Abstract

The present study was aimed to assess the effectiveness of programmed instruction on knowledge among primary school teachers about management health problems in primary school children. A quasi-experimental, one-group pre- and post-test research design was adopted to carry out the study. A self- administered knowledge questionnaire was used to collect the data among samples who were selected through purposive sampling technique. Results evidenced that there was a significant improvement in the overall posttest knowledge score while compared with overall pretest knowledge score. The calculated value was significantly higher than the table value, hence it is evident that the posttest knowledge of primary school teachers on management of common health problems were increased through the programmed instruction. Thus, increasing knowledge of primary school teachers regarding management of common preschool children health issues could provide an opportunity to protect the majority of young children.
