“interview” a health professional
Contact a professional in a health-related field (physician, nurse, physical therapist, personal trainer, coach, PE teacher, dietician, etc.). They must have a formal education for their field which may be from either an academic or technical institution. Try to choose a field in which you are interested, perhaps even as a career. Conduct an interview with them using the questions listed below. If needed, ask clarifying questions to their responses to those questions. The paper should be around 1000 words which is the equivalent of approximately three typed pages. If the person whom you interview gives short answer which may not amount to three pages of information, feel free to ask follow-up questions about their comments. You may also add commentary to their responses in your paper. Please double-space the paper and proof-read prior to submission. 100 points. Interview Questions: What is the name and educational background of the person being interviewed? (They must have a post-high school background in a medical or health-related field. IE – physical therapist, doctor, PE teacher, coach, personal trainer, nurse, etc.) What current trends do you see in the area of fitness and exercise? How should communities and the educational system address the health issues related to overweight, obesity, and a sedentary lifestyle? Ask them at least two student-generated questions.
