Depending on the interests of the group, Session 6 can be broadly covered in a single 90- <strong>to</strong> 20minute<br />
meeting, or the information can be delivered over three 60- <strong>to</strong> 90-minute sessions <strong>to</strong> offer<br />
greater depth. The session is divided in<strong>to</strong> three parts for your convenience. To determine how<br />
many meetings <strong>to</strong> devote <strong>to</strong> learning specifcally about diabetes, use the participants’ responses<br />
on the Pre–Session Questionnaire, or ask the group <strong>to</strong> decide.<br />
If Session 6 is conducted in one meeting, plan <strong>to</strong> spend at least 90 minutes, including a break (for<br />
physical activity and restroom use). Combine the learning objectives, materials and handouts,<br />
and advance preparation for Parts , 2, and 3 of this session in<strong>to</strong> one meeting. See section<br />
“Materials, Supplies, Handouts, and Equipment” in each part.<br />
