// Instructional materials // The instructional materials that we are going to use to achieve our goals in impacting childhood obesity are a powerpoint presentation, the Wii system, and the Wii Fit Plus. A handout of the power point presentation will be available along with sections to take notes. The presentation will be separated into two sections that will cover all aspects presented in the outline posted in the design document. The first half of the presentation will be solely informational using the power point. The second half will highlight the features of the Wii Fit Plus. As the presentation identifies the components of the Wii Fit Plus, the audience will have a chance to observe a demonstration of a particular component, and then try it out themselves.

The instructional materials will be used as part of a group presentation. A power point presentation was chosen because it is an excellent tool to met the auditory learner and the visual learner combined. In order for the audience to really understand that an investment in the Wii is an investment in a fight for a child's healthy lifestyle, participation must take place within the presentation. This is also be a proactive way to tackle the weakness of group presentations: participation and interest. The audience must try out Wii Fit Plus for his or her self and experience the physical activity that takes place. The handout is a source to take notes so that information that was presented can be recalled later.

// Delivery methodology //

After studying the presentation methods in chapter 9, it seems that the group presentation would work best for this presentation. Although it would require an instructor to make the presentation, we are attempting to persuade our audience to purchase equipment and implement a program for a set number of youth. I my opinion the passion and sincerity of the company can best be served by an in person presentation. Although the weaknesses in this method are the learner’s participation and interest, the instructor can overcome these because it is a sixty minutes or less presentation. The safe-paced learning in this case would not be effective as a company presentation. We want to provide the same information to the concerned parties at once and be available to the audience. Do to the time factor, the small group format is not geared to get our message to our audience. This would be great if we were providing a workshop for our audience. Although the group presentation requires an instructor, it does not require the schools to make any purchases of equipment or rental of equipment to obtain this presentation. It provides an onsite representative to answer questions and it is primarily a briefing on the inherit gains of this program for the fight against obesity. The development of a lesson plan needs to be developed and provided for the instructor. The instructors should keeping in mind that this presentation is to create interest in the Wii Fit in conjunction with nutrition; to improve the health of the student population. The development of charts, graphs and other information to provide strength to the presentation can easily be provide to the audience in a PowerPoint presentation. These materials can be provided to enable the audience to review points made during the presentation and reflect on key points given. The designer could highlight the main points in the handouts to ensure the discussion stays on point. Also the handouts would serve to provide definitions to terms that may not be familiar to everyone in the targeted audience. One of the greatest factors for selecting this method is time. The presentation is geared for thirty to sixty minutes. We must keep mind that there will be questions because the biggest issues in most schools today is money. Being able to express the passion for this program and the effect it would have the learner’s mental and physical well being; determines the outcome of the presentation on the audience. Compared to the other presentation methods this one provides the onsite representative displaying the importance the company (A-Z) places on the Wii fit being used as a key factor in our youth’s health today.

// Instructional Plan // You will put together the elements of the first three stages (ADD) by actually writing your instructional plan using the //Instructional Plan Table//. There is an example provided to guide your task. The table views the instruction from the perspective of the instructor's content presentation and the student's participation. You will need to work closely with the other members of your team to complete this task.
