HCC Reflection Paper on Nutrition Course Discussion

NUTR101 Nutrition Reflection #5: Holistic Assessment of Learning Nutrition with NUTR101 (5 points) This is the last of the nutrition reflections you will write. This one is a bit free form, but you need to really consider the work you have been doing in this class, reflect on the experiences and then write a really nice, edited essay that runs 650 words in length. Think about learning that you have done while enrolled in our NUTR101 course. Look over the smart art graphic image on the next page. That helps remind you of the many learning modalities you have been experiencing across our semester. For those of you who really love to write, I will certainly read a longer piece! You should address each of the three areas, content, personal impact and metacognition, in your essay. Here are some questions to help you shape your thoughts before you write this essay. 1) Content — What content and assignments did you find to be most helpful or compelling? Which ones helped you to make connections between this course and the rest of your world? Is it important to you to make such connections? 2) Personal Impact — Have you changed your food behaviors because of being in this course? What did you change? What were the outcomes? For those of you who recorded your waist measurements, what if anything, did you learn? 3) Metacognition — Think over the course and identify the activities/assignments where you experienced the most- and the least-effective learning. Add other ideas and commentary as suits you! What do you observe about yourself as a learner? Reflect on what you did well and what you could do in the future to get a better outcome. Be sure to provide specific details to provide evidence to back up your statements.
