Nutritional Deficiencies: An Individualized Program.
Vodola, Thomas M.
As one of the components of the Project ACTIVE (All Children Totally Involved Exercising) Teacher Training Model Kit, the manual is designed to enable the educator to organize, conduct, and evaluate individualized-personalized physical education programs for obese children (primary through secondary level). An introductory chapter on obesity includes a definition of nutritional deficiencies and student and teacher objectives. Chapter II explains procedures for diagnosing the developmental needs of students. Reviewed in Chapter III are procedures for both objective and subjective appraisal of student performance. Chapter IV shows the interrelationship between the diagnostic and prescriptive processes with sections on skills necessary to individualize instruction, some pretest data and clues to enable the teacher to translate the information into a meaningful program, and information on the role of the teacher and noninstructional variables that contribute to an effective program. Chapter V focuses on the evaluation of student progress at the end of a specific block of time so that a decision can be made regarding subsequent programing. A final chapter describes exercises and activities (either endurance or strength building) structured to provide a cluster of student learning experiences which in conjunction with the proper caloric intake will enable a student to gain, lose, or maintain a body weight that is consistent with body structure. Among appendixes are a list of supply and equipment needs and a nutritional data report form. (SBH)
