GEOP8010 Social Impact Assessment - Macquarie University

Invariably social impact issues are presented to and assessed by non-SIA specialists. They are also presented as one of a large number of documents. Making the point about social impact issues visually is often an effective short cut. This assignment provides an opportunity to explore ways of doing this.

Tasks

i This assignment requires the student to select a social impact issue and explain its importance to a non-professional audience.
ii The presentation should comprise 7 power-point slides. The first (title) slide should state the issue.
iii The following 6 slides should describe the social impact issue & demonstrate why it matters (is important).
iv You may propose a solution to the issue, or make the case for an exercise of precaution, or simply describe the issue. Be clear about which of these you are doing.
