Abstract
This study examined the impact of an experiential learning project for dietetics students on attitudes toward diabetes management. A questionnaire was used to compare attitudes before and after the project. This questionnaire was also given to a control class. Pre- and postsurvey results diverged between the 2 groups. To further examine the impact of the experimental team, a content analysis was done on journals submitted by the students for the experiential project. The barriers to following the planned diabetes management regimen that emerged from the content analysis were similar to issues reported in the literature from people with diabetes.
