520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. toward helmet use after participating in the program. Data were collected from five grade 7 classrooms. Two classrooms (n=37) receiving the program, while three classrooms, (n=37) formed the control group (no intervention). Results on the Knowledge Test, and the Student Helmet Use Questionnaire were compared between intervention and control students. A significant pre-post change in level of knowledge scores was observed in the intervention group. Likewise, intervention group students showed a significant increase in their intention to wear a helmet in future. The successful program delivery illustrated the usefulness of linking public health promotion to standard classroom curriculum. This program exemplified the fundamental elements of knowledge translation and knowledge development, and is therefore recommended as a positive approach to delivering the public health message of helmet use for head safety.
