Health Education for Youth in Primary Schools

摘要

In the U.S. full scale attention is being directed to personal choice health behavior as a major component of primary prevention to deal with current disease and disability problems. The purpose of this presentation is to describe two innovative school health curriculum projects that are achieving unprecedented success in the U.S. Both are carried on under the auspices of the Federal Government's Bureau of Health Education and both are comprehensive health education models which put into practice many of the basic principles which health educators have long talked about, but which have seldom been assembled into operating and diffusable models.
