In order to make sure that your WebQuest stays aligned with your unit, you will need to copy and paste 3 things from your Stages 1 and 2 from Dr. Grace's wiki onto this page. (This will also help Dr. Theresa give you better feedback on your Intro, Task, and Conclusion.) Then you will write your first drafts of your Introduction and Conclusion.

//http://sp13class.wikispaces.com/Cheyenne+Mc// =Introduction= It's not news that Obesity has been sweeping our nation. Now is your chance to not only educate people of all ages, but hopefully diminish the number of Obesity cases in the United States.

=Task= March is National Nutrition Month, so in conjunction with First Lady Michelle Obama's Let's Move! Campaign, you and two other nutrition specialists have been asked to create an educational podcast surrounding nutrition. Due to the growing number of children who are classified as overweight and/or obese it is up to you three to educate the United States of the importance of having healthy nutrition habits. You, along with many other Health-related professionals from across the country, will enter your podcast into the contest located on the Let's Move! website. Once the judges have listened to all of the entries, they will select the top three finalists. If you and your colleagues are chosen as one of the top three finalists, you will be flown out to The White House to meet First Lady Michelle Obama herself! While there, you will be competing in front of a panel of judges for the opportunity of having your very own weekly recurring podcast. On top of that, if you and your colleagues are chosen as the winners, First Lady Michelle Obama has decided that she will visit the schools located in your community!

=Conclusion= As Nutrition Specialists you and your colleagues have spent countless hours researching your selves, others, and numerous credible resources so that you could become knowledgeable in dietary health. Through the exploration of what nutrition really is, you have been able to aid each other in the visualization and planning of a healthful diet. As a result of your dedication to nutrition and your strive for a healthier nation, you have educated many people. You can not only explain what a healthy diet includes and looks like, but what it takes to achieve overall nutritional health by creating realistic and successful short- and long- term health goals, as well. I applaud you all, as well as encourage you to continue on your path of becoming a healthier you! Maybe even help someone close to you become a healthier individual.
