KINE 3000 Final Project

Instructions: For the final project, you are going to synthesize the knowledge that you have learned across the semester and create a wellness plan for yourself that you can use. The goal is to take the knowledge and put it to use with yourself as the participants. For the project, you will have to (1) outline what behaviors you want to engage in, (2) provide evidence from the class as to how this health behavior will lead to beneficial outcomes, and (3) create a framework to track the behavior over time.

Outline:

You need to choose an activity that will help you improve your life in each of these categories:

1. Happiness/Subjective Well Being

2. Physical Activity

3. Mindfulness

Then for each of those categories you need to write a paragraph that hits the following points:

1. Why did you choose that activity?

2. What benefits has this activity shown in the past?

3. Does research support the use of this activity?

4. If you are not able to do the activity in the future, what alternative activities can elicit the same benefits?

5. How often do you plan on doing this activity?

Lastly, you need to create a framework where you can track your behaviors. It could be a table, a grid, or anything else that makes it clear you will be able to track the behavior. You also need to include space in the table for how often you plan on doing the activity each week.
