NSCI 2114 PRINCIPLES OF HUMAN NUTRITION Oklahoma State University College of Human Sciences
Department of Nutritional Sciences Spring 2020 Discussion
A discussion is a form of verbal interaction in which individuals work together to consider an issue or a question. The discussion is intended to:
a) Stimulate a variety of responses, b) Encourage students to consider different points of view, c) Foster problem solving, d) Examine implications, e) and to relate material to students' own personal experiences (Good & Brophy, 2000).
In a discussion, individuals may offer their understandings, relevant facts, suggestions, opinions, perspectives, and experiences. These are examined for their usefulness in answering the question or resolving the issue (Dillon, 1994)." (p. 303).

Discussion Instructors: There are four Discussion Instructors and one designated Grading Instructor who will teach and assist with individual discussion sections which are a required component of the course. The discussion instructors will also assist with the course. The discussion instructors’ class times are listed above. To access information for Discussion login, to NSCI- 2114 Principles of Human Nutrition – NSCI –Principles of Human Nutrition in Canvas.okstate.edu. You are strongly encouraged to meet and speak with your specific discussion instructor as soon and as often as possible. However, you do not need to see your specific discussion instructor for help. The office hours are varied and are designed to facilitate
2
the student’s ability to attend any instructor available. To facilitate receiving prompt assistance, you can connect during any of the office hours listed above.
To receive credit it is required that you attend the discussion section in which you are enrolled or an alternative Discussion Section during the week missed to earn credit for Discussion assignments assigned. Any absences affecting completion of an assignment or miscellaneous points must be approved by Mr. Rhone and your Discussion Instructor prior to the date you are absent (such as in the case of known illness) or within 24 hours of missing discussion. You may need to show your Discussion Instructor and/or Mr. Rhone qualified/verifying documentation to be allowed to receive credit for any assignments missed. For excused absences approved by Mr. Rhone, you are required to attend another available discussion class during the week of the missed discussion. You need to have verified Permission to Attend a Different Discussion from Mr. Rhone and your Discussion Instructor. You cannot attend a different discussion without prior consent. This does not apply to Honor’s Discussion, and you must make arrangements with Dr. Joyce.
Assignments Always bring your Textbook, discussion materials posted on Canvas.okstate.edu and calculator to Discussion every week. The discussion assignment pages will be posted on Canvas. Students are responsible for printing the assignment pages out and bringing them to their discussions every week. Please print (before class not during class). Although some assignments will be completed during discussion with the assistance of and additional instructions provided by the Discussion Instructor, some will be completed before class begins. Completed Assignments are generally due the day you attend discussion. Exceptions will be discussed in lecture and discussion. You have to attend the discussion to get credit for the assignment. This rule applies unless otherwise specified by Mr. Rhone and/or your Discussion Instructor. Your assignments must be turned in to your Discussion Instructor, not Mr. Rhone.
All Assignments have relevance! You should (Read all Instructions), and should be neat, legible, stapled and TYPED when specified; correct spelling and grammar are expected on all assignments. If written, the assignment pages should be completed in pencil so that erasures can be made neatly. Assignments are expected to have minimal corrections prior to submission to ensure fair and error free grading. See Policy on Academic Integrity
KEEP A COPY OF ALL DISCUSSION ASSIGMENTS!!!!!!!!
If the assignment is not turned in by the due date. It is considered a Late Assignment. Late assignments are not accepted unless cleared by Mr. Rhone. Approved late assignments will be accepted if Mr. Rhone and the Discussion Instructor are both notified within 24 hours. Moreover if approved, late assignments
3
may not receive full credit and may be down-graded by 50%. If the assignment is approved, it must be submitted by the agreed date of submission. Circumstances occur which may mitigate this policy on notification of absences, illness, or emergencies. An example includes illness or transportation issues which prevent you from attending class when accompanied by physician’s note or other supporting/verifying documentation. Assignments handed in after 24 hours of the due date, without notification or documentation of absence will not be graded.
