Lesson 3: Analyze Exercise Plan
Lesson 4 »

Steps:
1.  Analyze exercise calendar – learners will be answering questions on an analysis worksheet.  This worksheet will help guide the learners through the analysis process.
2.  Analyze partner’s exercise worksheet – learners will then trade plans with another partner, and analyze these on their own.  Learners will need to find three strengths in their partner’s plan, and three areas for improvement.
3.  Update exercise plan – learners will read their partner’s analysis, and then make changes to their plan based on the feedback they receive.

Overview:

Pre-instructional Activities:
The lesson will begin with a motivational activity to gain the learner’s interest.  The activity will begin with a short discussion about how learners felt as they went through the first week of their exercise plan.

Content Presentation:
After the learners are logged in to the class, the rest of the activity is self-guided.  Learners will be able to download and print up a copy of the worksheet that they need to use in analyzing their exercise plans.

Learner Participation:
Learners will answer the questions on their exercise plan worksheet.  Learners will then exchange plans and find the strengths and areas of improvements for someone else’s plan.  Learners will finally be responsible for making changes to their exercise plan based on the feedback they receive.

Assessment:
The learner will demonstrate to the instructor that he/she is successful by providing feedback to another learner, and by making changes to their own personal plan based on feedback.

Post-Instructional Activities
Learners will continue to follow their exercise plan.  They will again be evaluating how well this plan worked in the next lesson.
