Program codes for diet analysis to be given out in seminar grade comment box

Hello all,

You will get the code for diet analysis in your seminar grade comment area. If you do not have a grade, I will still put your code there. It will always be there for you.

This code (DAPLUS-xxxxxxxxxx) is what you will use to begin tracking your diet in the Diet Analysis + program in Unit 2. Once you create your account be sure to write down your username (Kaplan email address) and password so you can continue to access it throughout the course. You can only use this code one time to create an account. Please do not use the code issued with your textbook. If you have any problems please contact me.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Dr. Kathy

Link to chart for food intake in google docs - Better chart. I sent an email with it too.

Hello all,

Here is the link for the food chart for unit 1. It is located on Google docs and will always be there. I like this one better as I added a discretionary food column. My class liked it better last term too.

Here is the link: http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AazBCXqvJUuwZGY4OTI1OG1fNjc4bTQzdjVkZw&hl=en

Hope this helps.

4. Use the following questions and guide to help you develop a post
a. Expand on the other post
b. Ask for more information
c. Act as devils advocate
d. No less than 50 words- guideline not to count each word
e. Add websites
f. Asking questions for critical thinking
g. Add spice to discussion board- correctly- just as a devils advocate
h. Move the topic along
i. Not moving the discussion forward rather than time factor

5. Use the following questions to help you think of a new response to a peer.
a. Is your message factually accurate?
b. Is your message original? If you copy or paraphrase another source, you must cite it.
c. Is your message relevant to the issue being discussed?
d. Have you taught us anything new? [This is very important!]
e. Does your message engage others to want to participate in additional discussion?
f. Is your message written in academically appropriate fashion? [With no "chat" lingo, no spelling errors, no grammatical errors.]

Welcome and Information

I want to welcome you to this Blog. I will be using this all term in order to update you on what is needed for each unit. I also will have some overall guidelines for how to get the best grade on everything you do in the course.

You can post here or email me in the course. I will respond quickly!

I used this type of communication last term and it is wonderful for everyone. It allows you to have a history of notices and emails to go back to. I put all important information here- emails too.

I will always advise you to come here if you do not know something.

I also recommend, that if you have a question, rather than emailing me, post it in the General Question Area in the course. I can GUARANTEE you are not alone with the questions.

Glad to meet you all!!!!

Fondly,

Dr. Kathy
