Project 2 - Students select 2 to 3 choices regarding how they wish to reflect on their learning during Module 1. Please refer to student sites
Project 3 - What is on your plate?
Students selected an individual, and had to record their weight and activity preferences (3 activities they enjoy doing). Students then analyzed a daily meal plan (using the menu available at the DV Clubhouse) for calories in each ingredient. These calories where converted into minutes of activity dependent on the subjects weight. A menu was created from the data that replaced the calories for each meal with the total time that the individual would have to work out, to burn off the meal. Explore the students site for details regarding their findings.
