I love all your questions and your care for this disease. Your paper was awesome, good job !

Funky wording here

After this paragraph you could include an interview with your father

Maybe use the number "1" here

Again, just check on if you have to include all these authors (I am almost 100% sure that you don't need all of these names!) Purdue Owl is what I go by !

Woah! Thats a big decrease in the risk! Good fact :)

I like how you included an example of food that omega-3s are found in.

insert "the" between in and presence?

Double check if you need to include all 7 authors

Maybe include a hyperlink to what BMI is

This is also known as the Standard American Diet haha

Include a date of when he discovered this

Love

and treatment appraoches?

Love that you included this prevalence rate to put it into a perspective that people may understand better (like me hehe)

prevalence may be a bettter word to use.

Maybe include a hyperlink to what an assisted living facility is? And maybe explain the difference between an assisted living facility vs. a nursing home?

insert "to"

Do you put the abbreviation (AD) here after you introduce Alzheimer's for the first time?

I felt the same way watching my mother take care of my grandfather at his home and my grandmother who was in a nursing home/assisted living due to Alzheimer's as well.

Paraphrase?

SO happy Robin had us make a professional twitter it seriously has become so useful to me and I now see the benefits it brings to my knowledge and for future career searching!

When I first started IDS and was in the intro class I never thought I'd really like having my own website and didn't think I'd tell anyone about it but now I feel super proud of the work I published and linked it to my twitter!

I like this concept. I learned about photo mapping in my health promotion class. My teacher used this to gather data on recreation areas around New Hampshire. It allowed community members in towns take pictures of areas that needed improvement and areas that were sufficient. Cool idea!

I love to see what students are interested in now a days. There's always focus areas that I never even thought of.

With the option in majoring in an interdisciplinary program allows students to contribute to the ongoing growth of disciplines.

I like that there was no degree awarded after completing this because it shows that these students incentive was purely to learn and grow their knowledge rather than rush through just to get the piece of paper saying they completed it.

It is interesting that schooling began with topics focusing around religion. I grew up feeling that we weren't allowed to express or talk about our religion in school.

I like the breakdown of these terms, I wasn't very familiar with these and it makes me relate them to my major

Is this kind of how you interpret a sentences meaning or a story?

I feel that in most common problems or issues there are usually multiple factors contributing to the whole. So most of the time it is beneficial to break the question up into parts. For this example, identifying the smaller issues as to why students do poorly in their first semester allows students to focus on each area rather than overwhelming themselves trying to change overnight.

I tend to break larger topics into smaller ones to understand the big picture.

I will admit this has been a worry of mine. Although I called my program a Health Sciences program I feel that I'm not as competent as other college students who are actually in a Health Sciences program and I wonder how that will affect me when trying to find a job.

Before I changed from a nursing major to an IDS major I never thought of college students not being able to do what they want for a career because of the restrictions of colleges. Since joining the IDS world, I've learned how important this opportunity is for so many college students out there. It shocks me that not every college offers this!

Very true! Being able to create an IDS major is already contributing to a broadened education for yourself and it will only continue to grow once you enter your career field. It is important to stay up to date and current on topics, issues, and new research in your field. It is equally as important to continue that even after you graduate. Learning never stops!

New ideas are bound to be created when combining a diverse group of people together to solve a problem or find an outcome.

In my disease, safety, and environment class we were all assigned a specific health concerning topic to research. We had to create awareness and educate the PSU community through fact sheets and posters we hung up!

I don't recall learning about this term in my intro IDS course but I like it! I feel that a lot of the work we've done in IDS has worked with this transdisciplinarity term. In the sense that we use twitter and our domains to try and network and reach out to others in our career fields!

This metaphor is awesome, it really helps to distinguish the difference between the two terms! Way to go IDS :)

I feel that this comparison describes my major perfectly. I'm combining health courses, science courses, and nursing courses together to form a health science major. They blend together just like a smoothie!

I hope that with the increasing number of IDS programs in colleges and an increased numbers of students entering these programs creates more leaders who can educate and enlighten others

I never though of this as being a challenge to interdisciplinary research but it is a very good and important point. For example, while I was in Nursing school you learn the language of the nursing world and not everyone in the healthcare world may understand it which can create confusion and mistakes.

This surprised me I had to re-read it a couple times. I feel that collaborating is one of the best tools to succeeding

I believe there are more answers to research if you look beyond a single discipline and incorporate several

Nothing in life comes easy you must continue to educate yourself and deliver what is expected of yourself

I love this! It is so important to continue to push students in education and learning!

This is exactly where we need to be headed! Integrating skills between a range of courses is what interdisciplinary is all about!

I think this happens everyday in many more disciplines than we think. When I was in the nursing program we learned that a nurse is only one part of the interdisciplinary team and that it is essential that the whole team works together to reach and effective outcome.

LOVE! Education and knowledge should never stop being shared and learned!

I think this is a very good point! I've never looked at disciplines as a social community before. Very good points.

A very important movement and time period in our history. This gave influence and voice to many then and more to come after.

What fields are being referred to here? I am a little confused. I understood discipline as meaning an area of study. But they no doubt played a role in the interdisciplinary history.

Research and knowledge is ever-changing and it is essential that education continues for our state and country to continue thriving.

We've come a long way since the colonial institutions that just offered ministry educations (and later medicine and law).

Cool I never knew that these were the first colleges!

I feel like we should try make higher education a national system because other countries do not pay nearly close to what we do to attend college. I think students feel more pressure to follow a path they may not be passionate about or really even want to pursue just because they are so stressed about how much money there paying or the debt thats building.
