The importance of various prevention efforts, including implementing nutrition education especially among children and adolescents, is growing due to noncommunicable diseases like hypertension, obesity, and diabetes that are common among children and adults. Most studies conducted in the previous few decades have noted that using technology in learning environments—including computer-based software, web-based learning, and hardware—creates a remarkable learning and teaching environment. For health professionals like dietitians who provide nutrition education, the ease of data recording, easy transmission and re-accessibility increases the use of various technologies. These technologies present spesific challenges, such as rising costs, user information needs, and age-specific unsuitability. Wearable and artificial intelligence technologies allow individuals to be monitored instantly. With distance education technologies, the opportunity to reach experts regardless of time and place makes it easier to get the correct information. The use of photography and automatic recognition methods in determining the amount of food supports reaching accurate food consumption records. With systems where individuals can see and follow their own data, it becomes easier for individuals to monitor behavior changes. It is stated that, nutritional applications could be more effective when guidance is established based on the attitudes, students’ achievement, and experience. This review focused on the impacts of mobile and web-based nutrition education.

Teknoloji Beslenme Eğitimi Perspektiflerini Etkiler mi?

Öz

Çocuklardan yetişkinlere kadar yaygın olan hipertansiyon, obezite ve diyabet gibi bulaşıcı olmayan hastalıklar, başta çocuk ve ergenler olmak üzere beslenme eğitiminin yaygınlaştırılması da dahil olmak üzere çeşitli önleme stratejilerinin önemini artırmaktadır. Son yıllarda, bilgisayar tabanlı, yazılım, web tabanlı öğrenme ve donanım dahil olmak üzere öğrenme ortamlarında teknolojinin kullanılmasının hem öğrenme hem de öğretmede olağanüstü bir deneyim kazandırdığı çoğu araştırma tarafından dile getirilmektedir. Beslenme eğitimi veren diyetisyenler gibi sağlık profesyonelleri için veri kaydının kolaylığı, iletilmesinin ve yeniden erişilebilirliğinin kolay olması çeşitli teknolojilerin kullanımını artırmaktadır. Ancak bu teknolojilerin kullanımında maliyetlerin artması, kullanıcılar için bilgi gereksinimlerinin artması, her yaş grubunda kullanıma uygun olmaması gibi zorluklar bulunmaktadır. Giyilebilir ve yapay zeka teknolojilerinin kullanılması bireylerin anlık olarak takip edilmesine olanak sağlamaktadır. Uzaktan eğitim teknolojileri ile zaman ve mekandan bağımsız olarak uzmanlara ulaşma olanağı, doğru bilgiye ulaşmayı kolaylaştırmaktadır. Besin miktarının belirlenmesinde fotoğraf ve otomatik tanıma yöntemlerinin kullanılması, doğru besin tüketim kayıtlarına ulaşmayı desteklemektedir. Bireylerin kendi verilerini görebildiği ve takip edebildiği sistemler ile bireylerin davranış değişikliklerini takip etmesi kolaylaşmaktadır. Öğrencilerin tutumlarına, başarılarına ve deneyimlerine göre rehberlik oluşturulduğunda beslenme uygulamalarının daha etkili olabileceği belirtilmektedir. Bu derlemede mobil ve web tabanlı beslenme eğitiminin etkilerine odaklanılmıştır.
