INside Out Program
What is INside Out?
INside Out is an optional, health education enrichment exercise for Indiana ninth graders who are taking part in the Indiana State Department of Health’s Partners Recruiting Opportunities for Minority Student Education (PROMiSE) program. Students who participate in the program will face the challenge of writing, producing, and directing a one-minute INShape Indiana television commercial or song/jingle. The projects must promote INShape Indiana’s three focus areas of better nutrition, increased physical activity, and avoiding tobacco, and the television commercial must target students’ local communities.
There are two ways for you to get involved in INside Out. First, if you are a member of INSight Youth Corps, you can participate in INside Out. Youth Corps students who have completed a group project are encouraged to select an INside Out project as an additional project for Youth Corps. Or, if your school is hosting the PROMiSE program, you can select an INside Out project as your advanced project option.
What is PROMiSE?
The purpose of the Partners Recruiting Opportunities for Minority Student Education (PROMiSE) program is to provide a set of academic enrichment activities for a target audience of interested ninth grade students from racial/ethnic minority populations. The goal of these activities is to improve students’ awareness of health care professions, increase their academic preparedness for post-secondary education, and ultimately, increase the rate at which racial/ethnic minority students enroll in and graduate from health professions education programs. However, all students, regardless of race or ethnicity, are invited to participate. To learn more about PROMiSE click here.
- Is My School Participating in the PROMiSE Program? (See list below)
- But I’ve Never Made a Commercial Before, or Even a Video.
- I Like Music, but Coming Up with a Song or Jingle…I Wouldn’t Even Know Where to Begin?
- What if I want to make a commercial, but I also want to write a song or a jingle to be played as part of my commercial?
If Students wish, they may submit an INShape Indiana song or jingle and a commercial, or a commercial that contains an original INShape Indiana tune. Reminder: commercials can still only be one minute in length. However, students who opt for doing both projects must get prior approval from their teacher or guidance counselor.
