Exercise Design and Planning Series - Part 3 - This week we'll discuss the importance of one of hardest parts of designing an exercise...writing the objectives and scenario. These two sections are often short changed in the design and planning of drills and exercise events because they are not easy to do and require a good bit of actual writing. Today we'll talk about the simple steps you can take to put a set of manageable/testable objectives as well as an interesting-motivating scenario/narrative. Comments[0] |

In part one of this series we'll look at defining what an exercise program is and what the needed elements should look like. Social Media in 2009...why you can't ignore it! An article from Social Computing Magazine (socialcomputingmagazine.com) by Eric Branter (http://www.socialcomputingmagazine.com/viewcolumn.cfm?colid=643) that talks about social media and networking. Great viewpoints here. I found this over at Disaster Zone (www.disasterzone.com) Wearing a mask can prevent the flu in the home and community. I don't know that we needed a study to tell us that, but I'm glad they did it. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/136714.php Comments[0] |
