Abstract
Yunnan Normal University has received awards for HIV/AIDS education and prevention among Chinese universities. Therefore, exploring their education methods and activities could provide a guideline for other universities to develop their education plan. This Single-Case Study has three objectives:1) to study peer education activities increasing students’ learning about HIV/AIDS and safe sex practice in Yunnan Normal University, 2) to review HIV/AIDS and safe sex learning content discussed in its Peer education program, and 3) to study major aspects contributing to the success of students’ learning about HIV/AIDS prevention and safe sex practice through a peer education program. Three data collection techniques were a semi-structured interview, observation, and document review. The participants include six teachers who have worked in HIV/AIDS education or safe sex education activities for more than five years and nine students in grade 4. The research results include 1) healthy living perspectives and sexual morality are the essential contents of HIV/ AIDS education in Chinese universities, 2) a good relationship between the educators and learners is vital to eliminate embarrassment when teaching sensitive knowledge, 3) organizing activities by well-trained peer educators is one of the most effective methods when conducting HIV/ AIDS education.
