Strengths
Weaknesses
1. Potential for user to focus on calories over other components of the app
2. Some pre-set reminders emphasize a number, rather than how the student is feeling (i.e. “step on the
scale”)
3. Medical conditions and restrictions are not factored into the logging system, which has potential equity
issues within the class (As the facilitator, consider everyone’s abilities in the community)
4. Some students may not have access to technology, this application requires a personal device or
computer
1. The teacher must emphasize that this is just ONE tool that can be used to help students achieve a goal
2. Need to coach students to use the app effectively: to be able to track their progress without feeling that
they constantly need to log information
3. Teacher must monitor community forums to ensure that the communication between students is
appropriate and productive
4. Teacher must monitor goals and blogs of individual students to ensure healthy and well-balanced goal
