Dissociative Disorder Presentation

Presentation is 10 minutes with an additional 2 minutes for questions (12 minutes all up). Please generate questions if no one else asks. Also once 10 minutes is up they need to finish and if they have not completed the presentation then they will lose marks for the section they did not cover. That makes it fair for all. There is no powerpoint in the rooms. So they will need to have hand outs on the day. This is how a presentation would occur in a ward with no powerpoint. Quality of hand outs is important and these can be power point print outs or pamphlets. References still need to be in APA style which is difficult with powerpoint so should be on a separate word sheet and given to the tutor in APA style.
Here is a suggested break down for consideration for awarding marks. But you can also think of each section out of 100% ie for sections worth 10 an exceptional presentation would be 9/10 or 10/10, excellent would be worth 8/10 and very good 7/10 and good 6/10 and if they cover it 5/10 or lower if they have missing sections. Reading out from a paper is worth a low mark. Having engaging activities is worth a higher mark.
Introduces self and topic – 3 marks
Who are they? 1
What is this topic and how is it defined in the literature? 1 Why is it of interest to them or important/significant? 1
Discusses contemporary care of the consumer – 10 marks
This is the biggest section and should use the literature extensively to describe aetiology or intervention or evidence for treatment and expected outcomes. I’m just going to say they need to convince you they know what they are talking about and it is not just a copy from a text book. They need to have done a good data base search using SCOPUS or similar. Did they just pick a few articles and not explain why these and not others? How did they manage all the literature to decide what they are going to present? Do they only have easy to access text and have no demonstration of a wider search? This section must be supported by the literature. Did this discussion focus on the contemporary care of the consumer? Some students will have pages of references and others will have very few.
Engages the tutorial group – 4 marks
Did they ask the group questions? Did they have something innovative to show them? Could they answer the questions that were posed to them by you and the group? Did they generate discussion and interest? Did they refer to clinical experience that they have recently had in general or mental health? Did they ask the group about their experiences?
Effective use of hand outs and is on time – 4 marks
Must complete within the 10 minutes an introduction and cover the contemporary care of the consumer. Look at the hand outs they provide and the quality of these. Are these relevant and good quality. Could something else have assisted them to get the message across more effectively?
Bibliography provided in APA 6th edition format – 4 marks
This is a bibliography so can be what they read and not only what is cited as you would expect in a reference list. Please cross through any reference to the lecture notes or to Wikipedia. Then asses what is left. Is it in APA format? If not cross through it and see what is left. Is it contemporary literature from journals, books and Government web pages? Would you trust this literature? PLEASE also only accept this at the commencement of the presentation so you can look at it during the presentation. If the student forgets this they loose 4 marks and it puts the whole presentation into question as it is not evidence based. PLEASE do not award more than 1 out 4 for any list that is not in APA 7th edition
