Effectiveness of Video Assisted Teaching on Testicular Self Examination Among Young Adult Men

Abstract

The present investigation assessed how a video-assisted teaching programme worked to teach young adult men about self-examination of testicles (TSE). The study wanted to see if the programme could increase the knowledge and awareness of testicular self -examination. The study included 35 male scholars aged 18–19 years, selected through convenient sampling.
The result before the study showed that a lot of participants did not know much about the subject and the score was 82.9% poor and 17.1% average score, with none of the participants had good knowledge. After the participants watched video lectures the result was very different. This time 97.1% of participants had good knowledge and only 2.9% remained in the average category. The video lectures really helped the participants learn more and the score went up from 9.66 ± 2.92 to 18.23 ± 2.74 which is an improvement. This show that the educational programme using video lectures is very effective. Additionally, inconsequential association was observed between pre-test knowledge levels and demographic variables such as age (p = 0.409), education (p = 0.731), or place of residence (p = 0.217).
The findings underline how much the video assisted teaching programmes increase awareness and promotes practices and help to identify signs related to testicular cancer among young men.
