SSC335 – Global Health (2020/1)
Canvas & JIRA Deadline: 20th April 2021
Module Leader: Solomon Afework
You will be assessed in the following way: Case Study (4,000 words as a
guideline)
You will write a case study report to present to the World
Health Organisation (WHO). This will answer the following
report question:
Question: To what extent has globalisation been the cause of
global health problems?
You must include the following in your report
– define what globalisation and global health are;
– evaluate the theories of globalisation which help to explain its
impact;
– critique the theories of globalisation that you use;
– offer specific case studies of globalisations impact on global
health problems, both positive and negative;
– offer a clear conclusion which answers the above question.
This should be written in a report format as if it was to be
presented to the WHO, using sub-headings, images (cited),
graphs and charts and any other useful visual aids such as
infographics.
As you are at level six of your degree, you must show wider
reading than just the lecture and seminar information and that
of the online tasks.
This report is worth 100% of the overall mark for the
module and it assesses all learning outcomes. This report
must be submitted through Canvas and Turnitin.
Deadline: 20th April 2021
Generic Assessment Criteria – Undergraduate Bachelor’s degree
These should be interpreted according to the level at which you are working

Categories
Grade	Relevance	Knowledge	Analysis	Argument and Structure	Critical Evaluation	Presentation	Reference to Literature
Pas s	86 – 100%	The work examined is exemplary and provides clear evidence of a complete grasp of the knowledge, understanding and skills appropriate to the Level of the
Qualification. There is also unequivocal evidence showing that all the learning outcomes and responsibilities appropriate to that Level are fully
satisfied. At this level it is expected that the work will be exemplary in all the categories cited above. It will demonstrate a particularly compelling
evaluation, originality, and elegance of argument, interpretation or discourse.

The evidence provided shows that the majority of the learning outcomes and responsibilities appropriate to that Level are satisfied – for compensation consideration.
30 – 34%	The work examined provides insufficient evidence of the knowledge, understanding and skills appropriate to the Level of the qualification. The evidence provided shows that some of the learning outcomes and responsibilities appropriate to that Level are satisfied. The work will be weak in some of the indicators.

15-29%	The work examined is unacceptable and provides little evidence of the knowledge, understanding and skills appropriate to the Level of the qualification. The evidence shows that few of the learning outcomes and responsibilities appropriate to that Level are satisfied. The work will be weak in several of the indicators.
0-14%	The work examined is unacceptable and provides almost no evidence of the knowledge, understanding and skills appropriate to the Level of the qualification. The evidence fails to show that any of the learning outcomes and responsibilities appropriate to that Level are satisfied. The work will be weak in the majority or all of the indicators.
