Students will understand how nutrition impacts their health and how to make informed dietary decisions.

I have a PhD in Public Health and I am a Registered Dietitian. I have been teaching nutrition to college students and vulnerable populations for 7 years.

Assignments will be given to test student knowledge and understanding of concepts introduced. Assignments are not intended to be overly time consuming, but rather a fun way to test their learning. Assignments are listed in the course description area. Assignments include quizzes, discussions, and mini projects.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

I will provided feedback on mini projects. I will interact and further conversation on discussions. I will provide grades on quizzes.

No live meetings, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
