Assignment:
Review the information on America's Health Rankings website for your state. Keeping all of the elements of health literacy in mind (language barriers, numeracy, reading comprehension, tone, and verbiage), write a press release/news article for the general public on these statistics and what they mean.
Think about your focus: do you want to point out the positives or the negatives? Do you want to enact a call for action or a call to celebrate? Copy/paste your release in the discussion board.
Guided Response: Imagine you are in the community where this article was published. What is your first impression? How would you react? Examine the effective or ineffective elements of health literacy in this article.
