Create an informational resource about your chosen screening tool, such as a video, song, worksheet, graphic, or presentation. Make it easy to read or listen to and understand. You are strongly encouraged to use images and graphics. You and your classmates can save these as study tools.
In your resource, address the following and include two evidence-based sources.
- Describe your tool, including such items as the age range, presentation/symptoms, ease of use, provider- or self-report, and so on.
- What is the reliability and validity of the tool?
- How is the tool scored?
- What constitutes a positive or negative finding or result?
Post your original resource by the end of Day 6. Review your classmates resources, but no response posts are required. Note that you will be graded on your resource, not on the discussion (see the rubric).
Please Note
- You will not be able to delete or revise a post after you submit it. It would be in your best interest to spend a couple of minutes reviewing your post before submitting.
- You will not be able to see anyone else’s posts until you post first. As soon as you submit a post, you will be able to view everyone else’s posts.
