Abstract

This paper designed an introductive Nutrition and Health Class for grade 11 with the technology provided by the online instruction platform Nearpod, based on pedagogical research and theory. We further analyze the effectiveness and benefits of the technology we applied technically and pedagogically. The paper consists of four sections: In the Introduction, we introduce the background and the reasons for combining liberal education of Nutrition with online education basing on the studies of teenager dietary patterns from the USA and Hong Kong over a decade. In Analysis, we further discuss the advantage of online education and its technology compared with traditional education in four aspects: facility, discussion, group dynamic, and feedback. In Pedagogy and Technology, we discuss the strategies for improving online education based on pedagogical research and theory. In Course Content, we design an online course about liberal education of nutrition and health for Grade 11, taking advantage of the online course platform Nearpod. We introduce the basic construction and the purpose of the course. The purpose of the course is to raise students’ interest in nutrients and health and apply the knowledge to improve their eating patterns by introducing them to the basic knowledge of Carbohydrates and health. In Conclusion, we summarize the previous discussion and further examine the pedagogical potency of the technology.
