The presenter would benefit from adding a little more tone inflection and energy to the presentation. While I can tell she is passionate about the subject, her voice (as I listened only and reviewed the slides before testing) is so even and steady it was at times hard to pay attention

It seemed that half of the course was the chat part which repeated many of the same answers. The rest of the course seemed like common knowledge regarding many conditions that also require sensitivity. No new learning and no practical information.

in the acute care setting I work in, although the obesity is evident, it tends to be ignored as long as we have the proper equipment to address the therapy goals. This course opened my eyes to the awareness of STIGMA and real unspoken patient struggles which could be addressed, tactfully, if necessary. The statistics are so unexpected, and I was not aware that this is such a problem of such great proportions. We . have encountered many of the issues mentioned. raised awareness is the 1st step

Obesity is an increasing issue today in therapy with both adults and children. We do need more awareness and training in this area including our own attitude toward those who are obese.

The data on OT practitioners' views of working with clients with obesity was pretty eye-opening. I think that too much time was spent eliciting viewers' thoughts regarding the issue. I appreciate the clinical analysis opportunity, but the responses were understandably repetitive and time consuming. Maybe I'll feel differently after watching Part II of this webinar.

It was frustrating that the presenter spent so much of the course reading from her power point. and then when she opened up the chat for a few questions she just kept attending to her screen and reading the responses - a great many of which were repetitive. The information in the power point was researched and useful, but it added so much the few times the presenter actually shared something from her experience or briefly expanded on something. I am hopeful part 2 will be more useful & engaging.

I thought this course was very good and went in depth about obesity, stigma's associated with obesity, research done and comorbidities as well as how we as OT practitioner's can be more aware so that we can better meet the needs of this population. I really liked how the instructor organized her presentation, gave time for questions at the end and also asked questions for the presentation to be more engaging to have us critically think.
