Curriculum Fidelity and Modification
Use of evidence-based curricula helps provide the most effective nutrition education interventions to CalFresh Healthy Living's target audience. Using curricula as designed ensures the quality of the nutrition education. Modifying curriculum is sometimes necessary and allowable if the curriculum does not meet the needs of an agency or target audience. The links below provide access to a document outlining the curriculum modification process and a training on curriculum fidelity.
Recommended Evaluation Tools and SMART Objectives
SMART is a mnemonic which stands for Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Time. It is a way of developing specific goals for a project. Each of the CalFresh Healthy Living, University of California (CFHL, UC) program's curricula have a specific set of SMART objectives. Ideally, participants taught with each curriculum will achieve the goals listed in that curriculum's SMART objective. A listing of adult, family-centered and youth curricula, youth engagement approaches, and PSE strategies is available here on the CFHL, UC Evaluation page, listed as the Recommended Evaluation Tools and SMART Objectives.
