Culminating Project: MVJ Presentation of the Community Health Nursing Concept

Students will be tasked to work in groups. They will be required to conceptualize and execute a presentation MVJ
(creative teaching-learning) style of any Community Health Nursing concept. This must be at least 10 – 15 minutes
long.

Students will be allowed to work on their topic (Example: Primary Health Care) and must express their knowledge
about the concepts of Primary Health Care (PHC) that they’ve learned from the course into a simple role play using
people as their props which can be interpreted by the common people (other individual not enrolled in the nursing
course).

The output of the groups will be presented in the annual celebration of the Mary Vita Jackson (MVJ) program as part
of the program contest for the best presentation per year level. The students should also submit a video tape of their
presentation, with a one paragraph synopsis containing a brief summary of their concept, character, message, etc.

Submission will be on the last week of the 1st semester.
