Unit 5: Discussion 1
The discussion points
for this week examine the fertility control methods available and the wide
range of effects of STDs. The study of the STDs certainly illustrates the
need for caution and information by all concerned parties. There are three
discussion topics.
You are required to
post your initial answers your comments on the postings of your classmates are
due on Sunday at midnight. Please be sure that your comments to peers are
substantive; do not simply write "I disagree"; if you disagree, go on
to explain your comment and add your own insights. All initial and follow-up
responses require research and appropriate citations. You should have a minimum
of two postings (one initial and one/more follow-up response/s) for each thread.
The following rubric
will be used to score your discussion postings:
0-3
points |
Only
minimal response given with no elaboration OR failed to complete follow-up
postings |
4-7
points |
Basic
response and follow-up posting; all were clear and relevant, but needed more
detail. |
8-10
points |
All
responses were elaborated, clear, and detailed; complete responses and
follow-up postings. |
Discussion Topic
The best way for you
to decide which type of fertility control is to look at the different methods
available. There are several newer methods of fertility control either
currently in use or near completion of testing. These include: Implanon,
Mirena, Yasmin, Seasonale, Lybrel, NuvaRing, Ortho Evra, Plan B, the Today
Sponge, Yaz, a vaccination and a male pill.
1.
Select two of these methods (from the list
above) of fertility control and compare and contrast these two methods. This
should include active ingredients, mode of action, effectiveness and side
effects.
2.
Describe the advantages and disadvantages of
both.
Try to take a
different pairing from anyone who has posted. Use information from your
textbook and other sources. Remember to correctly cite any source you use and
if you use direct quotes, use them sparingly and include quotation marks!
