Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Extract: The Child Care Nutrition Education Training Program was conducted in 1979-80 as part of the North Carolina Nutrition Education and Training State Program. The main purpose was to develop an effective model for providing nutrition education and experiences to improve the food choices of young children and their caregivers. A comprehensive approach was used. Four groups were targeted: child care teachers, child care food preparation personnel, children, and parents. The various nutrition education services available in the state and the child care training programs were involved in designing a coordinated plan for increasing future nutrition work with child care personnel. Results include the findings of the statewide needs assessment and the pilot demonstration of nutrition education in 24 day care centers. Recommendations for extending nutrition education through planned use of all nutrition related agencies are included as part of the final report of the project. (AUTHOR).

This book was released on 2013-09-21 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The childhood obesity epidemic and related health consequences are urgent public health problems. Approximately one-third of America's young people are overweight or obese. Health problems once seen overwhelmingly in adults, such as type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension, are increasingly appearing in youth. Though the health of Americans has improved in many broad areas for decades, increases in obesity could erode these and future improvements. The IOM report Accelerating Progress in Obesity Prevention: Solving the Weight of the Nation recognized the importance of the school environment in addressing the epidemic and recommended making schools a focal point for obesity prevention. The development and implementation of K-12 nutrition benchmarks, guides, or standards (for a discussion of these terms, see the next section of this chapter) would constitute a critical step in achieving this recommendation. National nutrition education curriculum standards could have a variety of benefits, including the following: Improving the consistency and effectiveness of nutrition education in schools; Preparing and training teachers and other education staff to help them provide effective nutrition education; Assisting colleges and universities in the development of courses in nutrition as part of teacher certification and in updating methods courses on how to integrate nutrition education in subject-matter areas in the classroom and in materials; and Establishing a framework for future collaborative efforts and partnerships to improve nutrition education. Nutrition Education in the K-12 Curriculum: The Role of National Standards is a summary of the workshop's presentations and discussions prepared from the workshop transcript and slides. This summary presents recommendations made by individual speakers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The evaluation contains an overview of the national NET, description of Nebraska's NET curriculum and its evaluation and analysis, the instruments used, follow-up study on a sub-sample of children, and a special food consumption study. Nebraska was selected to provide Congress, OMB, federal oversight agencies, and advocacy groups with a comprehensive assessment of their Nutrition Education and Training (NET) Program's impact because sufficient implementation had occurred to evaluate the effects on students, teachers, and food service workers. Findings indicated that: teacher preparation usually took more time than expected; cooperation between teachers and food service personnel was not as good as anticipated; and the curriculum materials had mixed effects. Nutrition knowledge did increase for grades 1-3 and 4-6; food attitudes were not altered. Food preference for vegetables increased for students in grades 1-3; this was not so for grades 4-6. Food habits, plate waste, and the cost of the curriculum Experience Nutrition are discussed along with bias within the study. (kbc).