In case of an acute illness, transportation issues or other qualifying events, it is the student’s responsibility to contact the instructor within 24 hours of class to explain the reason for absence and/or for not submitting assignments on the due date. If it is an existing illness, the student has the responsibility to notify Mr. Rhone and the Discussion Instructor prior to the date of Discussion.
Except when an illness is involved with a physician’s note or other appropriate documentation, assignments handed after 48 hr of the due date will not be graded. Although excused late assignments may be accepted in case of an illness or other important events, It is the student’s responsibility to contact the instructor within 24 hr to explain the reason for absence and/or for not submitting assignments on the due date.

General Course Information:
Lecture: 1. Always bring your Textbook, Lecture Resource Materials posted on Canvas.okstate.edu, and calculator to
every Lecture and Discussion. All Lecture resource material will be posted by 8:00pm of the day prior to lecture. MyDiet Analysis and Catalytic applications are bundled with your textbook purchase or can be purchased directly from Pearson.com and is required for the Course
2. The readings listed for lecture and discussion should be completed and printed before class to help you prepare for lecture and discussion. There is a high correlation with preparation prior to class and success in the course (exams, quizzes, homework, assignments!)
3. Exams: Exam material will come from lectures, discussion sections, materials posted on Canvas.okstate.edu and
the textbook.(You are responsible for all of the information in the text). Absences from Exams are excused only by the lecture instructor (Mr. Rhone). You must speak to your lecture instructor at least one week before the exam date for known absences. You cannot attempt to contact the instructor the day of the exam for an excused absence without supporting verifying documentation.
4. Exam Reviews will be conducted by Supplemental Instruction.
Exam material will come from lectures, discussion information, Canvas.okstate.edu supplemental
materials, and the textbook.
8
5. You are required to bring your own undamaged, unblemished, functional Orange Scantron sheet (100 questions)
and a Number 2 pencil to each exam. Scantron sheets will not be provided for the exams. Directions for completing the Scantron will be discussed before the first exam and will be posted on Canvas.okstate.edu.
6. Make-up exams: Make-up exams are only allowed in special circumstances (family emergencies, illness with a Doctor’s note or appropriate documentation). They are not at the discretion of the student and are required to be completed within one week of the original exam. To take a make-up exam for known absences, you must be cleared by the lecture instructor at least one week prior to the exam date.
The tentative days are all on the days prior to the regularly scheduled Exam. The dates for excused make-up Exams are January 28(Exam I), February 11(Exam II), February 25(Exam III), March 10(Exam IV), April 2(Exam V) and April 16(Exam VI). The times and locations for excused make-up exams are TBD. All other requests for make-up Exams will be made at the discretion of Mr. Rhone and you may have to schedule with the OSU Testing Center (for a fee) within one (1) week of the scheduled Exam. If the Exam missed is not completed within two weeks, students will forfeit the opportunity to complete and will have an opportunity to earn the equivalent points of (1) exam during the Final Exam.
7. Only calculators !!!!! (No cell phones, PDA’s, I Phones, etc) can be used during exams.
8. The Printed Textbook has Visual Chapter Summaries for Each Chapter. They are found at the back of each
Chapter. It is highly encouraged you review them for preparation for each exam.
Tutorials: The NSCI 2114 Interactive Tutorials are available online. These tutorials may help you understand various nutrition concepts. The URL address for the tutorials is listed below.
http://nutrition.okstate.edu/index.htm
9. Policy on Attendance: Attendance is expected and important for success in both lectures and discussions. Although attendance is not mandatory for lectures it is required to receive points in Discussion. You will receive miscellaneous points in lecture and miscellaneous points in discussion. Your attendance is important for understanding the course material and for earning points from miscellaneous quizzes and assignments in Lecture and Discussion. Miscellaneous points that are assigned during lecture and discussion are not available for make-up if: 1) Your Learning Catalytics device does not connect 2) Your Learning Catalytic device is not present 3) You Do Not have a University Approved absence (Illness or tardiness does is not approved)
Vacations, Planned Excursions, Homecoming or other Athletic Events, Fraternity and Sorority Events,
Employment and Stressful Situations are not considered excused absences!!!!!
