[Development and experimentation of a health promotion and health education module in the context of an on-line distance learning programme].
The article presents the evolution of a health promotion and health education training module within the contexts of the development of a new on-line learning programme. Relying upon validated theoretical models, each step of the module's development is explicitly described, from the needs assessment phase to the experimental one. A detailed needs assessment brings to light the limitations of a traditional distance-learning module with regard to the very specific needs of students. The learning objectives were formulated to catch up with and be more in sync with the skills and competencies held and carried out by the educators in the field. The teaching methods were selected for their attributes of being more active and more diverse. Formative evaluation is introduced and certificatory evaluation aims to corroborate with the teaching objectives. Immediate results from experimentation done in these early stages gives prominence to the added value of this new on-line module, which appears to be much more adapted to the students' needs.
