Introduction to the course
The course covers behaviour change models and techniques (for example motivational interviewing) as well as knowledge on how to develop interventions utilising internet and mobile phone technology. During the course the students will get training in writing grant and ethical applications.
The course consists of workshops, lectures, exercises and discussions. The students will write a project plan for an intervention study, which will include the following three phases: planning, implementation and evaluation. The students will orally present the project plan as well as be an opponent for another group’s project. It is anticipated that with the completion of this course, a more comprehensive understanding on how to develop the components of an intervention, as well as how to evaluate whether it was effective or not, will be reached.
