Email this article The Effect of The Teach-Back Method on The Knowledge and Skills of Health Workers Regarding The Results of Plotting Anthropometric Measurements of Toddlers at The Posyandu in The Working Area
Abstract
Research Methods: This research used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test post-test control group approach. Sixty volunteers were divided into two groups: the intervention group, which received the teach-back method, and the control group, which received conventional lecture-based training.
Research Result: The Mann-Whitney test showed a significant difference in the improvement of knowledge (p=0.001) and skills (p=0.003) among volunteers after the teach-back intervention.
Conclusion: Thus, the teach-back method effectively enhances the knowledge and skills of posyandu volunteers in explaining the results of toddler anthropometric plotting.
