I have been an educator for two years, in my role as a performance nutritionist. This work has currently been centred around teacher-led workshops via power point presentation.

I use a structured flow for my sessions, with learning objectives setting a clear learning journey. Using Bloom's taxonomy, the sessions gradually move into more complex learning.

My slides are short and snappy, focusing on discussion and personalised question and answer throughout. The sessions are filled with tasks, slowly increasing in complexity, such as moving from identification early in the session towards the learner creating their own ideas on the topic. With this, we can see a clear progression and also identify any key areas that may need revisiting.

I like to use the acronym E.T.A for my sessions, as I think it is relevant to the flow of learning necessary for nutrition.
Explain - I explain the scientific principles of the topic and the impact it can have on the individual / team / company
Translate - Scientific principle is translated into simple ideas and understanding of foods, meals, recipes, behaviours and habits.
Apply - The principles, and the actual foods are now applied to the context and needs. How it works in the real world, and when it may or may not be useful to you as a performer / average gym goer or a high performing officer worker.

There is clear education science that goes into my sessions, and they are successful in achieving the desired learning effects.
