<![CDATA[Musculoskeletal injuries in school children are one of the problems found, especially in rural areas. Providing health education on first aid for musculoskeletal injuries can build knowledge, motivation, and self-efficacy, so it is important to develop new strategies. This study analyzes the comparative effect of local language first aid short film media and the "“Toma Cemasâ€â€ module on students' knowledge, motivation, and self-efficacy. This study used a quasi-experimental method with two groups pretest-posttest. The first group received health education through local language short films and the second group received a ““Toma Cemasâ€â€ module on first aid for musculoskeletal injuries. With a population of 234 students, this study involved 84 samples divided into two groups, each consisting of 42 respondents using a stratified random sampling technique. The results of the independent t-test to assess the comparison of knowledge show p value 0.045 (p 0.05) and self–efficacy show 0.005 (p value 0.05). There is a significant difference in the mean of knowledge and self -efficacy between the two groups there. The motivation variable shows a p value of 0.141 (p 0.05) so there is no significant difference in mean value of motivation. ““Toma Cemasâ€â€ Module is more suitable for increasing students' knowledge because the module's materials are in written form accompanied by animated images and explanations. Local language short films have a more effective influence than the ““Toma Cemasâ€â€ Module suitable for increasing students' self-efficacy related to the use of local languages, which help students feel comfortable in the process of learning first aid in rural areas.]]>
