Presenting Your Knowledge

Your employer has just called you into the office and has an assignment for you. You have been tasked with creating a presentation that will be used to educate a patient on a recently diagnosed condition. It is your job to create an educational and informative piece that can be understood by the average citizen.

You may select a disease or condition that has been covered in one of the systems discussed in this course (Chapters 1-10). Your presentation should describe the anatomy of the organs, physiology, pathology, and biochemistry involved in their diagnosis. The presentation should also include information about how other organ systems are impacted by the condition.

As part of your final review process, be sure that you have aIDressed the following objectives in your work:
•Identify the major anatomical regions, landmarks, directions and cavities.
•Identify the organs of the body systems studied.
•Analyze the chemical basis of physiologic processes.
•Explain the functions of the body systems.
•Explain the integration of the body systems in maintaining homeostasis.
•Describe the functional relationships between the body systems.

You presentation should be produced using Microsoft PowerPoint. Your work should include a viewpoint and purpose, be written in Standard American English and demonstrate excellent content, organization, style and mechanics within the speaker notes and slide content. Your communication should be highly ordered, logical and unified. Your PowerPoint presentation should not exceed 15 slides. Correct grammar and punctuation are required. Be sure to visit Kaplan’s Writing Center for help on creating PowerPoint Presentations.

The PowerPoint presentation you submit must be your own work. If you borrow ideas from printed sources or from people you have spoken to or heard speak, be certain to cite the sources of those ideas, even when paraphrasing.

Include a separate reference slide that is formatted as per APA guidelines. For information on formatting per APA guidelines, also visit Kaplan’s Writing Center. You must use a minimum of three sources other than your textbook. Medical dictionaries and medical encyclopedias, if used, are not to be counted as one of the three references.
