How HLTH 380 Week 3 Website Evaluation is graded

Course grades in HLTH 380 use Liberty's point scale: an A is 900 to 1010 points of the course total. Missing the length or source minimum usually costs points on several rows at once, which is why the checklist below starts with them.

Timing in the published guide: Each course module/week (except Module/Week 1) begins on Tuesday morning at 12:00 a.m. (ET) and ends on Monday night at 11:59 p.m. (ET). The final module/week ends at 11:59 p.m. (ET) on Friday. Check the due dates in your Canvas section, which govern.

The HLTH 380 Week 3 method, step by step

  1. Set up the data before the write-up

    Do the calculations first and check them. Interpretation built on a wrong figure loses more points than a missing paragraph.

  2. Show the method

    Name the method and the reason it fits. One or two sentences are enough, but they must be there.

  3. Report the results plainly

    Give the key figures in a labeled table and mention each in the text.

  4. Interpret in the context of the question

    Translate the numbers into a conclusion about the question. Say what decision they support and how confident you can be.

  5. Name the limits

    Name the assumptions and limits. A result with its limits stated reads as professional.

  6. Submit the files the guide asks for

    Submit every file requested and check that formulas, output and the write-up agree (Two evaluation forms and two narratives of at least 1 page each).

A structure for HLTH 380 Week 3 Website Evaluation

Word targets are planning numbers for about 900 words of body text, set by the length in the guide; the rubric decides where to spend more.

SectionWhat it must doTarget
Site 1 evaluationAuthority, accuracy, currency, usability.~220 words
Site 1 narrativeHow it helps an older person.~230 words
Site 2 evaluationThe same criteria.~220 words
Site 2 narrativeHow it helps an older person.~230 words

A topic angle that works

Choose sites with clear authority (the National Institute on Aging, Medicare.gov, an Area Agency on Aging) and judge usability for an older reader: text size, navigation, plain language and phone alternatives.

Model paragraph with notes

An original paragraph written by our desk to show the register that earns full rubric credit. It is study material: learn the moves, then write your own.

HLTH 380 Week 3, sample narrative paragraph

Medicare.gov's plan finder lets an older adult compare drug plans by entering her own medications and pharmacies, which can save hundreds of dollars a year.1 Its weakness for an older user is complexity: the tool assumes comfort with forms and drop-down menus, so many seniors will need a family member or a State Health Insurance Assistance Program counselor to use it well.

  1. A concrete benefit.
  2. Judged for an older user.
  3. A practical workaround.
