Abstract

In this study, we explore comparing mothers’ knowledge of health education conducted through web-based audio-visual media between the intervention group and the control group who only read books on maternal and child health. This study employed criteria for the respondents: mothers who have toddlers, both in the control and treatment groups. The respondents were asked to fill out a questionnaire ( post-test). Meanwhile, for the control group, after the pre-test, the respondents read a book on maternal and child health for 10 minutes, then continued filling out the questionnaire (post-test). Health education through web applications is more effective with statistical values, 60 for pre-test scores and 80 for post-test scores (p = 0.000), while the score of education which is only by reading books from the control group, shows the same score for both pre and post-test score, 70 (p = 0.960). Health education through web-based applications consisting of videos about the growth and development of toddlers and stunting can increase mother’s knowledge about monitoring the growth and development of toddlers and is expected to prevent stunting
