In your report, you must include a discussion that includes the following points: 1. Describe the practice change – the practice change must be informed by the evidence that you have collected. This evidence can include the articles used in assessment 2 and other articles/evidence you may have found. We suggest a minimum of 5 primary research articles. (800 words) 2. Discuss the need for the change in practice in the self-management of asthma. (400 words) |

(500 words) As this is a report, you should include an executive summary (150 words); this is placed at the start of your report. References, headings and incidentals (150 words).

Your ‘pitch’ will be uploaded as a verbal presentation. Your pitch can be delivered in any way that conveys your ideas but should summarise the practice change and why this is important. You may use voice over PowerPoint or use a combination of speaking directly to the camera with images, music or other creative video production techniques. You may use any video software e.g. iMovie or Windows Movie Maker. There are also free online video editing websites. References are not required for the pitch presentation. |
