“…Paediatric specialist nurses, children, parents and secondary school teachers contributed to the development of an age-appropriate curriculum which employs a range of teaching methods and a modular approach, building on skills acquired during the week. Development and evaluation of the programme has been guided by recommendations of the Medical Research Council (MRC)14 and are described in previous reports 1517. In this paper, our aims were to assess (i) the quality of the curriculum through independent evaluation, (ii) acceptability to families (willingness to take part, have time off school or work) and (iii) impact on outcome measures (HBA1c, weight, diary reports of hypoglycaemia, QoL).…”

“…15 During the development phase of the project, we worked with young people, parents, educationalists and school teachers, using the constructivist educational theory, to develop a package which would meet the very varied learning needs of adolescents. 16 The pilot phase involved 11-year-olds to 16-year-olds (n=48) from three centres and demonstrated significant improvements in QOL and self-efficacy at 3 and 6 months postintervention. Glycaemic control showed no significant change overall, though there was a trend to improvement in those with the poorest control at baseline and also in the younger age group (11-13 years).…”

“…Novas tecnologias podem ser atrativas, como vídeos, CDs, jogos de computador, mensagem de texto com informações e lembretes telefônicos (23). A participação em encontros promovidos por associações de diabetes ou experiências em acampamentos educacionais também podem ter ótimo resultado, além de iniciativas criativas, como o uso de bonecos e fantoches, na tentativa de seduzir a criança para seu autocuidado (19).…”
