Abstract

Adolescents who face reproductive health issues without adequate support or understanding are likely to experience stress, anxiety and depression, which can affect their overall quality of life. This study aims to analyse the effectiveness of interactive education in improving reproductive health knowledge of high school students at Eskola Secundaria Colegio Sáo Miguel Arcanjo and Eskola Secundaria Geral 1912 Dom Boaventura Same Manufahi Timor-Leste. This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest approach involving two groups of high school students, namely an experimental group from Eskola Secundaria Colegio Sáo Miguel Arcanjo Same that received interactive education and a control group from Eskola Secundaria Geral 1912 Dom Boaventura Same that received traditional teaching methods. Data were collected through a questionnaire that measured various student variables before and after the educational intervention. The results showed that interactive education significantly improved students' reproductive health knowledge. In Eskola Secundaria Colegio Sáo Miguel Arcanjo, 48.6% of students had increased knowledge after the education, compared to 42.9% before the intervention. In contrast, in the control group (Eskola Secundaria Geral 1912 Dom Boaventura), only 11.4% of students achieved adequate knowledge after traditional education, while 88.6% remained in the insufficient knowledge category. In addition, high motivation to learn, good understanding of the material, engagement in discussions and teacher support influenced the success of interactive education. Interactive education was found to be effective in improving reproductive health knowledge among students of Eskola Secundaria Colegio Sáo Miguel Arcanjo, compared to conventional teaching methods. Therefore, a more interactive educational approach that supports active student engagement is recommended to be implemented in reproductive health education programmes in schools.

Abstract

Purpose: This community service activity aims to provide information to Women of Childbearing Age (WCA) about preconception care practices and the factors that influence them so they can optimise their preconception health. Methodology: This community service activity was conducted with students from Universitas Kusuma Husada Surakarta in Indonesia and students from the Instituto Ciência da Saúde (ICS) in Timor Leste. The activity was conducted via video conference in the form of a webinar accompanied by a question-and-answer session. Participants were given questionnaires before and after the webinar to measure their knowledge of preconception care practices and the factors that influence them. Results: The activity's results showed a 100.15% increase in knowledge of preconception care, with a p-value of 0.000. Conclusions: Community service activities in the form of providing education on preconception care practices and the factors that influence them are known to be effective in improving individuals' knowledge about preconception care. Limitations: This community service activity was conducted in the form of a webinar, so it was highly dependent on signal stability and there were limitations in the evaluation because it was conducted online. Contributions: This community service activity can motivate WCA to optimise their preconception health by increasing their knowledge about preconception care practices and the factors that influence them.
