There are 30 students in NUR 330 (online class on global women's health) working on a final paper about health as a right or as a privilege. The due date for the rough draft is 11/10, final version 12/4.
The students are supposed to pick one of three assigned case studies to read and analyze. Then they're supposed to find 3 sources that support points that they'd like to make in their analysis: "journal articles, books, organizational websites, etc" from the past 5 years
I've only worked with one of these students so far. The assignment objectives helped:
the student will analyze perspectives of the concept of health as a right or a privilege considering health issues in a population of women, policies, and available resources
I asked the student what health issue the woman was facing and she said barriers getting prenatal care. So we searched for sources about barriers/access to maternal health/prenatal health care.
I started in CINAHL b/c I'm a huge fan, but I did some behind the scenes searching in
- ProQuest Central
- PubMed (sort of helpful for global public health but can be overwhelming)
I haven't made a libguide for this course. Most resources that I'd use are on the
NUR libguide
As with any referral, gather contact information and whatever context you can (course number, details about what's needed for the assignment). I should point out that the intern who referred this chat to me did a great job!! Sent the entire transcript, woo hoo.
Thanks,
Lea
