Keywords:
Digital Health literacy, Learning management strategies, Pregnant womenAbstract
Pregnant women need sufficient health knowledge to practice and reduce risks, enhance their pregnancy care competence, and achieve good health outcomes. Specific health information and healthcare skills are crucial factors that determine good health behavior. Health professionals must explore digital media-based learning strategies to improve health knowledge in pregnant women, making it more contemporary and effective. The author presents a strategy for promoting digital health literacy in pregnant women, incorporating three approaches 1) Self-Regulated Learning Strategies: Encouraging pregnant women to take control of their own learning process. 2) Five Skill Improve Health Literacy: Fostering five key skills to enhance health literacy in pregnancy. This includes organizing learning activities using Bloom’s taxonomy of learning domains. 3)Empowerment: Utilizing empowerment principles rooted in social cognitive learning theory to develop digital health literacy skills in pregnant women. These strategies draw from the foundations of social cognitive learning theory and can be applied to future efforts to improve digital health literacy skills in pregnant women.
