Goals and Objectives for Teaching Project
The Big Goal:
My goal this semester is to create an educational project that supports newly diagnosed type II diabetic geriatric patients in managing their nutrition, developing healthier habits, and preventing health risks through community education and support. To reduce the prevalence of diabetes and improve the quality of life for these individuals. The target group is the newly diagnosed type II diabetic geriatric patient resident of New Horizon affordable housing in Miami, Florida.
Objectives:
At the end of the project, participants will:
· Demonstrate increased knowledge and understanding of diabetes, including the disease process, risk factors, and prevention strategies.
· Be able to identify the signs and symptoms of diabetes, as well as the importance of regular screening and monitoring.
· Develop skills and strategies for managing diabetes, including healthy eating habits, physical activity, medication management, and stress reduction techniques.
· Appreciate the importance of social support and community resources in managing diabetes and achieving better health outcomes.
Action plan to effectively manage blood glucose and overall diabetes, it is important to utilize evidence-based guidelines and resources from reputable organizations such as the American Diabetes Association. These guidelines and resources provide valuable information and strategies for individuals with diabetes to maintain optimal health and prevent complications. By following these guidelines and utilizing available resources, individuals with diabetes can make informed decisions and take proactive steps towards managing their condition.
SMART Objectives:
· Specific: The project will target residents of New Horizon affordable housing, specifically older adults newly diagnosed type II diabetics. The teaching will take place over a period of 2 weeks.
· Measurable: At the end of the project, at least 80% of participants will demonstrate increased knowledge and understanding of diabetes through pre- and post-project surveys.
· Achievable: The project will leverage existing community resources and partnerships to provide education and support to participants and will be designed to accommodate varying levels of health literacy, disability, and access to healthcare.
· Relevant: The project aligns with the goal of reducing diabetes prevalence and improving quality of life for older adults residing in an affordable housing center.
· Time-specific: The project will take place over a period of 2 weeks, with specific objectives and activities scheduled at regular intervals throughout the project timeline.
Overall, the goal of this project is to improve diabetes management and outcomes in newly diagnosed type II diabetic older adults residing in New Horizon affordable living center, Miami , Florida by providing education, support, and resources to learn about managing diabetes. By setting specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-specific objectives, the project can track progress and outcomes over time, and adjust as needed to ensure that the project is effective and successful in achieving its goal.

Community Health Teaching
Part 1 - Goals
Objective:
Define your educational objectives regarding the knowledge, skills, values, beliefs, and practices you want the target group to adopt to achieve the goal. Example: "My goal this semester is to develop an educational project to assist newly diagnosed diabetic patients in managing their nutrition and glucose monitoring." See the example Sample Goals and Objectives for Teaching Project.docx Download Sample Goals and Objectives for Teaching Project.docx for your reference. This Part 1 is worth 5 points of the Community Health Teaching Project.
At the end of the project, participants will:
· Verbalize increased knowledge and understanding of the diabetes disease process.
· Be able to identify the signs and symptoms of hyper and hypoglycemia.
· Be able to identify solutions to the environmental impacts.
· Develop an appreciation for a glycemic diet and the importance of monitoring blood glucose.
· Use of the American Diabetes Association guidelines for blood glucose control.
Instructions:
1. Choose a topic for your community teaching project that is suitable for your selected community.
2. Follow the steps below to develop your goals:
· The goal or aim of your project is a broad statement of what you want to achieve.
· Analyze the problem or the issue.
· Find out what is causing concern and break the issue into its components: "Patients with Diabetes."
· Identified the Stakeholders ('key players' or main stakeholders and invited them to be part of the project) "Talk to the Diabetes educator."
· Know your target group (a group, for example, adolescents with Type I DM)
· Understand the characteristics of your target group, "recently diagnosed diabetes patient," "pre-menopausal women at risk for diabetes."
· Determine the result you want from your community education project. Define this regarding a goal, educational objectives, and desired outcomes.
3. Read the following article, Goal Setting and Action Planning for Health Behavior ChangeLinks to an external site. .
4. Please review the "Grading Rubric" below before you begin working on this part of the project to ensure that you are aware of all the requirements.
Design your Educational Project (based on evidence)
1. Make an action plan and implement it.
2. Evaluate the objectives by testing or surveying the knowledge and attitudes of the participants concerning the purposes.
· Consider the SMART model:
· Specific: Clearly state the issue, the target group, and the time and place of the activity.
· Measurable: Be clear about what will be changed and by how much. Setting this clearly at the start makes it easier to evaluate. Example of a measurable goal: "Within the next six weeks, I will develop a health literacy program for at-risk of amputation diabetic patients in the community. I will survey at the end of the program. 80% of participants will answer at least five questions correctly in the survey."
· Achievable: Be realistic about what the project achieves regarding the scale/scope of what is being done, time, and resources available.
· Relevant: Objectives need to relate to and be relevant to the goals. Remember, objectives are the building blocks/steps toward meeting the goals.
· Time Specific: Be clear in the objectives about the timeframe in which the program/activities, as well as expected changes, will take place
Remember that the rest of the course will be used to accomplish your goal, so set a clear one.
· Goal statements "identify" the specific target group and provide the "what" information as distinct from the "how" the goal will be achieved or when it will come about.
· Objectives are the building blocks or steps toward achieving a program's goals. Objectives are specific and concise statements stating who will make what change, by how much, where, and when.
