You are required to read and respond to each article assigned. Additionally, you must respond to each post made by your classmates.
In total, this means you will need to make 6 posts: 3 original responses to the articles and 3 replies to your classmates’ posts.
The responses should be posted on the discussion board.
Articles – 15% (3 articles 5% each one)
Articles will be posted on the course content/discussion board. In order to get full credit for the discussion, you will need to post a thoughtful, well-written response to the question and respond to one of your classmates’ answers. This means two posts in total per article.
Do not just summarize the article. I assume you can do that. Rather, you want to write about things that strike you as perceptive, on point, interesting, articulated in a way you hadn’t thought of before, etc. In these responses, you can respond to each other or bring up new things. Be sure to express your opinions in a professional manner.

Please keep the following in mind,
Answers to discussion questions should reflect the use of critical thinking skills that demonstrate knowledge and comprehension, personal and/or professional application, as well as analysis, synthesis and evaluation of course material. 
This is a college course, not a text message. I expect college level vocabulary, correct grammar, spelling, and complete sentences. You may use bullets to format your responses but all bullet points must be complete sentences.
You must cite your sources (text pages, web addresses, article author/title). 
Please be specific but concise. 
Topic 2: The GI tract and digestion
Describe what happens in each of the organs of the gastrointestinal tract. Describe how food moves from the esophagus into the stomach.  Why is food in the lumen still considered outside the body?  Do you believe that the phrase “you are what you eat” is true?
Do not forget to site your source

POSSIBLE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS
What is the predominant religion practiced by Haiti

POSSIBLE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS
What is the predominant religion practiced by Haitians? According to the internet, 96% Christian, 1% no religion, 3% all other religions.
What does practicing Christianity entail? Do most Haitians attend weekly church services? What kind of spiritual practices are involved at home?
The internet states that around 50% of Haitians practice voodoo. Is this accurate? What is voodoo? What does it mean for someone to practice voodoo? Is it bad to talk about voodoo?
I read that many children and adults in Haiti are malnourished, something like 25%. Do you feel everyone is thin in Haiti or that it is common to be malnourished? How do Haitians differ from that when they are here in America?
Can most Haitians read and write in kreyol? French? Is French the language you are taught in school? I read a statistic that said 6 out of 10 are illiterate. Is finishing high school common?
Tell me about the role of the family in Haitian culture. Are they usually close with extended family like grandmas and grandpas? Would you define the family unit as more matriarchal (mom-centered) or dad centered?
Common law marriage is very common, right? Meaning, if you live with and have kids with someone, you can call someone your husbandwife?
Would you describe Hatiains as strict with their kids or lenient? How do they discipline? Spanking?
What role do doctors play in Haiti? In America, “well child visits” are the norm. Is this true in Haiti or do you only go to the dr when you are sick? What is the medical system like in Haiti?
Voodoo medicine or folk medicines, like making herbal teas to treat illnesses etc seems to be common in Haitian culture. Are Haitians more likely than Americans to try folk medicine or alternative medicine, rather than use the medical system? If so, why do you think this is?
Do Haitians trust health care providers like doctors? Do they trust translators? Do they trust the workers at the WIC office?
Some cultures view curvy or thicker bodies as healthiest and most beautiful; while other cultures value thinness as the ideal. How do Haitians see weight and body size? Are chunkier babies seen as healthier or preferred, compared to skinnier or tiny babies?

Step #1: Identify at least two food ads (print or video) that use ideas about gender to market their product and include these with your submission.
One ad/commercial should be for a food product marketed to men/masculine consumers.
One ad/commercial should be for a food product marketed to women/feminine consumers.
Please note that for the purposes of this assignment, Carl’s Junior ads are not acceptable. While they are certainly prevalent, memorable, and relevant to the topic at hand, I’d like you to dig deeper and find some other good examples. 
Step #2: Write 1-2 pages Simple and to the point.
Identify the gendered metamessages in your chosen ads/commercials.
Reflect on how American ideas about gender have changed (and/or not) over time. 
Cite course readings for support.
