Stigmatizing Metal Illness:
Use the internet to find examples of how mental illness is stigmatized in the media.
(television, movies, magazines, newspapers, billboards, music). Stigmas can be
either positive or negative. Your list should have at least 2 positive examples and
at least 2 negative examples. For each example, include a discussion of the effects
that this may have on public attitudes AND the mentally ill. Include the weblink
that illustrates each example.
Canvas Web Activities must be completed by the posted deadline listed on the syllabus.
To obtain any points, the student must complete/submit the activity on Canvas by the posted
deadline in the syllabus.
It will not be accepted late under any circumstances. You will not be able to access the activities after
the posted deadline.
At a minimum…. Responses to activities should be at least THREE fully detailed paragraphs. Each
paragraph should have at least 6-8 sentences. They should be well thought out, organized, clearly
presented and checked for basic spelling and grammar. I am looking to see that you fully understand
and can apply the course concepts.
REMEMBER…. MINIMAL EFFORT EQUALS MINIMAL GRADE (20-30 POINTS). IF YOU WISH TO
EARN THE MAXIMUM POINTS, YOU MUST SHOW MAXIMUM EFFORT AND MASTERY OF THE
COVERED CONCEPTS AND MATERIALS. (Basic grading rubric: Below Expectations: 0-10
points, Needs Improvement: 11-20 points, Meets Expectations: 21- 30 points, Exceeds
Expectations: 31-40 points.) A more detailed rubric will be posted on Canvas.
Points will be deducted for not meeting the basic requirements. Please do not procrastinate.
