Assignment 8: Question

AND
 ONE of the following behaviours you think need to be change within your selected educational setting: (i)
food/nutrition or (ii) alcohol
Structure your assignment in the following manner:
 PARTA: Name your specific educational setting (be specific i.e. "ABC high school" or "a primary school located in
ABC suburb") and your selected behaviour to change. Describe your specific educational setting and why it should be
targeted using scientific/health evidence. Then explain why your selected behaviour for change is important in your chosen
educational setting based on the best available scientific evidence.
 PART B: Provide a plan for your selected behaviour for change described in Part A using the basic strategies of health
promotion introduced in Module 1 and examples provided in the other modules. No references are required for this section.
