INTRODUCTION TO GERONTOLOGICAL STUDIES
Assignment #2 Demographics Assignment
Approximate Length: 500 words, not including graphs or charts, double-spaced, 12-point font
1. Topic: Older adults and the health care system
2. Begin your search with a general demographic statistic; for example, the number of older adults in Canada who are healthy/unhealthy. Next, collect more specific statistics relating to the topic. For example, this could include men versus women, amount spent annually on health care, variations between provinces, etc. There will be a wide range of statistics to choose from.
3. Find and order your statistics to use successively more specific pieces of information.
4. Begin your paper with an introduction to your topic (50 words).
5. Present your demographic information in the form of graphs or charts (e.g., bar graphs, pie charts). You may make them yourself or cut and paste them into the body of your paper. Create a title for each of your graphics.
6. After each graph or chart, describe in one or two paragraphs what that graphic shows (100 words).
7. From your data (that is, your graphic information as a whole) draw out any trends or themes you can see and write a critical analysis. For example, you may have found connections between gender and certain health care usages, or certain health care options that show most benefits, or a connection between income groups and health. Questions may have arisen for you as you looked through your data. Then, in this example, you would write about the issues that your data show that relate to older adults and health care (approx. 250 words).
8. Summarize the key issues that you have found about your topic, based on the data you have presented. Summarize what you have learned. What was of particular interest to you? What, if anything, surprised you? What recommendations would you make, based on what you have learned? Label thissection, “Summary and Conclusion (approx.100 words).
Use essay format. Include a title page with the course name and number. Include your name on each page and number all pages. If quotes or other references are used from print sources, you must reference each, using APA format and a reference page. Include information about the source for your graphs and charts directly under the graph.
