TO PREPARE
Review the Learning Resources on self-harm in adolescence. Conduct additional research on this topic.
Imagine that you are tasked with presenting on self-harm at a professional conference. You need to be able to educate others on what to look for and how to approach an adolescent who is showing signs of self-harm.
Download the Walden University Writing Center’s PowerPoint template from the Learning Resources and use it for this Assignment. If needed, consult the Microsoft resource on recording narration.
SUBMIT
Submit a 5- to 6-slide narrated PowerPoint presentation explaining the indicators of self-harm, appropriate interventions, and follow-up steps for professionals needing to respond to adolescents who self-harm.
PowerPoint slides should present bulleted text on the slides with a full transcript of the presentation in the notes section. Please use the Learning Resources and additional research to support your presentation. Include citations and a Reference slide to document the sources you have used.
