Abstract

Background:Childhood obesity among children has surged to epidemic levels, with a significant portion of India’s population affected by morbid obesity in the 21st century. A concise module for primary care physicians to manage a case of childhood obesity in the Indian scenario as a physician of first contact at the community level is unavailable. The use of the ADDIE model for creating modules in medical education is not widespread in India and is relatively uncommon globally. Using the ADDIE model to develop a module in the pediatrics curriculum is relatively uncommon.
Aim:Impact of modular teaching among 3rd prof part II students in Pediatrics
