Assessment Details and Instructions
Purpose:
The purpose of this assessment task is for students to:
· explore the historical development of mental health and wellbeing services in Australia over the last 50 years
· include comment on mental health policies, the recovery process, and mental health service delivery
· include the impact/influence of international directions in mental health strategies (at a national, state and NGO level) on the development of Australian mental health policy and services at the national, state and NGO level
· communicate these explorations using a Pecha Kucha
Process:
A Pecha Kucha 20x20:
· Pecha Kucha 20x20 is a simple presentation format (use MS PowerPoint) where students show 20 images, each for 20 seconds (6 minutes and 40 seconds in total).
· It is a format that makes presentations concise, and keeps things moving at a rapid pace. The images advance automatically and students talk along to the images.
· Also include as additional slides your APA style references for the Pecha Kucha. This means your Pecha Kucha will be 20 images PLUS reference list
· There is no word limit on this task since your words are limited by the 20-second timeframe. Please keep in mind that the usual wordcount for a 20-second na
ation would be around 40-45 words.
· Na
ation for each slide can be recorded onto each slide in PowerPoint. Please ensure that na
ation for each slide is not more than 20 seconds, so that na
ation is not cut off after 20 seconds when the PowerPoint is in slide show mode.
· When you upload the Pecha Kucha presentation, also upload the following documents to the online class space assessment dropbox (Turnitin):
· Signed cover sheet
· Transcript template (see below) inclusive of APA conventions (use MS Word document)
· Ensure the Pecha Kucha presentation has the APA conventions through the presentation and in the end of presentation reference list
The Pecha Kucha transcript template is below. This template is available in the Assessment Folder in the Moodle class space.

Hello there John,
Thank you so much for helping me with this powerpoint presentation.
I would really appreciate it if you could please create the presentation with the photos and references and the words to speak at each slide please.
When I receive the PPT I will record the words that you have put there with my voice, and read what you have put there.
Is this possible?
I really hope so.
