Hello! For the question "Explain how Medicare may influence the health status of Australians (3 marks)", how would you structure it? I was thinking about having a brief explanation of medicare, a general statement saying that it increases health status, and an example of how it increases health status (linking medicare to health status indicators). But Engage Wiki suggested that you sjpi;d have a brief statement explaining medicare, a general impact of medicare on health and a link to health status of Australians. This structure is very different from mine, but do you think I would still get the full marks if I wrote it my way? Thanks in advance for all help : )
If I'm understanding you correctly, your structure isn't that different to the one suggested by
the Engage Wiki.
Your structure:
- Brief explanation of Medicare
- General statement of impact on health status
- Example of impact on health status
Engage Wiki structure:
- Brief explanation of Medicare
- General statement of impact on health
- Example of impact on health status
So the only difference that I can see is that your second point links Medicare directly to health status, whilst Engage suggests linking it to health first. For what it's worth, I would personally go with the latter, but I don't think it will make too much difference. But I think linking it to health in general first would better demonstrate your understanding of the interlinking nature of the entire course. For example, improved physical health due to [xyz], which has an impact on health status through [whatever health status indicator you want to use].
I think Engage's response would sort of incorporate your last two points into one (the last one). So yeah, I personally agree with Engage.
