Students are required to include a minimum of FOUR relevant references to support each discussion. Each portfolio discussion will be marked out of fifteen marks, utilising the following marking criteria provided. Process: The FIVE portfolio discussions are scheduled throughout the semester. Each topic will be released on Moodle at 9am on Wednesday ONE week prior to the submission date. To complete submission of each Portfolio discussion students must: • Submit their discussion to Turnitin • Submit their discussion to the Moodle Dropbox that will be available for each of the five portfolio submissions Students will be advised of their marks for each discussion throughout the semester with final marks posted at the conclusion of the Portfolio assessment Note: Any questions that are not submitted to either Turnitin or through the Moodle Drop-box within this set timeframe will be considered as a fail and marked as ‘zero’. NB: Moodle stamps each submission with both the time and date it has been submitted.

Learning Outcomes: 1 - 5 Task: Ngā Tuhi: Poster Presentation Students will develop a poster and a 20 minute presentation that critically analyses and discusses the following scenario. Scenario: Tuberculosis is a global threat caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and multiple drug resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are emerging across the globe which has put the whole world into a challenging situation. Poster and Presentation: Students will demonstrate their understanding of the issue through a poster presentation that critically analyses and discusses the factors responsible for XDR-TB (Extensive drug resistant-TB) In your poster you must: • Describe the structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with its symptoms in human host. • Discuss the series of immunological responses mediated during infection in human host and relevant laboratory tests to diagnose the condition. • Critically analyse the factors responsible for development of Extensive drug resistant-TB and discuss the strategies of infection prevention and control of Tuberculosis. Your poster should include a relevant title. Your poster may include appropriate visual aids such as diagrams and pictures, tables, charts to support text. Your project must be supported by credible, current scholarly literature. Compile a reference list of resources used in the presentation on a separate A4 page. Question and Answer Session: Following the presentation each student is required to answer at least ONE question that will explore an aspect of the presentation. On-campus students (Group Poster Presentation) Each group has 20 minutes to deliver the poster presentation. Each group member must participate equally in the presentation. There will be five minutes of questions at the end in which each member of the group must be prepared to justify components included in the presentation. Individual marks are awarded for each group member’s contribution to the presentation. The group must submit a copy of minutes of group meetings to demonstrate participation in preparation.
