Assessment Overview
Assessment Grading
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%). Consult the University’s Grades and Results Policy for more details of interim results and final grades.

2 Written Assessment
This is team work assignment. As a nursing student, you will frequently participate in team work. Team work aims to assist in the development of appropriate knowledge and skills to effectively work within a team. Teamwork is integral to all clinical environments and outward-bound nursing experiences. Teamwork is effective when fluid communication, collaboration and commitment to achieve best outcomes occurs.
Assessment 2 provides you the opportunity to develop and apply effective teamwork skills. The assignment aims to assist you to understand and acknowledge the challenges that teamwork may generate and to identify the necessary skills to manage the encountered challenges.
For this assignment, you will need to work in teams of four. If you have not formed a team by week 6, contact the unit coordinator who will allocate you into a team.
Background
Your assessment relates to the rights of all individuals to access adequate health care. Lower availability of services is a recognised health risk factor and a determinant of poorer health. Affordable and timely access to health services can prevent illness and can cure, stop or slow the development of, or make more bearable, illnesses or chronic conditions.
The task
As nursing students, you will provide primary health care assessments in a variety of settings. To understand the challenges of accessing healthcare you are to work as a team of four to prepare a PowerPoint presentation with an audio component. Each of you will be responsible for individual components of the presentation:
Student 1- you are responsible for
1. Discusses the population distribution in Australia including main ethnic groups, culture and religions. Identify an ethnic minority or disadvantaged group in this country that will have poorer health outcomes.
2. Describe the health care system in Australia (e.g. private, public, mixed etc.) including Australia’s total expenditure on health per capita and any differences in health expenditure between urban areas of Australia and regional and remote areas of Australia
Student 2 – you are responsible for
1. Discuss the main health issues experienced by children, women and men in your urban areas within Australia, explaining the causes of these conditions.
2. Describes these issues as experienced by children, women and men within regional and remote areas of Australia.
Student 3 - you are responsible for
1. Describe barriers to accessing healthcare within regional and remote areas of Australia.
2. Discuss how these barriers may influence health education delivery to individuals and cultural groups in regional and remote areas of Australia
Student 4- you are responsible for
1. Describe two programs OR strategies to improve access to healthcare within regional and remote areas of Australia.
2. Discuss how these two programs OR strategies could improve health care access
in regional and remote areas of Australia.
The total presentation must be a minimum of 12 minutes in duration and should not exceed 15minutes. Each team member’s audio presentation must be a minimum of 3 minutes duration. An easy guide for the team to achieve this would be to include 4-6 slides per student with an accompanying audio presentation.
· The first slide of your PowerPoint presentation must contain the title of your presentation and each team member’s name.
· A reference list must be included on the last slide/s of your PowerPoint presentation. Any photos, maps, graphs and/or written information used in the PowerPoint must be referenced according to APA 6th or 7th style.
· At least 24 (6 per student) recent, credible and relevant sources are to be used for the presentation (references for photographs/diagrams do not count as part of the 24).
· Peer reviewed literature or reliable government sites no older than 5 years may be used as references. You may also use credible sites such as WHO. Textbooks less than 10 years old may also be used.
Individually, you are also required to:
· Submit a draft (written copy) of your section of the audio presentation (references are not required in the written audio draft).
· Complete the self and peer evaluation/reflection.
Week 12 Tuesday (6 Oct 2020) 12:00 pm AEST
Due midnight Tuesday October 6th 2020 AEST

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. Students who engage in contract cheating also risk being blackmailed by contract cheating services.
Where can I get assistance?
For academic advice and guidance, the Academic Learning Centre (ALC) can support you in becoming confident in completing assessments with integrity and of high standard.
What can you do to act with integrity?
