To help you complete Assignment #3: Final Presentation, you will first submit an outline to organize your thoughts and main points. Your Outline should be formatted in the specified way and must contain the following elements described below.

Be sure to add your name and course number to your Outline.

The Outline Format: Your Outline must be formatted as described and demonstrated by the example linked above – an alphanumeric outline created with MS Word saved as a .doc or .docx file type only. Please note that this format will be assessed in your grade:

Use an alphanumeric sequence

Sections should be indented and aligned

Follow the suggested order of the required topics/subtopics

Use brief but detailed and descriptive phrases (e.g., pain and stiffness in joints, decreased range of motion, swelling, tenderness)

The Outline Content: Your Outline should contain the following topics/subtopics in this order. Also, remember that your Final Presentation (Assignment #3) should only be 10-15 slides, so you need to be concise and clear with your information.

A. Topic selection and reason for selecting

B. Thoroughly define the disease/condition

III. Conclusion Slide – this section must contain four to six bulleted points that sum up all of the main topics/subtopics (statistics/epidemiology, costs, anatomy & physiology/etiology, diagnosis/treatments/prognosis) from the body of your presentation.

IV. Reference Section

Include a final “References” list of a minimum of five (and no more than 10) academically and scientifically credible sources used for facts shared in your Outline. (Not including images or other media.)

Include a final “Media References” list of all images, videos, graphs, audio elements, etc., that you want to use within your Outline.

V. Internal Citations

These are not listed on a separate page but instead placed throughout the Outline via in-text citations anytime you paraphrase, use direct quotes, or want to use visual/audio components from other sources. Therefore, all source material should be cited.

All internal citations listed within the Outline should be included in the reference lists and vice versa.