10. Policy for Final Exam Schedule Conflicts: As found in the Spring Schedule book, University policy will be followed when conflicts arise in final exam schedules or when a student has 3 or more finals on the same day. Conflicts are resolved on the basis of:
a) Credit hours in the courses, with the course carrying the most credit hours taking precedence.
9
b) Time of first class meeting in the week (as printed on the student’s class schedule), with the class meeting first taking precedence.
c) Student should submit request in writing at least 2 weeks prior to beginning of final exam week. d) Student must provide copy of class schedule.
10
11. Incomplete Grades - Beginning with the Fall 2008 semester, when an instructor determines that a student is eligible for an incomplete (‘I’) grade, he or she also specifies an 'incomplete final grade' which is a default grade the student would receive if the student does not complete the remaining coursework within the specified deadline. Incomplete grades are reflected on the official transcript as simply an ‘I’ until they are changed to a final grade. According to current policy, a student must “have averaged ‘D’ or better” in the work to date to be eligible for an incomplete grade.
Course Points and Evaluation
• Six Exams (65 pts. each) 375+ 37.5% • Final Exam (Comprehensive) 125+ 13% • Miscellaneous Lecture 50* 5% • Miscellaneous Pre Exam Quizzes 50 5% • Assignments (discussion) 360 36% • Discussion In-Class Activities 40*** 4%
Total Points 1000 points 100%
*Miscellaneous points/on-line quizzes (lecture) are not available for make-up. These points are earned in class for attendance, participation, on-line quizzes and other activities using Learning Catalytic. You will not get credit if you miss class or technical difficulties. Each class is worth variable points and will be assessed starting January 17, 2020 You can miss classes and still earn the 50 lecture miscellaneous points. The remaining lecture miscellaneous points (50 points) will be for on-line quizzes.
If required you may need to download the Respondus Lockdown Browser from http://www.respondus.com/lockdown/information.pl?ID=423632156 in order to take the on-line quizzes.
*** Lecture in-class activities are generally not available for make-up. These points are earned in Lecture and the Lecture instructor will be responsible on how these points are accrued. The Lecture instructor can use these points for attendance, quizzes, or other activities that are deemed appropriate. Grading Scale
• 90-100 % A 900-1000 points • 80-89 % B 800-899 points • 70-79 % C 700-799 points • 60-69 % D 600-699 points • 59% and below F < 599 points

Supplemental Instruction (SI) Supplemental Instruction (SI) study sessions are being offered to students enrolled in this course this semester. SI sessions will be held three (3) times per week throughout the semester and students can attend sessions anytime they are offered. SI sessions are interactive, peer-led, group study opportunities facilitated by an SI Leader. Weekly SI sessions focus on engaging students in reviewing current course material, strengthening students’ understanding of key course concepts, developing and practicing innovative learning strategies, and preparing for course exams. The SI Leaders in this class are students who have already successfully completed this course and mastered the course material. In addition to facilitating SI sessions, your SI Leader(s) attend lecture weekly to serve as an in-class resource for you and hold weekly office hours in the Academic Development Center (second floor of Kerr-Drummond Mezzanine) to help address any questions you have about course content. Why should you attend SI?
1. On average, students who regularly attended SI in this course last semester earned higher final course grades than students who did not attend SI.
2. Students who regularly attended SI in this course last semester successfully completed the course at a higher rate than students who did not attend SI.
3. SI is open to everyone taking this course, it’s voluntary, and it’s completely FREE!
What should I expect in an SI session? 1. Your SI Leader will act as a facilitator. Your Leader won’t re-lecture the current week’s material, but
will get you and your fellow students actively engaged in working through key concepts using creative, proven study methods.
2. You and your classmates will work together to find solutions to problems and will help each other gain a better understanding of challenging class material.
3. An SI session is a “no pressure” zone. Your SI Leader is a near-peer who has been where you are now. Your Leader isn’t a TA and has no access to or influence over your course grades. SI sessions are a time to ask questions in an open environment. There’s no need to feel nervous. You’re all there to improve and help each other out.
4. You’ll get the most out of each session by coming prepared. Bring your textbooks, your reading and lecture notes, and your questions.
