Introduction

Whether an infant is breastfed or not is important for short- and long-term health in childhood. Breastfeeding in the first half year of life is clearly the best choice for children's nourishment and well-being. Therefore, this module focuses on breastfeeding, subdivided into three units in order to provide the user with comprehensive up-to-date information on breastfeeding issues.

How to best follow this module

For your own coordination and scheduling: To go through this entire module which contains three units, you will need about 420 minutes (between 90 -180 minutes for each unit). Downloading further literature or using our integrated links will take additional time.

Every unit consists of a self-assessment test at the beginning, different lessons and a final knowledge test at the end. During the course of the module, the learner will benefit from a number of learning tools, including self-assessment tests, graphics, expert videos, a discussion forum and an online case-based training.

To make better use of the teaching material and consequently a better learning experience overall, we suggest that the learner first should go through the units, follow by the case-based training and only after that she or he should attempt the final knowledge tests.
