A public health nurse is planning a community education session for adults to address the rising rates of Type 2 diabetes in the area. Which strategy is most effective for engaging the audience and promoting positive behavioral changes during the session?
Providing handouts and pamphlets about managing blood sugar levels.
Facilitating a group discussion where participants can share experiences and ask questions.
Delivering a lecture on the importance of dietary changes for diabetes prevention.
Focusing the session on the benefits of regular physical activity.
Interactive teaching strategies, such as group discussions where participants can share experiences and ask questions, are most effective in achieving behavioral changes. This approach fosters active participation, enhances understanding, and promotes personal relevance of the materials presented. Lecture-based strategies, while informative, may not encourage the same level of engagement or behavioral shifts. Similarly, providing written materials and resources might not suffice without reinforcing the content through interactive methods. Focusing the session on physical activity is too narrow in scope, as diabetes prevention and management require a multifactorial approach, including diet, exercise, and education.
