This is my Health Program for Final Project.

Obesity may not be seen by some as a serious illness and may cause many illnesses or death. Obesity is a chronic disease which in turn may affect the digestive system in humans and reduce the age of a person. There are studies says” Overweight and obesity are chronic diseases with behavioral origins that can be traced back to childhood”. And I feel that we need to protect the old people from the risk of this disease and provide the necessary health care to avoid getting obese because obesity is more common for heart disease or death.

World Health Organization shows that cases of obese conditions among people are rising and hence, many people are affected either positively or negatively. For instance, studies indicate that by 2016, approximately 1.9 billion people above the age of 18 years were found to be overweight, where 650 million of the totals were obese. More than 13% of the total people with obesity are at their old age. 11% of them are men, while 15% are women showing an increasing number since 1975. Obesity is caused by a lack of exercise that is facilitated by the forms of works and changing means of transport nowadays. Diet is another cause where environmental condition plays a significant role in the changes. From the 2017 data given, the population of the obese people in Georgia State is 11.4% of the adult people (Loh, 2018).

The health program is indented to solve the problem by preventing the disease rather than curing it. Information from the research indicates an increase in the patient’s numbers with obesity in the US who are 65 years and above. The solution will be achieved by creating awareness to the public on the ways they can use to fight obesity from their life before it attacks them. Therefore, some of the solutions offered by the program include the diet people are preferring and how it can be adjusted to ensure that they do not get obese. Exercise and behavior modifications are other areas where the people should regulate in their fight against obesity as indicated by the program (Volpe,2016).

The purpose of developing the program is to come up with a solution that will ensure that patients in Georgia State who are living with obesity change their lives and behavior so that they can control the health problem by reaching every member of the society who is affected.

Program Goals

-To improve the quality of life of the people living with obesity
-To reduce the cases of increased deaths among people who are suffering from obesity

-The survival rate of people who are suffering from obesity will increase due to the change in the eating habits of the people and behavior change.

-To prevent the spread of obesity among the aging population in the State of Georgia

Inputs: AFRI Childhood Obesity Prevention Challenge Area, Computers, Doctors, Funding resource.

Outputs:

Outcomes:

Short. Create of awareness in public areas, exercise, and behavior modifications, before the end of the first year in operation, the program will reach more than half of its target population and share information with them on obesity as a health problem.

Medium. Ensuring diet does not cause obesity among the people, after a year, the patients suffering from obesity and overweight will be advised to practice more exercise and improve their eating habits.

Long. prevent the disease rather than curing it, preparing them for safe adult age, by the end of five years, the people planning on the program will increase the number of programs associated with the control of obesity from this one to three programs

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS

Discussion Questions (DQ)

• Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
• Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
• One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
• I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

Weekly Participation

• Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
• In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
• Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
• Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

APA Format and Writing Quality

• Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
• Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
• I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.

Use of Direct Quotes

• I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly.
• As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content.
• It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

LopesWrite Policy

• For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me.
• Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes.
• Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own?
• Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score.

Late Policy

• The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies.
• Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances.
• If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect.
• I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension.
• As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading.

Communication

• Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me:
  • Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class.
  • Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours.
