With so many educational apps and websites available, children can find help to figure their algebra question or write down a difficult literature assignment. These educational apps help make the learning experience easier for kids. AIM OF THE STUDY: To assess the effectiveness of Video assisted teaching on level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone among school children. OBJECTIVES: (1) To assess the pre and post test levels of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone among school children in control and experimental group. (2) To assess the effectiveness of Video assisted teaching on level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone among school children in experimental group. (3) To compare the post test level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone among school children in control and experimental group. (4) To associate the pre test level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone among school children with selected socio demographic variables in control and experimental group. HYPOTHESIS: • NH1; There will be no significant difference in pre and post level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone in experimental group and control group. • NH2: There will be no significant difference in post test level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone between experimental and control group. • NH3: There will be no significant association between pre test level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone among school children with selected socio demographic variables. METHODOLOGY: A Quasi-experimental pre-test and post test control group design was adopted for the study. The study was conducted at 2 Schools, Govt. High School, Radhapuram and Govt. High School, Vikkravandi, Villupuram. 100 samples were selected by using non probability purposive sampling technique. The pre and post test level of knowledge was assessed by using structured knowledge questionnaires in both groups. RESULTS: In control group among 50 samples in pre test level of knowledge inadequate knowledge is 48 (96%), Moderately adequate knowledge is 2 (4%)and none of them had Adequate knowledge. In post test level of knowledge, inadequate knowledge is 43 (86%), Moderately adequate knowledge is 7 (14%) and none of them had Adequate knowledge. The pre test mean is 6.3 with the standard deviation of 1.58; the post test mean was 7.04 with the standard deviation of 1.7. In experimental group among 50 samples pre test level of knowledge, inadequate knowledge is 46 (92%), Moderately adequate knowledge is 4 (8%) and none of them had Adequate knowledge. In post test level of knowledge, none of them had inadequate knowledge, Moderately adequate knowledge is 16 (32%) and Adequate knowledge is 34 (68%). Pre test mean is 7.24 with the standard deviation of 1.68; post test mean is 16.48 with the standard deviation of 1.8. The experimental group pre test mean is 7.24 and standard deviation is 1.68. The post test mean is 16.48 and standard deviation is 1.8. The mean difference of pre and post test is 9.24; standard error is 0.28. The ‘T’ value of experimental group is 33 is Highly Significant it indicates that the knowledge level of school children is improved after the video assisted teaching. Hence null hypothesis NH1 is rejected. The post test mean difference between the control and experimental group is 9.44 and standard error is 0.34. The ‘t’ value of post test knowledge is 27.76. Hence it indicates the video assisted teaching improves the level of knowledge regarding the advantages of mobile phone among school children. Hence null hypothesis NH2 is rejected. In control group pre test value there is an association between the level of knowledge with Religion and there is no association between age, sex, education of father, education of mother, occupation of father, occupation of mother, type of family, area of residence, birth order and type of mobile phone using. In experimental group pre test value there is no significant association between the level of knowledge with selected demographic variables. CONCLUSION: The finding of the study shows that in experimental group pre test mean is 7.24 and standard deviation is 1.68. The post test mean is 16.48 and standard deviation is 1.8. The mean difference of pre and post test is 9.24; standard error is 0.28. The ‘T’ value of experimental group is 33 it is Highly Significant. The post test mean difference between the control and experimental group is 9.44 and standard error is 0.34. The ‘T’ value of post test knowledge is 27.76. It indicates the video assisted teaching improved the level of knowledge regarding the advantages of mobile phone among school children. Hence the study concluded that video assisted teaching improves the level of knowledge regarding advantages of mobile phone.
