PROJECT BASED LEARNING 1

Aim: To study the obesity problem among school children and suggest ways to overcome it.
Format of reports.
• Title
• Authors
• Abstract
• Table of contents
• Introduction
• Experimental techniques and methods
• Results and discussion
• Summary/conclusions
• References
• Appendices

1. First Page.
This should contain the title, the student’s name, class, teacher’s name and the date.
Title: A study on the obesity problem among students in SMJK Perempuan Perak.
Teacher’s name: Puan Nurul Shafiah bt. Mustafa Kamal
2. Second Page.
The Abstract.
The second page should consist only of the abstract. The idea of the abstract is to provide a brief summary of
the report. The reader should be able to pick up from the abstract what the abstract entailed, how it was
undertaken and an indication of what was found out. An abstract should not review the report, but should
rather act as a sampler of the contents of the report. Typically the abstract should be less than 200 words.
3. Third page.
This should comprise a table of contents, indicating the page numbers of the different sections.
4. Fourth page and onwards.
4.1 Introduction.
This is where you need to outline the underlying concepts (and if required a brief version of any theory)
needed to discuss the project.
Theory:

 Any BMI ≥ 35 or 40 kg/m2 is severe obesity.


 A BMI of ≥ 35 kg/m2 and experiencing obesity-related health conditions or ≥40–44.9 kg/m2 is morbid obesity.
 A BMI of ≥ 45 or 50 kg/m2 is super obesity.

4.2 Findings / Results and discussion.


Present your results in a logical sequence, highlighting what is important and how the data you obtained have
been analysed to provide the results you discuss. You should discuss what you infer from the data. You need
to adopt a critical approach. For example, discuss the relative confidence you have in different aspects of the
measurements. Make sure that all pictures, diagrams, graphs etc. are properly labeled and have a caption.
•Use the survey form provided by teacher to gather the data.
•The data collected must be students from form1 – form 5 that shows symptoms of obesity.
•From the data sampling, choose 3 students who have BMI ≥ 35 kg/m2 
•Run an interwiew session with the 3 students. The interviews must be documented. 10 questions related
with eating habit, type of food, lifestyle etc. can be asked during the interview.
4.3 Summary and conclusion.
This is the section in which you need to put it all together. It differs from the abstract in that, It should be more
informative, something that can easily be accomplished because you may devote more words to it. You should
include a concise version of your discussion, highlighting what you found out, what problems you had, and
what might be done in the future to remedy them. You should also indicate how the investigation could
usefully be continued.
• Write a summary about the relationship between eating processed and junk food and the problem of
obesity.
• Suggest ways to solve the problem of obesity at school level.
• Write a brief conclusion for the project.
5. Pages, diagrams, references and tables must all be numbered.
6. A word on references.
