Module 6

Each week you will have a module assignment. The topic will vary depending on our chapter(s) of the week or  hot topics in nutrition. These assignments should be written in essay format, and please be mindful of spelling, grammar, and citations. I expect you to use citation (any style is fine) for resources you draw from – and include a reference list (complete reference, not just a website). Thank you!

 

Module Assignment #6

Watch the entire 45-minute Peter Jennings report titled  and write a 2-3 page reflection paper answering the following:

• Did you learn anything from watching this documentary?
• What was the most surprising part?
• What did you already know?
• Is the individual or the marketing/restaurant industry more to blame for our current obesity epidemic?
• What can YOU do to make changes to this system?
• Has watching this movie inspired you to change the way you purchase food, shop in the supermarket, deal with your children/food requests? 
• Did you watch the movie with anyone? If so, what were their comments, and what conversation did you have with them about it? 

Please include 2-3 direct quotes from the video in your paper. Please note you can also watch this video on YouTube but its broken into 5 parts on YouTube – you need to watch each part (they are each about 8 minutes long). 

This paper is worth 20 points. Please submit in essay format (not just listed answers to these questions) – run a spell check, proofread for grammatical errors and remember these papers are expected to be ~2-3 pages long.
