Narrative Essay: Dissemination phase


  Information, knowledge or opinion was the best material to complete the task or to fulfill others what they want to know more about the topic that they may interest.  Dissemination has a big role of it because without this method you can’t earn some information, knowledge or even opinion. 

In dissemination not only to spread information, knowledge or opinion but as well as to evaluate the findings what we want the come up of the topic that we proposed. So, It is quite important this in research because we can’t do perfectly or successfully meet our goal without this kind of method because usually, or majority  researchers are using this.
There are a lot of ways in dissemination either through the internet, the summary of an article, journal, flyers, or newspapers, etc.. According to the researcher field (Brown & Schmidt, 2009; Dudley-Brown, 2012). There are three primary ways of dissemination and remain as the most popular methods in the nursing field which is known as the three Ps the posters, presentations, and papers. So this category was mention already above.
      
To disseminate has a common method or a step-by-step procedure to caught the stakeholders interest according to a topic that is being  made. So like the RHIhub ( Rural Health Information Hub)  which proposed the  common method or techniques in dissemination, you can check at this link https://www.ruralhealthinfo.org/toolkits/rural-toolkit/6/dissemination-methods .     

Common methods of dissemination include:

  • Publishing program or policy briefs
  • Publishing project findings in national journals and statewide publications
  • Presenting at national conferences and meetings of professional associations
  • Presenting program results to local community groups and other local stakeholders
  • Creating and distributing program materials, such as flyers, guides, pamphlets and DVDs
  • Creating toolkits of training materials and curricula for other communities
  • Sharing information through social media or on an organization's website
  • Summarizing findings in progress reports for funders
  • Disseminating information on an organization's website
  • Discussing project activities on the local radio
  • Publishing information in the local newspaper
  • Issuing a press release
  • Hosting health promotion events at health fairs and school functions
  • Using the 2-1-1 system to publicize available services and resources
  • Submitting information about a rural health project to be included in the Rural Health Information Hub's Rural Health Models and Innovations.
  
 
For me, this would be a very useful method because this would be our basis to what extent that people might have an interest, or love to learn the topic what you like to share. And, it evaluates also your ability and performance on the topic that you wish to be share if it has a good impact on the stakeholders. Therefore, I encourage you to pay more attention not only to the topic what you want to spread or share because the stakeholder will expect also if it is reliable and valid. So make sure you know the roles and the guidelines to disseminate for the desired outcome you want.
