Talk:Zombie Response

Where is this heading?
Zombie Response is part of the Community Health project on Wikiversity. It was originally a student recruitment campaign used with school groups. This year (2014), we are simply moving the existing campaign into Wikiversity, and changing what we can toward it becoming a course that can be studied on Wikiversity, no matter your location or circumstances. We are doing this for a number of subjects and projects, all found on the Community Health page. Leighblackall (discuss • contribs) 01:20, 30 April 2014 (UTC)

Development meetings and notes
Critical analysis and suggested edits to Zombie Virus Response test

The following is a review of an element of the Zombie Response project being developed at La Trobe University Bundoora. This project aims to increase awareness among high school students, years 10 to 12, of the Health Science degree run at La Trobe, and its three majors: Anatomy and Physiology, Public Health, and Rehabilitation Counseling. This is done by employing the ‘zombie’ concept to demonstrate how the three majors would work in a public health setting to address a health issue.

A component of this project was the development of the Zombie Response test, where students are run through an introductory video, short readings and multiple choice questions for each of the degree majors. This gives students an insight into what studying and being a health professional in each field may be like. Ultimately this aims to increase knowledge of the La Trobe Health Science degree and provide exposure to the areas and topics of study common to the undergraduate majors; and therefore strengthening the Health Science stream.

The Zombie Response test was created by a team at La Trobe and after running for a period of time is looking to be updated to be more engaging and online friendly. After careful critical analysis of the test, the following consists of the suggested improvements to be made to the Zombie Response test suggested improvements to be made to the Zombie Response test.--Jade Northcott and Phoebe Maude (discuss • contribs) 00:19, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
