In today's class, we learned a lot of knowledge, including community needs assessment and food insecurity.
About community needs assessment, the goal for that is to facilitate project development. And the basic step to a community needs assessment are: define the problem, set the parameters of the assessment, collect data, analyze/interpret data, share the findings, set priorities, choose a plan of action.
About food insecurity, the objective is to provide an overview of food security in the US. And we watched a part of movie.
I feel sad when I saw the mother in movie lied to her children to offer the food what they want. And from the 60 minutes, it totally changed my mind about food insecurity was far from us... We really need to pay much attention about that bad situation. I don't know what we could do to change it... I feel so lucky and happiness about what I have.

For first class (March 27)
From today's class, we learned some basic knowledge about community nutrition.
Nutrition is a huge topic, everybody cared about it. Community nutrition usually face to a group people who has the similar or common ideology.
From this class, I want to learn more nutrition knowledge faced to specific group. Because the inter nutrition we learned last quarter we learned a lot of things about basic nutrition, such as how carbohydrate become energy, I really wanna learn how to use this basic skill to specific peoples.
In my opinion, community nutrition could help people get specific nutrition needs, which is quite cool. Everybody has different nutrition needs, and the similar ideology could help nutritionist suggest some common advice to them.
