Part One: Research
Watch a nutritional documentary of your choice.  Examples of films include, Forks Over Knives, Super Size Me, The Magic Pill, and/or Cooked. Please list the resources used at the end of your completed essay. 

Part Two: Documentary Essay
What you must include in your essay…
1. Discuss two to three of the main concerns addressed in the documentary? Do you agree with them? Why or why not?

2. Discuss at least five things you evaluate when determining if information is coming from a valid and reliable source.

3. Using the methods discussed in question two:
  a) What was your overall opinion on the quality of the information provided in this film? In your response you should specifically address the resources used. 

  b) Did you think the information was factual?  How did you determine if the information was fact or opinion?

Please Note:
Teacher note; Do not simply summarize the documentary. I want to see that you can work through the information presented to determine what might be opinion and what might be valid scientific evidence.  I do want to emphasize that this is an essay, so I want your information to flow nicely and to be in paragraph form.
