What NURS 440 Week 6 Health Education Program Part 2 asks for
Using the PRECEDE model from the textbook, you outline a community health plan and develop a health education lesson plan. Using the lesson plan, you deliver a 30-minute presentation, including a 10-minute question and answer period, at a community venue of your choice. You create a survey and hand it out to the audience afterward, then write a synopsis of at least 500 words on the presentation and survey results, in current APA with at least four scholarly sources. Due at the end of Module/Week 6, 100 points.
Where it fits in NURS 440
In the published schedule, Health Education Program Part 2 is one of 14 graded written assignments in NURS 440. It follows Week 5 Family Assessment and comes before Week 6 Community Assessment Part 3. The same week also has Community Assessment Part 3, so plan the week's writing together.
How NURS 440 Week 6 Health Education Program Part 2 is graded
Liberty grades Health Education Program Part 2 with the rubric attached to the assignment in Canvas, worth 100 points in the published guide. That is about 10% of the course's 1,010 points. Open the rubric before you draft and read across each row: the top column describes what full credit looks like, and the gap between columns tells you what costs points.
Course grades in NURS 440 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 NURS 440 Week 6 method, step by step
Start from the need
Assess the need first. The plan's goals and measures all depend on a clear statement of the gap.
Write measurable objectives
Write objectives that name the audience, the behavior or outcome, the level and the time frame.
Choose methods that fit the objectives
Select the strategies, content or interventions that fit each objective, and say why they fit, citing evidence (At least 4 scholarly sources in current APA).
Plan the resources and timeline
List what the plan needs (people, time, materials, cost) and the order of steps. Graders look for plans that could be carried out.
Plan the evaluation
Tie each objective to a measure and a time point. Evaluation is where most plans are thinnest.
Format and length
Follow the required template or headings and check length (Community health plan, lesson plan and a synopsis of at least 500 words) and APA.
A structure for NURS 440 Week 6 Health Education Program Part 2
Word targets are planning numbers for about 1,100 words of body text, set by the length in the guide; the rubric decides where to spend more.
| Section | What it must do | Target |
|---|---|---|
| Community health plan (PRECEDE) | Social, epidemiological, behavioral, educational and administrative assessment. | ~330 words |
| Lesson plan | Objectives, content, methods and timing for 30 minutes. | ~280 words |
| Presentation and survey | What you delivered and what the survey asked. | ~160 words |
| Synopsis of results | What the audience reported and what you learned. | ~330 words |
A topic angle that works
Use the PRECEDE phases to find the factors you can change in 20 minutes of teaching: predisposing (knowledge, beliefs), enabling (skills, resources) and reinforcing (family and peer support). Design the survey to measure one of them before and after.
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.
Twenty-two older adults attended the fall prevention session at the senior center, and 19 completed the survey.1 Before the session, 6 of 19 said they knew how to make their bathroom safer; afterward, 17 of 19 could name two changes, and 12 said they would ask their doctor to review their medications for fall risk.2 The question and answer period showed the main barrier was cost of grab bars, which points to a partnership with the county's aging services office as a next step.3
