self
1. I feel that I did well on my first compendium, the two quizzes, and the ethical issues essay.
2. I think my second compendium could have used more time, and I dont feel that my lab project was as in depth as it could have been unfortunately.
3. I think my overall grade should be an A for this unit because I feel that I did everything the same in these projects, but improved on the things that were mentioned in my review for unit one.
4. In the next unit I am going to try to focus on condensing the material for the compendiums, so that I can spend more time on the lab project.
unit
1. The most interesting part of this unit for me was definetly learning about nutrition, how much the foods we eat impact us on a day to day basis and long term.
2. Looking back through the chapters I can't think of a time when I was really confused or distanced. This unit was easily understood for me, still a lot of work though!
3. I felt that the ning network was really helpful, i was having problems and i looked on the main page and someone else was having the same problem so i had my question answered without even having to ask!
4. the most confusing thing for me was just about my blood pressure! nothing anyone else did confused me. I will be following up on that in the next few days.
5. I was very intrigued when learning about the heart, I had no idea how it was designed and how it worked, it was really interesting and surprising for me.

Lynn, Great work on this unit. I really appreciate your personal approach to things and the great job on being compelte on all the assignments. Where is the growing organic produce co-op in Prescott ??? that I don’t know about…the town’s not that big, so…maybe you should put something about it on our forum on the Ning network if you haven’t already—good propaganda/advertising for a primed audience! I’m glad you’ve found that network helpful and I’ve appreciated your contributinos
COMPENDIUM MAJOR TOPIC ONE: OXYGEN, MICROBES, IMMUNITY:
I thought both compendiums basically look fine…great in fact. Nice choice of images, good table of contents, the information is good…
COMPENDIUM MAJOR TOPIC TWO: NUTRITION:
Maybe a bit more about basic nutrition and nutritional content of foods—proteins, carbs, etc. in this one.
LAB MAJOR TOPIC ONE: BLOOD PRESSURE
Great job on this lab…defining a question, getting the data and analyzing it well.
LAB MAJOR TOPIC TWO: A DAY OF FOOD
Is this a full day of food—looks like just breakfast to me…but maybe that’s all you ate! You seem to have a good idea about the nutritional content of the food you eat—protein vs. carbs—and what works for your metabolism
LAB PROJECT: EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY:
Great job on this. I liked all the photos, the trends in the data are clear in the graph and you do a good job analyzing this. You might have thought of a couple of other things that might have affected your data, like the order you did things in…taking your own blood pressure is always a challenge! Generally nice job.
ETHICAL ISSUE ESSAY: WHAT IS FOOD:
I really enjoyed your essay and your sister’s story is truly inspirational with asthma such a rapidly increasing problem, especially for kids! How great that she was able to work through all of that! Again, maybe you should do some advertising for her co-op!
