2. Biologin och naturkunskapens roll i kost- och hälsoundervisning. : En kvalitativ studie om målsättning och undervisningsstrategier från ett gymnasielärareperspektiv.
Master-uppsats, Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för biologi och miljö (BOM)Sammanfattning : In Sweden, food-related education is vaguely incorporated in several mandatory high school subjects but not much is known about how it is incorporated in the biology and natural science subjects. This study aimed to understand how Swedish high school biology and natural science teachers approach and contribute to food-related education within and across subjects. LÄS MER
3. The state of social media usage to fight malnutrition among children under the age of five years in Tanzania
Magister-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informatik och mediaSammanfattning : This study has evaluated how Tanzania Food and Nutrition Centre (TFNC), a government institution overseeing nutrition, uses social media to enhance the nutrition literacy of caregivers and parents of children under the age of five years. The study contributes to knowledge on how Tanzania’s resource-constrained health sector’s nutrition communication can benefit from social media by answering the following research questions: Which social media platforms and features does TFNC use to share nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years? What kinds of nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years does TFNC share on social media? How is nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years posted on TFNC social media pages packaged? And, how frequently is nutrition knowledge pertaining to children under the age of five years repeated on TFNC social media pages? These questions have been answered from a social-behavioral change communication perspective that has combined the Media Ecology Theory and the Theory of Planned Behavior. LÄS MER
