For Module 5, you are to continue to work with the tutorial at Webmonkey.com. Please read through Lesson 5 [4], and follow its steps for creating chapter 5 of your design document:

• Layout Grids
• Design Sketches and Page Mock-Ups

This part of the tutorial concludes:

“You are almost done. You just need to document the visual design of the site. Create a new chapter in your design document called Visual Design. Document the layout grids, and be sure to include the diagrams you made. Compile the design sketches, and add those, as well as the pictures of the page mock-ups, to the document. Include snapshots from the Web-based prototype, if you can. The design document is now complete, providing a thorough description of the site’s design. It will be useful in constructing the site, for adding content, and in revising the site when the time inevitably comes.”

Please submit your entire Design Document – all five parts, including revised versions of any or all of your first four parts, as well as this new part—in report form as your SLP 5 assignment.

My Health Journal

This week’s course content focuses on the meaning of health and the determinants of health. It is appropriate then, at the start of your program of study, to turn the lens on yourself. Building a better, healthier life is integral to your own well being, as well as to being a role model for others as you work within the health care field.

Throughout this course you will post entries to a health journal. The journal is designed to provide an opportunity for you to personalize course content and consider steps that you can take to improve your own health and well-being. You will submit your summary each week for your Instructor to review.

To begin, select an environmental, occupational, or behavioral change that you would like to make or focus on over the next six weeks.

Write a Â½-1 page journal entry that addresses the following:

• After reviewing the readings about the Dimensions of Wellness, explain what dimension of your wellness do you feel is the most out of balance? How so?

• Construct a 1-sentence goal statement related to a health behavior that falls within this dimension of wellness or dimensions (if it overlaps).

  Example: “In order to improve my emotional and physical health, my behavioral goal is to get more sleep by going to bed an hour earlier each night.”

• What specific steps (2-3) will you take to work toward this health behavior goal by the end of this course?

  Example: “In order to get an additional hour of sleep each night, I will need to eat earlier in the evening and start my course work earlier. I also have a tendency to procrastinate, which means I don’t start my course work until 8 or 9 at night. I need to eat earlier, start on my home work by 6, and then I can get to bed no later than 10:00 pm.”

• What are the health benefits to changing this behavior?

  Example: “By getting more sleep, I’ll have more energy to get through the day, and my mood will likely improve. I think it will improve my emotional health, too, because I’ll be more rested to deal with stressful situations, and I won’t have to panic the night before my assignments are due because I won’t be procrastinating. I may actually do better in my classes, too, because I won’t be trying to write assignments with one eye!”
