Best Practices in Curricula Revisions: Using the Evidence-Based Eating Smart • Being Active as an Exemplar.

This article describes the processes employed to revise the widely used curriculum, Eating Smart • Being Active. Because of its popularity among nutrition education programs serving the low-income population, the curriculum developers felt it was important to share the revision process after the release of the 2015-2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Extensive feedback during formative evaluation, updated content from the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, and a modern look resulted in a fully revised curriculum released in 2017. Program leaders should have confidence that their educators will be able to implement this evidence-based curriculum with fidelity. An outcome evaluation of the revised Eating Smart • Being Active curriculum is recommended.
