You are a community health educator and you have been tasked with developing a presentation to be given in a setting to educate an audience on one specific kind of diabetes.

Identify your audience. Examples include the following:

  • Senior center
  • Middle school
  • A Workplace

Create a 350- to 700-word resource as a way to share this information. Examples include the following:

  • A social media page
  • An information pamphlet
  • A presentation

Consider the best method so it is crafted in an appropriate and understandable way for your identified audience.

Choose from the two following options, which kind of diabetes you’ll be reporting on: 

Option A: Type I

  • How society views diabetes (what society thinks it is versus what it actually is, common beliefs and practices)
  • Signs and symptoms
  • Compliance with treatment regimens
  • Impact on health care resources

Option B: Type II

  • How society views diabetes (what society thinks it is versus what it actually is)
  • Preventive measures
  • Making the right decisions to live a healthy life
  • Compliance with common beliefs
  • Impact on health care resources
