Overview and Tips for Teaching CHFFF Virtually: Choose Health: Food, Fun, and FitnessQuestions or feedback: Wendy Wolfe, ww16@cornell.eduCHFFF Lessons:Drink Low-Fat Milk and Water Instead of Sweetened DrinksColor Your Plate: Eat More Vegetables and FruitsRead It Before You Eat It! The Nutrition Facts LabelMake Half Your Grains Whole! Eat More Whole GrainsHealthier Foods – Fast: Eat Fewer High-Fat, High-Sugar FoodsPower Up Your Day: Eat Breakfast!Lesson Access and UseLessons and other resources for teaching the virtual version of CHFFF can be found here: The virtual CHFFF lessons are shared with the following understanding: The lessons will be used as written.Minor modifications for local program requirements such as adding institutional logos are appropriate.They will be used for not-for-profit educational use only.Cornell University will be acknowledged in all uses.Lesson FormatLessons are about 1 hour and are designed to be taught live, via Zoom (or a similar system). The lesson slides are in PowerPoint? and the Facilitator Notes are in Word?. The PowerPoint files are large (20-30 MB); confirm adequate space for download and upload to an online file storage system as needed. The slides are set to open in an adjustable sub-window even when shared via Zoom, rather than the default setting that takes over your whole screen. This way you can see the Facilitator Notes in Word in another window on the same screen while you teach.(To set this: On Slide Show tab in PowerPoint, click Set Up Slide Show, then Show Type “Browsed by an individual”)Additional slide-sets for Breakout rooms: For Lessons 1, 2, 4, and 5, an additional copy of just the breakout room slides are provided for a co-facilitator to use (for Lessons 3 and 6, these slides are already in separate files). SNAP-Ed: A separate set of slides is provided for SNAP-Ed use, with brand names blocked out. All lessons use the ‘4A’ format to keep them relevant and engaging:“Anchor” to connect to previous experience,“Add” new information, “Apply” the new information by doing something interactive with it, and“Away” to set a goal for their daily lives.Re-set images after teaching: After teaching or practicing, be sure to re-set the images so you are ready to teach again. The easiest way to do this is to close and not save the slides file (see PowerPoint tips, below).Lesson Preparation and TrainingA co-facilitator is highly recommended to allow smaller group activities in two break-out rooms:Ensures more hands-on, interactive lessonsCan assist with viewing and monitoring the youth (as co-host, they can see all or most participants at once - see Appendix).Can monitor the Chat, help with slides, etc.The Virtual CHFFF lessons take some practice and preparation to teach well. Start by viewing this 1-hour Training Webinar for an overview of Virtual CHFFF with teaching tips (edited recording of a NY EFNEP training conducted 12/10/20).Practice teaching each lesson several times:Many of the slides are animated, with multiple images on one slide. You cannot see all the images in Normal View, so practice in Slide Show View, clicking on each slide or using the arrow keys to advance any animation and then go to the next slide; right-click to see other options. To make the lessons more engaging, the slides are returned to Normal View periodically to move images around or enter text, as indicated. Therefore you need to exit to Normal View to practice these interactive parts. Also practice the live demonstrations (sugar in drinks, blubber burgers), active games, and other parts that require stopping slide sharing and making sure participants can view you or your hands. To learn how to use other important Zoom and PowerPoint features, refer to the detailed instructions in the Appendices below as you practice teaching.Training Videos: Watch these 20-minute recordings of actual teaching of virtual CHFFF, with brief clips of all parts of each lesson (taught by the college interns who helped develop them, as well as by teens in our CHAT program, see Appendix 3).Lesson 1 Training VideoLesson 2 Training VideoLesson 3 Training Video Lesson 4 Training VideoLesson 5 Training Video Lesson 6 Training VideoRecommended: Watch part of a lesson video, then practice that part using the notes and the slides, then watch and practice the next part, etc. Review nutrition contentLesson Backgrounds: Review these 1-page summaries of key nutrition content for each lesson.Virtual Jeopardy game: Play this as a fun way to review key nutrition content from the lessons and related issues to prepare you for questions.To play, open in Slide Show view and click any square on the main slide to go to a question for a team or individual to answer, then click where indicated to reveal the correct answer and to return to the main slide. Note: This meant for educators and teen teachers, not participants, since the content goes beyond what they are learning in the CHFFF lessons. Appendix 1: Power Point Tips for Teaching CHFFF Virtually Embedded VideosAll lessons have at least one video with an embedded link (e.g., the CHFFF recipe videos and others).To ensure good sound quality, make sure to click the “Share computer sound” option in the “Share Screen” button. For the videos to work, each time you open a lesson in PowerPoint, you need to click “Enable Content” in the message at the top of the slides that says “Security Warning: References to external media objects have been blocked,” as shown below:Animated SlidesMany of the slides are animated, which means that items only appear after you click anywhere on the slide or use your forward arrow key on your keyboard. The Facilitation Notes tell you when to click. When you view the slides in Normal view, you will see all the animated texts and images at once - so be sure to practice in Slide Show View. Linked SlidesImages in some of the slides are clickable. When you click on them, they will go to another slide that may not be the next slide. For example, this is used for the “pop-up” Nutrition Facts labels in the Apply activities in Lessons 3 and 6. Example (Lesson 6 Apply): Say the youth choose to look at the Nutrition Facts label for the Quaker Oats first. You click on that package on the main slide (shown below, with all four packages), and the slide showing only the Quaker Oats and its label will open (see next image).51406791972851To return to the main slide so that the youth may select another cereal to look at, click on the package itself (e.g., Quaker Oats) and not elsewhere on the slide. When done comparing the 4 cereals, return to the main slide and this time click on the yellow star on the lower right (see above) to move on to the table comparing the 4 cereals. Interactive SlidesFor activities that move images around, such as moving selected vegetables onto the plates in Lesson 2 (shown below), exit Slide Show to Normal View, then select and drag items (be sure to return them after teaching by using “undo” before exiting). Enlarge the slide as much as you can for better viewing, minimizing the left-hand column. Resetting the Slides After TeachingIt is important to return the slides to their original look so they are ready for future teaching. This means making sure images are returned to their places and any added text is removed. Option 1 (recommended): Close the PowerPoint slides file and click “Don’t Save”Option 2: Click “Undo” or press Control + Z on your keyboard (do not Save first)Option 3: Re-download the slides file from the original source.Option 4: Reset manually by moving the images back to their original positions.Appendix 2: Zoom Tips for Teaching CHFFF VirtuallyViewing Participants in ZoomView options are in the top right corner of Zoom:Gallery View: Allows you to see most participants at onceSpeaker View: Only the person currently speaking is shown. This is useful for the live demonstrations (e.g., Lesson 1’s sugar in drinks and Lesson 5’s blubber burgers) and for games where participants take turns leading actions – ask participants to switch to Speaker View.357378016573500Sharing Your Screen and Computer SoundBasic MethodStep 1: Open the document you want to share and click Step 2: Tick the box next to “Share computer sound” so that music for the recipe video and any games can be heard by participants (see screen shot below).Step 3: Select the document you want to share (e.g., the PowerPoint slides)Step 4: Click “Share.” Note: Only the host/co-host can enable others to share the screen.For videos, it is better to adjust the volume of the video itself instead of the computer’s system so that the volume of your voice that others hear in Zoom is not affected.Share Portion of Screen - Alternate OptionThis option allows you to switch between documents you want to share without having to stop and re-start sharing, and is especially useful for switching between the Main and Apply slide sets in Lessons 3 and 6.Step 1: Click on Share Screen and Share Computer Sound box as above.Step 2: Click on “Advanced” at the top of the pop-up window.Step 3: Select “Portion of Screen” (see below), then click “Share.”An adjustable green box will appear – whatever is inside it is what your participants see. Adjust box as needed to show just your document by selecting and dragging a side or corner. Switch between documents and re-adjust box as needed. Just be careful as you do so, since participants will see whatever is in the green box. Viewing the Facilitation Notes while Screen Sharing the SlidesStep 1: Open the PowerPoint slides in Slide Show View and minimize that window to half of your desktop screen. The slides are set to open in an adjustable window when shared via Zoom rather than the default setting that takes over your whole screen. Step 2: Open the Facilitation Notes Word document and minimize that window to fit the other half of your desktop screen.Step 3: Share Screen - Choose only the PowerPoint Window. The participants can only see the Slides (outlined in a green box), not your Facilitation Notes.Step 4: Click in the PowerPoint window to advance and animate the slides. To move down the facilitation notes, scroll with your mouse without clicking in that window, or click there and then use the scroll bar (then click twice in the slide window to advance the slide). Polls – How to CreateSet up Polls BEFORE the actual Meeting, as follows (Note: Polls must be set up by the meeting host, but can be launched by a co-host during the meeting):Step 1: After setting up your Zoom meeting, log into your web version of Zoom (e.g., Cornell Zoom) and click “Meetings”, then click on the name of the Meeting.Step 2: Scroll to the bottom of the page and click “Add”Step 3: Create the poll by filling in the details as stated in the Facilitation Notes and click “Save” at the bottom. For polls with more than one question (like in lesson 6), use “Add a question” to add more questions to the same poll.Note: Each poll can be launched separately during the meetingPolls – How to Launch During Live Meeting-247651905000Step 1: Click “Polling” at the bottom of your Zoom screen. If more than one poll, select the poll you want to launch by clicking on the down button next to the poll, as shown:Step 2: When a pop up appears, click “Launch Poll” to launch and then “End Poll” when you think everyone has completed it who is going to.Step 3: Click “Share Results” so that participants can see the poll’s results.351345521653500Breakout RoomsStep 1: Click “Breakout Rooms” at the bottom of Zoom (Only the Host will have this button)Step 2: Choose 2 breakout rooms, select “Manually,” then click “Create Breakout Rooms.” Step 3: Assign participants into each room by checking the box next to their names. Remember to put one facilitator into each room. This can be done ahead of opening the breakout rooms, e.g., as soon as all participants have joined the Zoom. Step 4: Click when it is time to go into breakout rooms.Step 5: Join the other room if you are the second facilitator.Note: Since only the host can create breakout rooms, if there are two facilitators, the one not presenting the Add section should be made host so they can create the breakout rooms beforehand.Co-Hosts and Switching Hosts 293751011493500To make someone else a co-host or host: Step 1: Click participant icon at bottom of Zoom. Step 2: On the pop-up list of participants, click “More” next to the name you want (or right-click on the name) and you can give that person Host or Co-host privilege. NOTE: While you can have multiple co-hosts, only one person can be Host, so you lose Host privilege, but can reclaim it by clicking on “More” for yourself. Switching hosts is useful if you want your co-facilitator to make the breakout rooms, which can only be done by the main Host. Side-by-side View to see more participants at the same time Note: For viewing a shared screen (does not work for the person screen sharing)Step 1: Click the down button (“v”) next to “View Options” at the top of the screen and check “Side-by-side” mode.Step 2: Drag the bar as indicated in the picture to the left to show multiple participants at once. Appendix 3: Development of Virtual CHFFFChoose Health: Food, Fun, and Fitness (CHFFF) is a 6-lesson, hands-on, evidence-based curriculum for 3rd-8th graders that targets behaviors shown to reduce unhealthy weight gain & chronic disease. The print version was developed by Cornell’s Division of Nutritional Sciences in collaboration with Cornell Cooperative Extension’s 4-H Youth Development Program, with substantial local staff and youth participant input to ensure feasibility and ease of use. Co-authors are Wendy Wolfe, PhD, Cornell Division of Nutritional Sciences, and Sally Crosiar. For more information: using a quasi-experimental design with a delayed-intervention control period prior to CHFFF showed that participants improved significantly compared to their no-intervention control period in overall diet quality, vegetable and fruit intake, soda/fast food intake, intent to consume soda/fast food, frequency of reading Nutrition Facts labels, frequency of sharing about healthy eating with their family, and the likelihood of having tried a new food. CHFFF is used in all U.S. 50 states, primarily in EFNEP, SNAP-Ed, and 4-H. It was also designed to be taught by teens in our companion program Choose Health Action Teens (CHAT), in which teens are trained to co-teach CHFFF to younger youth in after-school programs, summer camps, schools, and other settings. For information on CHAT: virtual version of CHFFF was developed in response to the Covid-19 pandemic as part of a planned Choose Health Action Teens (CHAT) program in New York City that had to be converted to remote learning. The NYC PAL CHAT project was led by Jackie Davis-Manigaulte, Cornell Cooperative Extension-NYC Family & Youth Development Program Leader, Wolfe, and Dana Wheeler, Director of Education and Program Development for the Police Athletic League (PAL), our local agency partner, and included eight college summer interns (see photo). 33439104127500With guidance from Wolfe, pairs of interns took the lead on converting the printed lessons to virtual versions, maintaining fidelity to the printed versions and their 4-A format (see above), and keeping them engaging and interactive. They also created recipe videos and active games. The full team gave input on development of the lessons, which were then further modified as we taught them to twelve NYC teens as we trained them as teen teachers, and then as the teens taught the lessons to youth, mentored by the interns. All of this was done via Zoom, with our team, the teens, and the youth in their own homes. In addition, we sent the following items to each youth’s home: (a) ingredients for each lesson’s recipe via a food delivery service and a box with cooking equipment so they could make the 6 recipes demonstrated in the recipe videos, and (b) the lesson newsletters, a letter to parents, and other handouts. The youth were asked to write their goals onto the newsletter at the end of each lesson and share them with their families, since goal-setting and family support are very important for behavior change.
