Nutrition in the Lifecycle Virtual Abstract Assignment Guidelines         Each person is responsible for reading and abstracting a series of nutrition related article for each unit, for a total of 16 abstracts.   Each unit will require one abstract per chapter. These articles are to be related to the material that is being covered in each chapter, so your abstract title should relate to the chapter title for which you are submitting it.  The articles chosen are to be from sources published after Jan. 2010 and you may select two articles per publication. You will need to select articles from 8 or more different publications/internet sites, you may only use a (specific date) magazine/internet site one (1) time. If you turn in two abstracts from the same magazine/internet site (same date), only one abstract will be counted for grading purposes. The body of the abstract should contain the main thought of the article, written in summary form.  All abstracts are to be submitted electronically through the link provided in the "Homework" section.  The most efficient method is to do your abstract in word and then submit the word file as an attachment.   You may not be able to mark your headings in bold if you submit directly through Blackboard.  This will result in the loss of points for each abstract.  The articles chosen are to be from sources published since January 1 of 2010 .  You may select only two articles per publication and they are not to be from the same issue.  This means that you will need to select articles from eight or more different publications and you may only use each magazine/internet site two (2) times.  The body of the abstract should contain the main thought of the article, written in summary form and the last line or two of the abstract should be your assessment of the information presented in the article.  You must provide enough information regarding the article that your instructor can determine you read the article, not just a summary of the article.  It helps to include some specific data/facts from the article in your summary. Sources of articles may be magazines or internet sites. List the publication in the following manner (this is the only acceptable format).  Note that the headings are in bold type and should appear in the same manner when you submit your abstract. Not following this format will cost you points.  Be sure to include the headings in your abstract! Abstract Form (8 headings to be in bold type and included on each abstract)Author:     Title:      Publication or Internet Site:      Date:      Volume or Issue.Body: your summary of the information in the article...include enough information from the article to demonstrate an understanding of the contentAssessment: your opinion of the information in the articleChapter Tie:  how does the content of this abstract tie into the content found in the chapter to which it is associatedScoring/Evaluation:   2 points  Topic: nutrition and subject related                                                            2 points  Content and Structure:  (includes personal assessment, format, spelling, grammar, etc.)  1 point Chapter Tie: how does the abstract tie to the chapter     5 points per abstract Information:1.  If no author is listed by the magazine/site, then state "No Author" when doing your abstract. For Volume or issue, if none are listed you should list the month  in which the article was published.  For articles taken from the internet, you must supply a url. 2.  Newspapers, newsletters, books and pamphlets are acceptable sources of information for abstracts for this class.3.  Abstracts  2,4,6,8, and 10 are to come from recognized professional publications. At the top of the page for each of these abstracts, you are to type PROFESSIONAL on the line before you type the information regarding the source from which this abstract came. If you have a question regarding whether or not a publication will qualify for a professional publication, ASK.  As a general rule, if a publication is available over the counter or by mail to the general public it will not qualify as a professional source.  Professional publications are generally associated with membership in a professional society/organization and are peer reviewed publications with footnotes and sources listed with the article.  If you submit an abstract that is not from a professional publication for one of these abstracts, you will receive "0" points and not offered the opportunity to redo the abstract.4.  In each of the following sections, you are to include the following:Body:   This is your summary of the article.  It is to contain the main points of the article and should represent what the authors are saying about the topic.  It needs to be long enough to cover the content of the article.  Write your own, do not cut and paste!Assessment:   This is a sentence or more with your evaluation of the article. You may wish to compare it to lecture, the text or voice your opinion about the information.  Be sure to support your case if you decide to side with or against the authors.  5.  Abstracts submitted with a publication date prior to the specified will receive a score of  "0" and not subject to resubmission. If a date is not indicated, a score of "0" will be posted.6.  You may use internet sites and resources to find your abstracts. If you chose to do so, be sure to check your sources carefully.  Also, you will need to supply the URL with your abstract so that it can be traced. Use caution in that you are abstracting articles and not abstracts.  In order to be accepted for an abstract, you must be abstracting an article. If the URL does not lead to the actual abstract, you will receive a"0" for the abstract since it is not available to the instructor. Use caution with your URL's. If you are using findarticles.com, the url given may not actually lead to the article....be sure you check it.  Your abstracts are to be your summary of the article you chose to read.Many publications supply abstracts of articles they publish, do not use them.If you copy or plagiarize an abstract at anytime, you will receive a 0 on all 16 abstracts. Abstract Example:  Note the format....what is in BOLD and the organization of the abstract  Author:   John Doe    Title: Nutritional Implications of Herbals  Publication:  Herbal MonthlyDate:   July 2008   Volume:  21  Issue:  3 Body:      This is a study that reviews the impact of herbal supplements on the diets of individuals                who live alone.  The author studied………………………. and the cost of those involved. Assessment:   Through this article I learned about the monetary costs and health costs of herbal                                products and how they affect the individual.Chapter Tie: This abstract supports the information presented in the chapter as it relates to the use of herbal supplements and how people are using them.  Labs There is a link in the control panel for the Virtual Labs.  These labs are outside web sites, many of them are commercial web sites, that contain various activities for you to complete during the course.  If you experience an difficulty with a web site, notify your instructor immediately. At times, some of the sites will not work well from inside Blackboard.  If this happens to you, before you contact your instructor, copy the URL and paste it into your address bar and attempt to enter the lab from outside of Blackboard.  If after you attempt to enter the lab from outside Blackboard, you are still unable to open and complete the lab, then contact your instructor.  Being unable to open and complete a lab does not excuse you from completing the lab.  You will be provided with an alternative lab.  Do not wait until the last minute if you have a problem, or it may delay your progress through the class. There is one lab per chapter and you must complete the lab assignments during the unit in which they are assigned.  Submit your labs in the same manner as your abstracts.  Check "Homework" for a link by which you can submit your labs to be scored.  Scoring of labs is based upon the following:  - following instructions and submitting what is requested  - use the correct reporting format as listed below.  All headings must be included in each lab report and they are to  be in Bold type                              Each lab write up is to include the 5 components listed below. (be sure they are in Bold type) Assigned URL: (what URL did you visit)Review of lab requirements: (summarize what is expected of you for this lab)Lab Data:  1.  If you find a questionnaire or a survey, you are to complete it and submit a summary of what you discovered.  If the questionnaire/survey gives you a summary after you complete it, you are to submit a copy of that summary along with a short paragraph regarding your assessment of the activity that you completed.    2.  If you are asked to visit a web site and evaluate the type of information found at that site, you should review the site and submit a short paragraph of what you found there and your assessment of the site and the activity.  3.  View an on-line video. Most of these videos and will vary in length from 10 to 40 minutes and can be viewed in RealPlayer or Microsoft Media Player. It is best if you upgrade your player before you open or view the first video. I have the best luck using RealPlayer to view the videos.  4.  Additional activities may be assigned as per instructor directionsLab Write Up: summary of what you learned by completing the lab and how it is related to the material in the associated chapter.Evaluation:  your evaluation of the lab and suggestions for change, along with how this lab fits into the chapter it accompanies
