Introduction

The purpose of this team oral presentation is for several members of your department at the healthcare organization you work for to inform the staff on several types of environmental pollution and how this pollution affects human health. The goal is to provide information that staff can use to determine potential environmental causes of patient health complaints. Therefore, the presentation should use Standard English and have a highly developed and sustained viewpoint and purpose. Using college-level communication skills, the presentation should be logical, unified, and highly ordered with superior organization from beginning to end. In addition, be sure to use exceptional oral delivery techniques in the voice recordings, which includes proper word choice and oral expressiveness, and superior content, organization and style. You should be leading your audience toward a dynamic and supported conclusion that will equip them with the introductory knowledge needed to determine if environmental causes have contributed to patient health issues.

Instructions

Before the start of Unit 4, your Professor placed you in a team. During the Unit 4 Discussion, you had the opportunity to divide the presentation sections among the team members. This includes:

• One team member to serve as a moderator who is responsible for setting up a shared folder in Google Drive for the team to use, providing an overview of the entire presentation, introducing each speaker, making a concluding statement and putting the finishing touches on the completed presentation. This person should be highly organized and very familiar with Google Drive and Microsoft PowerPoint.
• One team member to research and create section 1 of the presentation on air pollution.
• One team member to research and create section 2 of the presentation on water pollution.
• One team member to research and create section 3 of the presentation on land and soil pollution.
• One team member to research and create section 4 of the presentation on radiological pollution.
• One team member to research and create section 5 of the presentation on noise, aesthetic and light pollution.

By Saturday of Unit 5, each team member should attach their completed section of the presentation, including speaker notes and oral voice recordings, to their team’s thread in the Unit 5 Discussion.

Any changes to the presentation need to be made and uploaded to the team folder in Google Drive by 11:59 pm ET on the Sunday of Unit 5 to give the moderator time to compile the presentation. Individual late submissions will not be included in the team presentation and will be assessed separately.
