Summary
Web Based Instruction (WBI) significantly improved safety knowledge, accident prevention practices, and motivation in 3rd graders compared to traditional methods. This digital approach offers a more effective learning experience for elementary safety education.
Area of Science:
- Educational Technology
- Pedagogy
- Child Safety
Context:
- Elementary school safety education faces challenges with traditional teaching methods.
- Developing engaging and effective digital learning tools is crucial for improving student outcomes.
- Web-based instruction offers a scalable solution for safety training in schools.
Purpose:
- To develop and evaluate a Web Based Instruction (WBI) program for safety education.
- To assess the impact of the WBI program on 3rd-grade elementary students' knowledge, practice, and motivation regarding accident prevention.
- To compare the effectiveness of WBI with traditional textbook-based instruction.
Summary:
- A Web Based Instruction (WBI) program was developed using multimedia software and tested on 144 3rd-grade students.
- The experimental group received WBI lessons, while the control group received textbook-based instruction.
- Data analysis revealed that the WBI program led to longer-lasting improvements in accident prevention knowledge, practice, and motivation compared to traditional methods.
Impact:
- The WBI program demonstrated superior effectiveness in enhancing safety knowledge and practices among elementary students.
- The study highlights the motivational benefits of WBI for accident prevention education.
- Results suggest WBI is a valuable tool for improving safety instruction in elementary school settings.
