Therefore, objectives for this study are (1) to determine the level of knowledge, attitude, practices and student performance among student TKP3201 (no mentor); (2) To determine level of knowledge, attitude, practices and student performance among student TKP4203 (with mentor); and (3) To compare level of knowledge, attitude, practices and student performance between student TKP3201 (no mentor) with TKP4203 (with mentor). 109 students participated as respondents which respectively consist of 42 students from TKP3201 and 67 students from TKP4203.
