Assignment Title: Nutrition Education for College Freshman

What I learned: 

This assignment taught me how to gear my material to the audience that I am presenting to. I also learned about great ways to increase water intake. 

Reflection to assignment:

This assignment was great because it gave us a way to help college freshman with their beverage choices. I felt that we were assisting the students because most had not had prior knowledge of calories they consume from beverages and caffeine’s effect on your body.

Relevance to the profession:

This assignment is applicable to the dietetics profession because It shows that I comprehend how to present nutrition related material to a certain population. It also helped to improve my public speaking skills, which will be a benefit when I have to give presentations to foodservice staff, the community, etc.
