Examining Curriculums in Terms of Healthy Nutrition Outcomes in the Context of Class Level

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the healthy nutrition outcomes gained by curriculums introduced and implemented in 2018, focusing on grades and lesson durations. Designed with a qualitative research approach, the study employed the document review technique. Data collected from the analysis of six different curriculums were evaluated using content analysis. Through analysis, 38 healthy nutrition outcomes were identified and categorized under themes after coding. Findings from the evaluation of lesson durations and class levels indicate that healthy nutrition outcomes are not evenly distributed across class levels. The Science Curriculum(SC) does not include any healthy nutrition outcomes for the 5th grade, and the Physical Education and Games Curriculum(PEGC) excludes them for the 2nd grade. Similarly, the Secondary School Biology Curriculum(SSBC) includes such outcomes only in the 9th grade. Regarding lesson durations, the average time allocated to healthy nutrition outcomes was determined as 2.5–3 hours in the Life Sciences Curriculum(LSC), 1.5–3 hours in the SC, 1.5–2.5 hours in the Secondary School Physical Education and Sports Curriculum(SEPESC), and 8.5 hours in the SSBC. However, lesson durations were not specified for the outcomes in PEGC and SEPESC. These results emphasize the need to distribute outcomes more equitably and systematically across class levels in alignment with pedagogical principles. Furthermore, organizing healthy nutrition outcomes with spiral structure is recommended to ensure learning continuity and prevent incomplete understanding. This study highlights the importance of adopting planned and systematic approach in curriculum design to enhance the effective integration and balanced distribution of healthy nutrition outcomes.
