PUBLIC HEALTH

Plastic is a group of the different chemical substance having a high molecular weight called polymers, that changes from the thin consistency of plastic into solid at the final state. Polymers are large molecules that are built up by repetitive linking of many smaller units called monomer. In this present study the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge regarding hazards of plastic use among high school children at Sri Ram Janki Inter College Bithoor, Kanpur was assessed. The research approach was quantitative evaluator approach and research design was one group pre-test and post-test design. The population was high school children selected by non-probability convenient sampling technique. The sample size was 60. The setting of the study was Sri Ram Janki Inter College Bithoor at Kanpur. The mean total knowledge score before the intervention was 10.615 which has increased 26.5 after intervention the paired ‘t’ test 34.298 was found to be significant a very high levels (p=2.00). The above inference it is made clear that the structured teaching programme has a positive impact on knowledge regarding hazards of plastic use (p=2.00>0.05 level) so H1 was accepted. We concluded that the study significantly proofs that there is a remarkable improvement in the knowledge of high school children regarding the hazards of plastic use after a structured teaching programme
