Be sure that you are following the forum posting guidelines as outlined in the document. 300 words minimum per question (there are usually two questions so that means you should be writing at least 600 words). Your first post is due Sunday at 11:59 PM, your reply post is due by Tuesday at 11:59 PM.
1. Are competitive sports “healthy?” Take some time to address both sides of the argument before sharing your opinion. While this is largely an opinion-based question, your opinion must be supported by logical arguments, facts, and concepts from the materials.
2. What are the pros and cons of “elite youth sport?” Do you believe sport specialization is beneficial?

For this assignment, you are to conduct a thorough exploration of a specific topic related to childhood obesity. This may revolve around a discussed line of research, a policy intervention, a novel evaluation technique, or a comorbidity. Please select from this list of potential topics provided below.
Clinical Severity of Childhood Obesity
Screening of Childhood Obesity
New Clinical Guidelines for the Treatment of Childhood Obesity
Strategy/Strategies for Combating Stigma
Intergenerational Transmission of Obesity
Linking Childhood Obesity to T2DM, PCOS, Heart Disease, or another condition
Interventions Addressing Schools
Interventions Addressing Home Life
Interventions Targeting the Built Environment
Deep Dive into an Anti-Obesity Pharmaceutical or Surgical Technique
Instructions
Your task is to carry out a comprehensive literature review of your chosen topic and compile your findings into a 20 slide powerpoint presentation.
Your presentation should be organized into the following segments:
What is known? Begin by providing a comprehensive overview of the existing knowledge base around your chosen topic. Present the current facts, understandings, and consensus in the field.
Why do we know it? Discuss the supporting evidence and research studies that have led to the current understanding of the topic. Include key studies, researchers, or methodologies that have contributed to this knowledge.
What remains unknown? Identify and discuss gaps in the current understanding or limitations in the existing research. What questions remain unanswered? What areas require further exploration?
How does it change the outlook and/or perception of childhood obesity? Finally, discuss the implications of your findings for the overall understanding, perception, or treatment of childhood obesity. How does this knowledge contribute to our approach to managing, preventing, or understanding childhood obesity?

This research project culminates in the submission of a research paper, presented in APA 7th edition format. Each student must submit their own paper to Canvas (convert from Word to PDF before submitting to preserve your formatting).
Within the paper, there are several sections which are written and graded as a group. These group elements contribute 40% of the assignment grade and are the:
– Abstract
– Method
– Results
The individual sections contribute 60% of the assignment grade and are the:
– Title page
– Introduction
– Discussion
– References
The group sections are expected to be the same between group members. However, the individual portions are to be written individually and should not be the same between group members.

Reflect on the diverse topics we’ve explored throughout our Childhood Obesity course. As you think ahead, consider what you believe should be the primary priorities in addressing childhood obesity over the next ten years.
As part of your reflection, you might address questions such as:
How might the media’s influence on perceptions of obesity evolve or be directed?
How could we create better opportunities for care and support for children and families dealing with obesity?
What strategies could effectively address health inequities in this area?
What treatments and interventions do you see as most promising, and how could they be promoted or enhanced?
Be sure to reference specific modules from the course in your response, and explain why you’ve chosen the priorities you have. There are no right or wrong answers—this is an opportunity for you to consolidate your learning and articulate your vision for the future of childhood obesity prevention and treatment.
The purpose of this assignment is to recap the semester with your own vision of what they future should hold. Please use at least 5 of the attached sources!!!!
