areas you may like to consider when developing your presentation are the changes associated with ageing, common illnesses and disabilities associated with ageing, along with empowerment and strengths-based approaches to ageing and healthy ageing principles.

Requirements

Tasks:

You are creating an oral presentation that is designed to provide recommendations for culturally safe service provision for older Indigenous people. Create the presentation as if you would be presenting to colleagues who have varying but relatively basic understanding of the needs of older Indigenous people. You must successfully translate knowledge to justify your recommendations. Your colleagues have the capacity to implement the recommendations and you need to convince them of their value. The information and knowledge you have gathered from both Assessment 1 and 2 will provide some good background information.

Preparation:

1. Select an area of service provision

2. Search for current quality literature on providing culturally safe services to older Indigenous people

3. Search for literature on Indigenous ways of ‘knowing’ about health and ageing that you believe will be appropriate to apply to your selected area of service provision

4. Generate best practice recommendations for providing services to older Indigenous people tailored to your workplace or area of interest

5. Communicate with your Lecturer to set up a time and date for your presentation using Zoom (refer to Moodle site) OR you may choose to pre-record via You Tube and upload

Academic Integrity Statement

As a CQUniversity student you are expected to act honestly in all aspects of your academic work.

Any assessable work undertaken or submitted for review or assessment must be your own work. Assessable work is any type of work you do to meet the assessment requirements in the unit, including draft work submitted for review and feedback and final work to be assessed.

When you use the ideas, words or data of others in your assessment, you must thoroughly and clearly acknowledge the source of this information by using the correct referencing style for your unit. Using others’ work without proper acknowledgement may be considered a form of intellectual dishonesty.

Participating honestly, respectfully, responsibly, and fairly in your university study ensures the CQUniversity qualification you earn will be valued as a true indication of your individual academic achievement and will continue to receive the respect and recognition it deserves.

As a student, you are responsible for reading and following CQUniversity’s policies, including the Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. This policy sets out CQUniversity’s expectations of you to act with integrity, examples of academic integrity breaches to avoid, the processes used to address alleged breaches of academic integrity, and potential penalties.

What is a breach of academic integrity?

A breach of academic integrity includes but is not limited to plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, cheating, contract cheating, and academic misconduct. The Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure defines what these terms mean and gives examples.

Why is academic integrity important?

A breach of academic integrity may result in one or more penalties, including suspension or even expulsion from the University. It can also have negative implications for student visas and future enrolment at CQUniversity or elsewhere.
