Project Overview: Create a plan for promotion of health using a chosen technology. The project should address a health-related issue (e.g., weight loss, exercise, disease management, mental health, etc.) by promoting a single tool or technology (e.g., wearable device, mobile app, social media, etc.). The project must include a proposal, the intervention design, and a plan for evaluation. Project Components: Introduction and Proposal (35%) Health Issue Identification: Select a health issue and a target population. Describe why this issue is important for your target population. Technology Selection: Identify the technology or tool you will use (e.g., fitness tracker, mental health app, social media platform) and explain how it can help address the health issue. Be sure to include evidence-based methods with cited sources to support your plan. Project Goal: Define the overall goal of your project and what you hope to achieve. *Submission: A 2-3 page paper outlining the health issue, chosen technology, and project goals, submitted as a .doc file. Intervention Plan (35%) Intervention Overview: Provide a simple description of how you will use the chosen technology to engage participants and promote behavior change. This could be a mobile app to track physical activity, a social media campaign for mental health awareness, or a telehealth session plan. Steps for Implementation: Outline the basic steps for how participants will interact with the technology and the timeline for implementing the intervention (e.g., daily tracking, weekly check-ins, or online workshops). *Submission: A 4-5 slide presentation describing the intervention plan and key implementation steps. This presentation may include narration, but narration is not required. Submission should be in the form of a .ppt file. Evaluation Plan (30%) Success Metrics: Identify 2-3 simple ways you will measure the success of your intervention (e.g., increased usage of an app, improvements in health behaviors, participant feedback). Challenges & Solutions: Briefly describe any potential challenges (e.g., low participation, technology issues) and how you plan to address them. *Submission: A 1-2 page evaluation plan explaining your success metrics and anticipated challenges, submitted as a .doc file. Grading Breakdown: Introduction and Proposal (2-3 page paper) – 35% Clarity of health issue identification – 10% Justification of technology selection – 10% Clear project goal – 10% Reference section with at least 3 peer-reviewed sources – 5% Intervention Plan (4-5 slide presentation) – 35% Clear and feasible intervention description – 20% Step-by-step implementation outline – 15% Evaluation Plan (1-2 page paper) – 30% Clear success metrics – 15% Identification of potential challenges and solutions – 15% Submission Guidelines: *Written components should be in APA style, 7th edition. Papers MUST be in TWO separate (one file for intro./ proposal and one file for evaluation plan) .doc files, and Slides MUST be in .ppt file
