Design and Evaluation of e-Learning Package for Breast Cancer Prevention for Iranian Women

Given the high prevalence of breast cancer and its incidence and mortality worldwide, it seems that prevention is the best way to control it. The challenge facing e-learning is the production of appropriate, usable, and effective content. In this study, an electronic educational package titled “Breast Cancer Prevention” was designed and evaluated.

This research was conducted in three main phases: (1) preparation of educational content, (2) evaluation and localization of evidence-based content, and (3) evaluation from experts’ and end users’ point of view.

The educational content in the field of early detection methods, risk factors, the role of nutrition in prevention, the role of physical activity in prevention, and the early signs of breast cancer were approved by experts with high validity. The evaluation of the electronic content in different formats produced by the target group also showed that the content scored above 4.3 of 5.

According to the evaluations of the training package, this package can be used as an acceptable product based on up-to-date scientific evidence in the field of breast cancer prevention.
