00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:44,160
The first question in the聽
assessment is from the WellSAT 3.0.聽聽
8
00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:49,980
It is labeled as NE2, which is the聽
same label used on the WellSAT tool.聽聽
9
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:54,780
If you have already completed a WellSAT聽
assessment, you can look at the results聽聽
10
00:00:54,780 --> 00:01:01,920
for question NE2 and click on that result in the聽
WPAT. However, if you've not completed a WellSAT聽聽
11
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:06,660
assessment, you can answer the question聽
in real-time directly on the WPAT tool.聽聽
12
00:01:07,740 --> 00:01:12,900
The question asks you to assess the district's聽
written policy about nutrition education聽聽
13
00:01:12,900 --> 00:01:19,480
teaching skills that are behavior-focused聽
interactive and/or participatory. 聽

00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:30,840
The response options are zero no policy,聽

00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:37,320
For guidance on how to determine the strength聽
of the policy, click on the info bubble.聽聽
16
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:43,920
A pop-up screen will come up with additional聽
guidance. A zero means that the district does聽聽
17
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:49,980
not have a policy about this topic. There will聽
also be examples of sample language to help you聽聽
18
00:01:49,980 --> 00:01:56,460
determine the difference between a weak policy and聽
a strong policy. This guidance comes directly from聽聽
19
00:01:56,460 --> 00:02:01,920
the WellSAT tool. Once you score the policy,聽
you can scroll down to the next question.

00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,520
based on a question that is from聽
the School Health Index or SHI.聽聽

23
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,920
If you have not yet completed the SHI, you can聽

24
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:32,520
Question N.1 asks, "Does your health education聽

28
00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,960
some of the topics, most of the聽
topics, or all of the topics?

curriculum and if it is required and aligns with聽
standards. Using the same process as before,聽聽
