Abstract
Vision impairment is one of a health problem among school students. This study aimed at investigating the effects of a Capacity Development Program on knowledge and practices among student leaders for visual examination in a school through Activity Based Learning (ABL) at Wat Weruwan School, Chiang Mai. The sample consisted of 33 student leaders. The instruments used in this study included a general information questionnaire, knowledge assessment form on visual examination, practice assessment form on visual examination, and a capacity development program for student leaders. The overall content validity indexwas 0.93 and reliability of knowledge assessment form and practices form were 0.77 and 1.00, respectively. The research was divided into three phases: pre-activity, implementation, and evaluation. The data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, means, standard deviation, a paired sample t-test and McNemar test. The results showed that student leaders had higher average scores of visual examination knowledge with statistical significance (p<.001) and student leaders had a more accurate ability of visual examination practices at the school with statistical significance (p<.001). Therefore, we can use a Capacity Development Program to develop the capacity of student leaders for visual examination.
