HED 340 - Foundations of Health Literacy Practice

3 credits
Health literacy is important across the well-being spectrum, largely affecting the access, understanding, appraisal, and application of health-related information. Yet its widespread deficits represent a significant challenge to the way people interact within the health system, and the health outcomes they achieve. This course will introduce students to broad areas of health literacy and the central role of health information in directing important health-related decisions. Students will engage in case-based, field-based, and simulated learning experiences. They will apply the Health Literacy Universal Precautions approach and other evidence-based strategies to develop and assess print-based, web-based, and face to face health communication.
