Obesity in Philadelphia (Vannary, Ethan, Aaron, Ayoola, and Teige)

For my part of the project, I designed a brochure. The brochure were designed to reach out to the public, specifically the children’s parents and many other adults about childhood obesity. I demonstrated the brochure in a creative and informative key factors of obesity. The brochure advertises ways that can risk the chance of children’s becoming obesity in their early age and resources that can inform the public (parents and adults) to take part in their children’s and/or kids to live in a better and healthier lifestyles. I included a short general background information about childhood obesity, the causes of obesity, prevention tips, treatment/solutions, and a public program in Philadelphia that children’s can get involved to stay active and learn about nutrition values. The effectiveness of this will be determined by the amount of people; teachers and students who catches the attention by the brochure in the hallways. More importantly, since Ms. Martin is now teaching her health classes about fitness and nutritions, I decided to reach out to her and ask if she can share the brochure to her students.


Overall, the process of this project went very well. Every person in the group knew their roles and what they needed to do in order to complete the project. Ethan came up with the idea of creating a tee-shirt with a candy bar in the front side of the shirt that says "Obesity" and along with the nutrition fact label on the back of the shirt. Aaron decided to produced his own song about obesity, and his part in the process was surprisingly impressive to me. Ayoola and Teige were the only ones who I was worried about the most. They switches their idea about the website many times and I was worried that it wouldn’t be completed on time. Eventually they did finished. Overall, the process of the project was very good and well done. My strength and weaknesses has reached upon my weariness. My weaknesses about group projects were communications. Although we had some lack of communication, everyone did what they were supposed to do.
