N2 - Specifically, we looked at the following two measures:
how did the HEC influence the knowledge, attitude, and practice of healthy living among medical
students? And, what were the learning experiences of the students during the HEC? Methods: Five
themes (exercise, food, healthy sleep, workplace stress and ageing) were divided among students.
They were asked to develop those themes with the help of posters, power point presentations,
community talks as well as video presentations. The carnival was held in the setting of two nearby
children?s schools. Students were evaluated by a panel of examiners with regards to learning objectives
as well as preparation and presentation. As part of evaluation, we developed 2 questionnaires.
