The main purposes were promoting the hypertension knowledge, the self-directed tendency, and improving the health education method through this intervention. We selected three spots in Taipei county- Shin-dian, Shang-chi and Shu-lin. According to the different sponsors and available human resources we built three extension models-the public health clinic, the cooperation and the school centered models. The facilitators received the courses of self-directed learning before the intervention. The intervention included the explanation of physical examination, needs assessment, small group works. 169 people participated in this program. The intervention had good results across three models. The program improved the participants' knowledge, self-directed tendency, and dieting behaviors. There was an increase in milk consumption, and a decrease in fat consumption. The participants said they had experienced a very excellent learning, and hoped to have another chance to learn about other health issues. The facilitators thought the self-directed learning technique was a good health education method even though it needed much resources to accomplish it. |
