摘要：Less than five percent of professional development (PD) opportunities for
educators in Iowa are related to health and physical education (Iowa Area
Education Agencies, 2017). Even fewer opportunities are specific to health and
nutrition-related disciplines such as family and consumer sciences (FCS). Iowa
educators are required to earn six license renewal credits every five years to
renew their teaching license (Iowa Board of Educational Examiners, 2018). This
article describes and evaluates a project designed to provide nutrition PD for
FCS educators that included technical content for high school nutrition and
health educators to improve nutrition self-efficacy, cooking skills and attitudes,
and eating competence.
