Diarrhea, soil-transmitted helminth infection and malnutrition are leading causes of child mortality in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). To reduce the prevalence of these diseases, effective interventions for adequate water, sanitation, and hygiene (WaSH) should be implemented. This paper describes the design of a cluster-randomized controlled trial that will compare the efficacy of four school-based WaSH interventions for improving children’s health literacy, handwashing, and nutrition. Interventions consisted of (1) WaSH policy reinforcement; (2) low-, medium-, or high-volume health education; (3) hygiene supplies; and (4) WaSH facilities (e.g., toilets, urinals, handwashing basins) improvements. We randomly allocated school clusters from the intervention …

The health of the students in a class is of vital importance to every teacher because of the relationship between health of the students and their performance in school. Especially is this true of the Physical Education instructor and coach, whose job it is to work with the students in physical activities. High school teachers assume that the students in the elementary school have been taught the correct health practices. Whether the student is practicing the habit taught is a question that few teachers can answer. The only basis the teacher has for his answer to this question is observation …

Health work is so fundamental and so important that it cannot be left out of the high school course without seriously handicapping the individual, the state, and the nation. The recent state Iaws regarding health education place it, in effect, on a basis with other subjects. In other words, health education becomes one of the five major subjects running through the entire curriculum.

Stress Pertinent Facts In Health Teaching, Belva W. Swalwell

In the past, much of the health information which high school pupils acquired was handed down to them traditionally. They listened to what their elders had to say and seldom questioned the validity of it. Assertions to the effect that a buckeye carried in one's pocket would prevent rheumatism; that a piece of salt fat pork bound about the neck would counteract diphtheria; or that some malodorous substances would, if breathed, ward off certain communicable diseases were considered as truths and were passed on to the next generation. Since health is now taught in our high schools by teachers adequately …
