Abstract

A 2-hour educational seminar focusing on fire and burn safety issues was developed, presented, and evaluated by the fire department. The eighth-grade class at a local junior high school was selected for the pilot site for the seminar. A pretest and posttest were developed to measure the informational gain and retention of learned material to the students. Test results showed a statistically significant improvement in burn and fire safety scores of the tested children.
