Enabling Valuation of Nutrition Integration into MBBS Program

Table 1

Students’ feedback when asked, “Are there any improvements you could suggest for the session?”

Session	Overall theme	Selection of quotes
Part 1: interactive lecture	Some students indicated they would have liked additional lecture time given the broad scope of nutritional interventions and others indicated additional practical exercises would be beneficial.	“I enjoyed the power point lecture and wished it could have been longer”; “More focus on mechanisms of action”; “Considering the vast scope of nutrition and health, session was a brief overview”; “Exemplar video examples of experts taking cases and providing advice”; “Maybe less of a focus on research and more practical tips on approaching weight loss with our patients”; “Best ways to convince people to change their diet”
Part 2: practical case studies	More students were in favor of the practical applications over the research details.	“More interactive activities and shorter lecture”; “Breaking up lecture with more activities to maintain interest”; “Spend more time doing cases”; “Case studies at the end were most useful. Not sure whether these could be worked in throughout to be even more interactive?”
Part 2: practical case studies: subset who participated in the videotaped role plays	These sessions were generally well received	“Really great, interactive, educational session”; “Very good”; “Interesting”; “I found this session much more interesting and applicable then the first. I will try and eat better as a result of what I have learned. Good session overall”
