Writing Essays: Understanding the Topic



1. Ensure you understand the terms in the topic

Good health care is the right of all Australians. How does the state of Aboriginal health care relate to that of non-indigenous Australians? Why is this so and how can this situation be addressed so that there is parity across all segments of Australian society? Discuss.

  • Good is a very subjective term. What is considered 'good health care' for one person may not be the same for another so you may need to define what you consider to be 'good health care'.
  • In this topic, the terms are not complicated but you would need to ensure that you knew the meaning of such words as parity and indigenous (in this case, a dictionary is all you need).
