This document outlines a project by respiratory therapy students to promote asthma awareness. The project will include distributing informational mini-brochures and playing an illustrative video at a local mall on Asthma Awareness Day. The students will explain asthma definitions, pathophysiology, management, and demonstrate proper use of asthma devices. They request funding and equipment for tables, a projector, stands, brochures and banners. The students are divided into groups focused on public representation, equipment, brochure creation and distribution, and administrative tasks to ensure a successful event.
iCamp: How might we help people to understand about Mental Health?
This iCamp was a particularly emotional one. During an iCamp, participants share their experiences. The men and women in the room shared real stories of mental health struggles that impacted family members, friends, and themselves.
The room was part brainstorm, part group therapy, as people spoke about the difficulties of finding the right care, of being targeted by judgemental people in their communities, and of the emotional toll of dealing with a loved one that was struggling, for example.
One story that was particularly striking involved a participant telling the story of how it took her family twenty years to find the right care for her family member.

Also a video will be playing with a student illustrating the content. The scene will be composed of 4 stations (to prevent crowding) and every station has a separate profile and tasks, also there will be two banner stands, one banner has information about our university and particularly our collage and program, the other is a big banner stand for graphics and picture related to the occasion behind the students.<br />Group B: consist of 6 students, they are brochures’ content writers (both Arabic and English), brochure designer and brochure publishers (aside from the brochures that are already on the scene), the publishers will be responsible for distributing the mini brochure outside of the assigned location at the entrance gates to attract people to the scene, designer will design and edit the brochures (by adding layout or pictures or changing the font to whatever is appropriate) using computer software (photoshop, etc…).<br />Group C: consist of 4 students and their job is to bring the necessary equipments and to do the necessary tasks, for example some students will be responsible for printing the brochures, and other students will be responsible for bringing the brochure stands, tables, projector, and respiratory devices. <br />Contest: <br />We’ll do a contest in which we’ll ask questions to the audience, after that we will randomly select 5 persons out of the people who answered correct and award him/her with a free dinner coupon.<br />Back up students: some students will act as a backup if anything goes wrong, for example if a student couldn’t make it to the scene another assigned student will fill up his position, or if the load on a student was beyond expected, another student will back him up .<br />Thank you <br />Done by Batch 2 RT students<br />
