What are the potential benefits of using these kinds of technology?
There are multiple ways to use technology to help develop a healthy lifestyle. For children, it might be in the form of incorporating games into the existing physical education curricula. Adults might use tools such as their FitBits (now there’s even a children’s version), diet apps, or Plant Nanny to monitor hydration, and families might play Zombies, Run! or Pokémon Go.

Instructions:
Interview 1 family member who have had an influence in your life. Make sure he/she is from a different generation from you so you can learn more about your family’s heritage. If you don’t feel close to your traditional family, identify “family members of choice”. We may choose to adopt other people as our families, having closer and more trusting relationships than found in some traditional families.
Come up with a list of questions to ask your family member. As a guideline only, you can start with questions on the Heritage Assessment Tool in Appendix E of the Spector text. Use your knowledge of what you have learned in the previous modules to come up with in-depth questions. The purpose of this interview is to understand you and your family member’s views on health and illness.
In 500-1000 words (about 1-2 pages), tell about who you interviewed and why. Describe what you learned about your familial ethno-cultural heritage and your family’s beliefs are in regards to health and illness. Why do you engage in specific health practices? For example, why would a German immigrant give sick family members hot potato soup? Are there any health practices you have adopted that may be the same or different from those of your family. In your paper answer the following questions:
Who did you interview?
What is your family’s ethno-cultural heritage? That is, what nation(s) did the immigrant generations come to the United States from? What was/is their religion(s)?
What is health to you and your family? Has it changed?
What methods are/were employed by your family to maintain, preserve and restore health? What “home remedies” were/are used? (List and describe some examples)
Do you practice these health traditions? Are there any practices that you do not use anymore? Any health tradition that you want to continue practicing?
How consistent or inconsistent are you with your traditional cultural heritage?
Identify at least one common theme that will serve as the framework of your exploration document. How is the theme expressed in your artifacts?
Overview: Your first step in developing Project Part One for the course is to identify the two artifacts you want to compare and the theme that is common to both artifacts. While you will analyze and compare these artifacts in Theme: Examining the Humanities, you want to make some initial observations. In this step, explain how you see the theme expressed in both of your artifacts. Then, reflect on how the theme itself is connected or relevant to you personally. For example, is this a theme you find particularly inspiring? Has this theme been particularly relevant to a past experience?
Prompt: Choose two cultural artifacts to analyze. These artifacts may take the form of any artistic medium, such as literature, poetry, music, film, dance, painting, and sculpture, and so on. However, it is important to choose two artifacts that have been created by different artists and were created during different time periods (ex. separated by at least 50 years). Then, identify an initial theme (or themes) that is common to both of your chosen artifacts. You will analyze these artifacts and their expression of the identified theme in Theme: Examining the Humanities and Theme: Impact of the Humanities.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Describe the cultural artifacts that you have chosen. Consider questions such as these in your response: What is the name or title of the artifact? Who is the author or artist? What is the date or time period when the artifact was created? What is the cultural location or physical setting of the artifact? In addition, you could consider including a photograph or image of each cultural artifact, if they are visual artifacts.
II. Identify at least one common theme that will serve as the framework of your exploration document. How is the theme expressed in your artifacts?
III. Reflect on how the theme you identified is related to your personal experience. For instance, you could discuss how the expression of the theme in your cultural artifacts is connected to you personally.
Rubric
Guidelines for Submission: Your artifacts and theme selection should adhere to the following formatting requirements: 1 to 2 pages in length, double-spaced, using 12-point Times New Roman font and one-inch margins. You should use current APA style guidelines (or another format approved by your instructor) for any potential citations or references.
