HCR 406 studies health literacy and health communication, from the communication model and campaign design to patient-provider communication, culture and technology. Most of the term goes into a health communication campaign on a health literacy issue affecting ASU students or nearby communities, and every written stage is sampled here: the short paper, the comprehensive outline, the campaign materials and the final paper, all built around Know Your Plan, a peer-led campaign on health insurance terms.

What HCR 406 is really about

Weekly topics move from defining health communication and health literacy through steps in developing health promotion campaigns, designing messages with theory and patient-provider communication to cultural conceptions and technology.

Students take part in three discussion forums, take three quizzes and build their campaign in stages: a two-page short paper, an outline, campaign materials in a creative format, two responses to classmates’ campaigns and a final paper.

What HCR 406’s assessments ask for

The posted syllabus totals 400 points: quizzes 90, the final paper 80, discussion boards 60, the outline 50, campaign material 50, the short paper 40, peer responses 20 and an introduction video 10.

Where students lose points in HCR 406

Points slip when short papers miss required elements, when frameworks are named but not applied, when objectives cannot be measured, when materials are text-heavy or uncredited and when final papers present hypothetical rather than real formative evaluation.
