Lesson plan — Diabetes: DM class 2

The moments of the class

• Review — DM class 1. General diabetes, T1DM, T2DM, and complications.
• Pre-class simulation. The case before the content.
• Treatment. Goals, choice, and follow-up.
• Oral medications. Classes and the place of each option.
• Insulin. When to start and how to organize the regimen.
• Prescription. A complete prescription, built step by step.

1. Review — DM class 1

Fifteen minutes. The review revisits the general concepts, the types of diabetes, and the complications before moving on to treatment.

2. Pre-class simulation

Fifteen timed minutes, before any slide. The button opens the hub catalog already on this class's chapter: the student picks the patient there, without searching the whole library.

• Consultation conducted in writing, with item-by-item feedback at the end.
• It is the group's baseline — what the class does before seeing the content.
• The management missing here is what the treatment class comes to build.

3. Class — Diabetes treatment

4. Order within the class

• Oral medications. Classes, indications, and safety.
• Insulin. Indication, initiation, adjustment, and follow-up.
• Step-by-step prescription. The prescription appears large, on a white sheet, to be copied and corrected together.

5. Supporting material

6. Wrap-up

• Check of the complete prescription.
• Revisiting the treatment decision points.
• The heart failure class begins with a review of this class, focused on treatment.
