*remember – this is your final assignment*

The article on Photovoice assigned will illuminate the power of utilizing this technique.  I want you to leave this class with some tools you can use in the future.  Photovoice is a great tool for research, community building, program planning, and policy- making. Images combined with a person’s own voice about a topic can be an important tool for change. You will be taking pictures of what health means to you.  Here is what you need to do:

1.  You will compile 5 photos of things that represent ‘health’ to you… I want you to focus on the key items we have focused on througout the semster, and how you see them represented in your world.

2.  You will provide a summary of each of your photos indicating what and how the photo represents the key item you are focusing on (you need to cleary state this) – and how they represent to you and why you choose it.

How will you know if you have been successful with this activity?

1.  You will have submitted 5 photos

2.  You will have submitted a summary of each photo – indicating what key element they represent and why you choose it.