Your SI Leader(s) will poll the class during the first week of lecture to identify the SI session times that will work best for members of the class. SI sessions will start during the second week of class. Your SI Leader(s) will announce session days and times. You can find out more information about SI for this class by visiting: lasso.okstate.edu/si-info.

HONORS DISUCSSION TEACHING STYLE You will have 15 minutes at the beginning of class during which to ask questions and finalize your assignments. If everyone has them completed, we will spend time discussing how the assignment went, what you learned, how you can use it in the future, etc. The remainder of the class period will be spent doing fun (yes FUN) interactive learning. Below is a list of activities that we will participate in during discussion class hours.
HONORS DISCUSSION ASSIGNMENTS *These assignments fulfill the 40 points on the main lecture syllabus labeled “Discussion In-Class Activities.” They also fulfill and replace the 20 points from “Assignment 13: Nutrition Research and Media.” You will not do assignment 13. MyPlate Social Media Meals
Instructions: You’ve all seen friend’s pictures of meals on social media. If they are like my friends, their meals are not very healthy. Let’s pretend that you would like to be a healthy eating social media role model. Take pictures of a day’s worth of MyPlate-compliant meals – 1 breakfast, 1 lunch, and 1 dinner (they do not have to actually be all from the same day). Put them each individually on a PowerPoint slide and caption them each for social media with a healthy eating message explaining how the meal is compliant with MyPlate and why the social media viewer should want to eat it (get creative but be nutrition science accurate here). There is a template and example posted on Canvas for you to use and take a look at. DO NOT COPY THIS CAPTION! Come up with your own. Note: You do not have to actually post these on social media for the assignment. We are pretending.
15
Due: February 12 before class What’s it worth: 10 points Controversial Position Paper
Instructions: You will be writing a position paper on a controversial nutrition topic. First, you must pick a controversial nutrition topic (list of ideas below) and get it approved by Dr. Joyce before beginning your paper. Once the topic is approved, your research on the topic may begin. You will need to include at least 3 peer-reviewed journal article references. I recommend using lib.okstate.edu to search for articles. You may also include government (i.e., CDC, NIH, etc.), professional association (i.e., ACSM, AMA, AND, etc.), and respected non-profit medical association (i.e., American Heart Association, American Diabetes Association, etc. – ask if unsure) references. The paper will state your position on the controversial topic and then justify that position with your references. This should be 3 pages, double-spaced, and include a reference list with in-text citations using AMA style (see word document on style on Canvas). You will also need to provide 3-5 sentences summarizing your controversy, the take-home message, and whether the summary and take-home message surprised you and why. This little summary should be included in the comments on the Canvas dropbox, or in an email to Dr. Joyce if that is easier, when you submit your paper. *Note: papers and summary statements will be posted on a class Canvas discussion board for the next assignment (below).

Instructions: Everyone says how tough it is to eat healthy while eating out, but is it really? It doesn’t have to be! Visit websites of fast food restaurants and build a day’s worth of healthy fast food meals from 3 different restaurants – 1 breakfast, 1 lunch, and 1 dinner. What counts as fast food? Use the following restaurants – Jimmy John’s, Subway, Panera, Zaxby’s, Golden Chick, Arby’s, McAllister’s, Chipotle, Qdoba, ChicK-Fil-A, KFC, Burger King, McDonald’s, Braums, Pie Five, Five Guys, Taco Bell, Cane’s, Panda Express, or Starbucks. Once you have 3 meals in mind, check their nutrition facts on the restaurant’s website and decide if they are truly healthy. You will need to provide a report with the restaurant’s name, the meal, the nutrition facts (calories, total fat, saturated fat, trans fat, sodium, cholesterol, total carbohydrate, fiber, added sugar (if listed), protein, and whatever additional vitamins and minerals are available like vitamin C or calcium), the MyPlate food groups covered, and how this meal meets the Dietary Guidelines for Americans healthy meal pattern recommendations (does not have to meet all, but should meet some or ideally quite a few). A template of the report has been provided on Canvas for you to use.
