University of Ljubljana Researcher Provides New Study Findings on Diet and Nutrition (Card Game-based Learning on Nutrition Value and Labeling). Date: Dec. 25, 2020 From: Health & Medicine Week Publisher: NewsRX LLC Document Type: Report; Brief article Length: 394 words Lexile Measure: 1250L
Full Text: 2020 DEC 25 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Health & Medicine Week -- New research on diet and nutrition is the subject of a new report. According to news originating from Ljubljana, Slovenia, by NewsRx editors, the research stated, "In a consumer society, educating children for a healthy lifestyle is challenging for the teacher."
Our news reporters obtained a quote from the research from University of Ljubljana: "Daily, children are exposed to large amounts of information (including misinformation) and the field of healthy eating is no exception. The teacher must, therefore, develop good teaching strategies that include informative/innovative teaching tools. The aim of the study was to determine whether the learning results of pupils after the introduction of a didactic game with nutrition cards were better than the learning results of pupils who acquired knowledge through a traditional (teacher-lead) presentation. This pedagogical experiment was conducted with 56 Slovenian Grade 6 pupils aged 11-12 (28 students in the experimental group [EG] and 28 in the control group [CG]). The results showed that the EG students (students learning with nutritional cards) achieved a better result in the knowledge test compared to CG students. Most pupils taught with nutrition cards expressed a positive opinion about this type of learning."
According to the news editors, the research concluded: "They also stated that they would pay more attention to nutrition labeling in future purchases. The results suggest that using nutritional cards in teaching can have a positive effect on the learning process and the learning outcome."
