Mental health and wellness 04 - Anxiety and Depression PSA

On Wednesday, we will sit down as a class and we will do a critique of everyone’s work in order that you can improve the final product for submitting on Tuesday the 16th.


Mental Health is an area of healthcare that is frequently given little attention until recently.


One key piece of mental health and wellness is prevention through public education.


Your assignment is to create a pamphlet, series of slides or video outlining one of the following areas in mental health promotion.


  • Jerry-Seinfeld-KathrynWheat.com_.jpgCoping techniques for stressful situations.
    • Test taking
    • Social situations
    • Public speaking
  • How to deal with chronic bullying.
  • How to help a friend who is being abused or in an unhealthy relationship.
  • Techniques to recognize and cope with depression.
  • The physiology, signs and symptoms of bipolar disorder and how it is treated.


Your target audience will be high school students such as yourselves.

You may work in pairs or threes if you are producing a video, may work in partners or alone with the slides and can't work with a group if you are making a pamphlet.


Please include a separate sheet of references for everything.
