Project Homework
For the Project, you will prepare a four- to five-minute audiovisual presentation on a health informatics topic that includes the following:
Audiovisual format: To meet the audiovisual requirement, your project must contain something to see and something to hear; however, the format is up to you. Be sure to copy the link to your video, paste it into a Word document and upload the document using the Homework Submission button. Please review the following list of suggested free software:
• Screencast-O-Matic is a freely available online tool that allows you to create and share screencasts. Review the Screencast-O-Matic Quick-Start Guide for more information to help you get started.
• Screenr is a freely available online tool that allows you to create and share screencasts. Review the Screenr Quick-Start Guide for more information to help you get started. You may view the Screenr demonstration video or contact Screenr Help directly for assistance using the software program.
• You may also search on your own to locate a program of your choice.

1. Title page: Include a title page with the following:
• Title of Final Project
• Student's name
• Course name and number
• Instructor's name
• Date submitted
2. Topic: During this course, we explore many different components of health informatics. Pick a topic of interest to you and prepare a four- to five-minute video. This should reflect new information and not be a recap of information learned in this course or another course. Choose one topic from the list:
• Evidence-based practice and informatics
• Telehealth
• Public health informatics
• The evolving ePatient
• International efforts, issues, and innovations related to informatics
• Simulation in health care
• Analytics and design-led innovations and management
• Big data: challenges, opportunities, and realities
• Incorporating mobile devices and sensors into daily routines. The potential impact for mHealth is enormous. For example, an individual might spend 15 minutes or less per year with a primary-care physician, whereas the same person has nearly constant contact with a mobile device.
• Applying clinical care guidelines on, and within, mobile platforms
• Gathering and using data (particularly intensive longitudinal data) to study effectiveness of an mHealth intervention
• Consumer informatics
• Applications of social media in health care
• Biomedical applications based on sensor data
• Chronic disease management and preventative solutions
3. Content:
• The four- to five-minute presentation should be set up as a staff educational session on your selected topic.
• Your presentation must:
o Define your topic and explain its relevance to health informatics.
o Describe any ethical issues associated with your topic.
o Describe any associated laws, regulations, or voluntary standards that are relevant to the topic.
o Explain how the topic relates to or impacts health care delivery, administration, education, data administration, or research.
o Summarize associated data capture tools and technologies.
o Describe a specific example of your topic in use in health care.
Format your homework according to the following formatting requirements:
o The answer should be typed, using Times New Roman font (size 12), double spaced, with one-inch margins on all sides.
o The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the homework, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
o Also include a reference page. The Citations and references must follow APA format. The reference page is not included in the required page length.
