研究组 & 干预措施
Web-Tel Nutrition Education
This model consists of 3 nutrition education lessons. For members of this group, open access to the weblog will be possible and they can enter the weblog with their username and password, to be sure that the participants of the other two groups will not access to this information. Three lessons
Group Education
The sessions are held monthly for 3 months (3 seminars in total) and each educational session takes at least 2 hours (at least 6 hours in total). Educational content in the Web-Tel group and the group education are the same. It is a great opportunity for the participants to ask their questions
Control Group
All the three groups will receive usual care, but the control group will receive usual care by itself. Usual care means diabetes self-management education (DSME) that is provided by a team consists of a general practitioner, and a nutritionist. The educational sessions are held on a weekly basis
