00:00:00.360 --> 00:00:03.270
<v ->Hi everyone, and welcome to our very first module here</v>

2
00:00:03.270 --> 00:00:07.560
in Public Health Advocacy in the summer session of 2023.

3
00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:09.870
I'm really looking forward to being your instructor

4
00:00:09.870 --> 00:00:11.400
over the next six weeks

5
00:00:11.400 --> 00:00:13.530
and sharing a course that I developed

6
00:00:13.530 --> 00:00:17.610
after graduating from this very program back in 2022.

7
00:00:17.610 --> 00:00:19.110
This course means a lot to me

8
00:00:19.110 --> 00:00:22.860
as I'm a very big public health advocacy focused person

9
00:00:22.860 --> 00:00:25.200
and everything that I put into this class

10
00:00:25.200 --> 00:00:27.600
was based on my personal experiences,

11
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.330
my work experiences, as well as the experiences

12
00:00:30.330 --> 00:00:32.100
I had with other classmates

13
00:00:32.100 --> 00:00:34.620
during my time in the MPH program.

14
00:00:34.620 --> 00:00:36.990
This week, it's all about getting our feet wet

15
00:00:36.990 --> 00:00:39.540
in the field of public health advocacy

16
00:00:39.540 --> 00:00:44.100
with a little bit of reading and some required assignments.

17
00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:47.250
First and foremost, we have an academic integrity quiz.

18
00:00:47.250 --> 00:00:49.980
This is just two questions, and likely very similar

19
00:00:49.980 --> 00:00:52.950
to any other academic integrity quizzes you've taken

20
00:00:52.950 --> 00:00:55.890
at UVM or in this program.

21
00:00:55.890 --> 00:00:59.610
The next is a required module 1 quiz

22
00:00:59.610 --> 00:01:01.860
that is going over lecture material

23
00:01:01.860 --> 00:01:04.800
that we discussed in module 1.

24
00:01:04.800 --> 00:01:06.930
Next, we have two Yellowdig assignments.

25
00:01:06.930 --> 00:01:09.030
This is unique only to this module.

26
00:01:09.030 --> 00:01:12.420
Moving forward, we'll only have one Yellowdig assignment.

27
00:01:12.420 --> 00:01:14.820
The first is just an introduction.

28
00:01:14.820 --> 00:01:17.520
I'd love if you could share a little bit about yourself,

29
00:01:17.520 --> 00:01:20.160
what you like to do, and where you find yourself

30
00:01:20.160 --> 00:01:22.710
in the world of public health advocacy.

31
00:01:22.710 --> 00:01:25.860
The next is a prompt based Yellowdig discussion

32
00:01:25.860 --> 00:01:28.140
that I highly encourage you all to comment

33
00:01:28.140 --> 00:01:31.050
on each other's peers and learn from one another.

34
00:01:31.050 --> 00:01:33.270
Lastly, we just have an assignment

35
00:01:33.270 --> 00:01:36.330
that is reflective of module 1 material.

36
00:01:36.330 --> 00:01:38.550
As always, I will be available to you

37
00:01:38.550 --> 00:01:41.760
for any questions, comments, or concerns that you may have,

38
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:43.140
as well as being a sounding board

39
00:01:43.140 --> 00:01:45.480
for anything you have a question on

40
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:47.520
in terms of public health advocacy.

41
00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:50.040
I really look forward to getting to know you all,

42
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:51.153
and let's dive in.
