Several years ago I was thrilled to have students inquire about ways they could continue to tap into evidence-based, current nutrition news and hot topics after the semester ended. While I shared credible nutrition news links, I also decided to set up my own educational Facebook page to post not only links to media stories, but provide a bit of context, relevance, and clarification from my own perspective and experience - and to invite students, colleagues, family, and friends to follow. I'd love you to check out Jamie Pope Nutrition Prof! Might find some media stories - along with medical/scientific articles to share with your students in class or in your own social media - or info for your own nutrition questions. I would usually have a relevant media story showing on the screen as students walked into class and then open class with a brief discussion of the science behind the headline as pertained to that day's focus. Or for online classes I would include as part of an announcement or have as screen share as students joined an online meeting. A critical outcome of a nutrition course - or any course really - is to be able to evaluate social and news media stories through a scientific lens. Would also appreciate any ideas for posts or feedback. Best! Jamie Pope jpopenutrition@gmail.com or jamie.pope@vanderbilt.edu
