Due date: 8:00pm AEST Wednesday 11 May (Week 9) Location: Assignment dropbox on CloudDeakin unit site This assignment identifies the issues that impact our immediate living environment that matter to us and compares them to what action (or inaction) the local Council is taking to address them. You might even feel inspired to contribute to the positive changes! At2 overview Consider the direct environment where you live – what are the issues relating to the environment and health? What needs improving? (examples to follow) Capture these through photographs (these can be taken on your phone). Review the images you have taken (3-5 would be appropriate – more if you like!) and identify what are the key messages they convey. In other words, discuss: What makes them issues in the first place? Why are they important? (i.e. how are they potentially negatively impacting health/environment – frame your discussion referring to environmental determinants of health) What is your local council doing about the subject? (i.e. refer to their Health and Wellbeing Plans – or equivalent – e.g. reports). What to consider: Essentially, you will take photos within your suburb that tell a story regarding the natural and/or built environment – or a combination of both – and select the best 3-5 images that (to you) symbolise the most interesting messages concerning environmental health. Although you might live in a high-end suburb, it might be easier to focus on what aspects need improving. Students will then refer to their own Council’s Health and Wellbeing Plan (sometimes they have other titles, or even part of the general Council Plan – and sometimes they have very specific sections, such as climate change policy – so read the Council website carefully) and review what the Council has done, or what they are planning to do, relating to the key messages from your images. If you are stuck for image ideas, why not look at the Council Plan first for inspiration? The take-home messages The last part of the assignment asks students to reflect on the above experience and discuss their observations, impressions insights and reactions. A series of reflective practice questions will help guide this section. Introduction /5 A clear and comprehensive introduction, summarising and providing an overview. Images /10 Demonstrates reflexivity/creativity for identifying, analysing, and describing the socio-ecological determinants of health of immediate environment. 1. Please describe what you took photos of (3-5 best images should be selected). (Images should be cut and pasted onto a word or pdf document and uploaded as an Appendix following the main assignment – i.e. one document only to be uploaded). 2. How do these pictures describe your environment? 3. Why are these pictures important to you (subjective observations)? 4. What key messages do your images convey (objective observations)? 5. Do you have any other comments on the images (including any technical approaches)? Images (contd.) Aim for images where you have taken the time to frame, compose, consider lighting (where appropriate), etc – rather than just a point and shoot approach. There’s a YouTuber giving advice that is provided on the guidelines page – but it’s one of many. Review of Municipal (Council) Plan /10 Identifies and analyses the organisation’s impact on environmental issues. Demonstrates your knowledge of course content, including natural and built environments. To do this: 1. Review your local Council’s health and wellbeing plan (sometimes Councils call this document different names – and some Councils also embed their Health and Wellbeing Plan within their Council Plan). 2. Check for content most relevant to the messages of your images (the Council’s plan will typically include aspects relating to the environment – some even include their climate change impact plan, so investigate the Council website carefully). 3. Identify what the Council is currently doing or what it is planning to do in relation to the issues raised and reflected by your images. Lessons Learned /10 Discusses and critically analyses viewpoints, attitudes and beliefs relating to local and global environmental health, nature and sustainability issues. 1. Having completed the assignment, what do you know now that you didn’t before? What have your own conclusions taught you? 2. What was your experience of completing the necessary steps (i.e. sourcing your images, sourcing the Council information – e.g. easy/difficult/interesting/frustrating/satisfying)? Try not to give a superficial response – sometimes the quality of our own approach can dictate outcomes (!). 3. Has the assignment influenced your awareness regarding natural and built environments? If so, in what ways? 4. Now that you have compared the council’s plan in relation to the messages in your images, what is your reaction to their responsiveness (or lack of)? 5. Further observations?

Use this opportunity to explore these aspects; consider what can be used, rejected, modified or retained. Recognise Recognise assumptions that we have made about people or situations Start to unpack some of the beliefs you might hold about individuals or groups. Question where these beliefs might have begun. Question and challenge Question and challenge familiar situations We often don’t question the familiar; we simply move on. Challenging familiar situations requires open looking and listening, and can lead to radical, fresh shifts in thinking. Conclusion What are the take-home messages?

Draw on the multiple resources provided on CloudDeakin to engage with the detail about what is expected. Be sure to refer to the guidelines particularly.
