Please note that the life course stage older Indigenous adults, 55 years and older will be used as an example in class and will NOT be an option to choose for your assessment.

Using the life course perspective and ONE of the ecological health and wellbeing determinants models discussed in class (Indigenous Determinants of Health model, OR Bronfenbrenner's ecological model), you will reflect on factors that influence the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people at each of the four life course stages listed above. Please note that occupational therapy students can choose to use one of the occupational therapy models or frameworks (e.g., PEOP, Kawa, Kielhoffner, etc.) to use instead of an ecological model or the Indigenous determinants of health model.

Each reflection will be based on a narrative (e.g. book section, book chapter) in the voice of an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person. Some narratives will only include one life stage so you might need different narratives for different life course stages. However, you should use the same model for each of the narratives. A selection of narratives will be provided in the course readings under Assessment Task 1. If you wish to use a narrative not included in that list, please check with your course coordinator (Kathryn Wenham). If you are not from Australia and wish to focus on Indigenous peoples from your home country, please contact Kathryn to negotiate.

Assessment task 1. Structure

Heading 1/2/3/4 (Name the narrative and identify the life course stage prevalent within this narrative)

Include the following under each heading:

Based on each of the chosen narratives (which demonstrates listening to Indigenous voices and perspectives) and the literature (which demonstrates evidence), identify the health and wellbeing determinants most influential to this person at this life stage and how this affects their health and wellbeing. Structure your discussion of determinants according to the model you are using and include both positive and negative determinants of health, i.e. both protective factors and risk factors. To take your analysis a little deeper, you can also reflect on the impact of determinants on the health and wellbeing of the community. Occupational Therapy students can also choose to identify how occupations or performance are also affected.
