Nurse Educator will create a lesson plan on the healthcare topic of your choice. Discuss how will you teach this and Who are you teaching to.

Teach Type 2 diabetes care to three or more patients.
Design a lesson plan template on your own using textbook examples or obtain a template from free web sources.
A lesson plan may be typed in landscape view with columns and will need to include the following five headings:
Learning Objectives,
Content Outline,
Teaching Strategies,
Technologies,
Evaluation Methods
Include the main topic for the presentation,
date,
and place of presentation, time (from/to), mode of delivery (in person or virtually), and the number of adults in attendance.
Sections of the teaching plan will need to be organized and contain the following:
S.M.A.R.T. Learning Objectives, a minimum of five that relate to your topic
A content outline for each of five learning objectives
Document teaching strategies used where applicable for each learning objective
A list of any technologies, props, or other devices used to enhance the teaching-learning session
A list of evaluation methods that will be used for each learning objective, i.e., discussions, question and answer sessions, small group work, case studies, post-test or other evaluation of teaching form
Briefly evaluate and summarize the learning outcomes from your session. Submit your teaching plan and summary to the week six assignment link in the course
Format: APA Style (7th Edition) for title page and references as needed.

Introduction

Diabetes can have detrimental health and economic impacts on patients, families, and the community if not addressed well. Diabetes is a chronic illness that occurs either when the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin or when the body fails to effectively use the insulin it produces (Petersmann et al., 2019). Insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar, plays an integral role in diabetes. uncontrolled diabetes is often marked by hyperglycemia or raised blood sugar. Patient education is important both for the primary prevention of diabetes and management of the disease after its occurrence e. Health care providers have a responsibility to inform patients and society about the dangers of diabetes as well as management or prevention measures. Literature suggests that people who know about diabetes can support themselves and manage their conditions, hence, tend to remain healthier than those who do not (Petersmann et al., 2019). In that regard, this paper presents a lesson plan to educate patients about type 2 diabetes.

How to Evaluate the Learning Outcome?

Apart from the objective assessments, there will be an overall assessment to evaluate the learning outcomes. Pre and Post-tests will be utilized to gauge the learners’ understanding. The learning will take some tests, cutting across the entire objectives, before beginning the lesson. They will also take another test after the completion of the lessons. According to Stewart (2019), the pre and post-testing assessment model is effective in examining the change in overall critical thinking among learners. In this particular, case, the effectiveness of the program will be determined based on the score of learners. For instance, if there is a significant improvement in the learners’ scores, then the teaching lesson was effective. On the other hand, if there is no improvement, reduction, or insignificant increase in the scores in the post-testing then the learning program was not effective. Another way to measure the overall learning outcome is through interviews with the learners (Stewart, 2019). They may provide their experiences during the lessons and state whether or not the lesson was helpful. The instructor may ask the learners specific questions related to the learning content and see how they answer. The interview can provide good insights into the effectiveness of the learning program.

Conclusion

Diabetes is one of the most common chronic illnesses that can cause detrimental health influences if not managed well. Many patients experience severe symptoms and complications related to diabetes due to a lack of knowledge regarding care and treatment. Patient education can help prevent such bad outcomes. In that regard, this paper presented a lesson plan that will be used to educate 10 adult patients regarding type 2 diabetes care. All-important sections include learning objectives, content outline, and teaching strategies. Technologies and evaluation methods have all been described. Pre and post-testing mode alongside interviews will be applied to evaluate the overall learning outcome.
