Using storyboarding to determine components of wellness for university students
1Department of Health Science, New Mexico State University, Las Cruces, USA.
Abstract:
Using a needs-assessment technique called storyboarding to determine characteristics of health promotion and wellness among university students is discussed. Storyboarding allows students to work together as they generate ideas and eliminates the territorial defensiveness that often occurs when new ideas are suggested. Sixteen graduate students in a health education teaching methods course demonstrated the use of the technique to identify characteristics of wellness for university students. In addition, they identified content areas and outlined key programs, services, personal habits, and skills useful for enhancing university students' wellness.
