Hello everyone... i must start off to say that its been an extremely busy week. We have so much work to have in before christmas. Unfortuntely i was unable to make time to have a proper meeting with the members of my podcast group this week but we have been briefly discussing our next step. We have decided to sit down together next week and decide what questions we shall be asking asking eachother when we are playing the role as either, a teacher, parent or a member of the health board "Minister". We are then going to divide up the research work between us so we can work on putting our podcast together over the christmas holidays. I am happy that we have a proper plan made out and i am looking forward to find out which roles i will be playing. I will post what questions are going to be asked after my next podcast meeting.!!

I have just had my second meeting regarding my podcast. In our meeting we discused who our target audience is going to be and who we will be interviewing. We came to the conclusion that parents are the audience that need to be addressed. We want to make them aware of the causes and dangers of childhood obesity, for instance are they aware of the factors that influence this disease, examples include lack of exercise, amount of tv watched at home, amount of physical activity done at home, eating habits etc. We decided that our documentry will involve interviewing a parent, a teacher and a minister from the "department of health, children school and families". Our podcast will involve alot of props, including physical avtivity timetables from 10 years ago and now. We still have to discuss what exact questions we are going to be asking our interviewers, but we are happy on what we've decided on and achieved so far.
