The field of health and medical sciences has witnessed a surge of published research exploring the applications of ChatGPT. However, there remains a dearth of knowledge regarding its specific potential and limitations within the domain of nutrition. Given the increasing prevalence of nutrition-related diseases, there is a critical need to prioritize the promotion of a comprehensive understanding of nutrition. This paper examines the potential utility of ChatGPT as a tool for improving nutrition knowledge. Specifically, it scrutinizes its characteristics in relation to personalized meal planning, dietary advice and guidance, food intake tracking, educational materials, and other commonly found features in nutrition applications. Additionally, it explores the potential of ChatGPT to support each stage of the Nutrition Care Process. Addressing the prevailing question of whether ChatGPT can replace healthcare professionals, this paper elucidates its substantial limitations within the context of nutrition practice and education. These limitations encompass factors such as incorrect responses, coordinated nutrition services, hands-on demonstration, physical examination, verbal and non-verbal cues, emotional and psychological aspects, real-time monitoring and feedback, wearable device integration, and ethical and privacy concerns have been highlighted. In summary, ChatGPT holds promise as a valuable tool for enhancing nutrition knowledge, but further research and development are needed to optimize its capabilities in this domain.

Higher education institutions worldwide were compelled to deliver their courses online due to mobility restrictions and lockdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic. This sudden shift has disrupted the educational system leaving millions unprepared for the new mode of instruction. One critical area that received little attention during this transition is student assessment. Many assessment methods designed for face-to-face classes have been adapted for online learning without much consideration. The conversion to emergency remote education has likewise exacerbated existing and uncovered new socioeconomic issues that demand immediate action. A scoping review has been carried out to map the concepts and develop a socioeconomic inclusive assessment framework for online learning in higher education. This framework will serve as a guide in designing assessment tasks that are more socioeconomically inclusive, making online learning more equitable. This chapter offers practical implications for developing a more inclusive assessment design that is beneficial to a broader group of students.
