Abstract
Life Skill education is a participatory learning programme aimed at promoting positive and adaptive behaviour by assisting individual in developing and practicing psycho-social skill that minimize risk factors and maximize protective factors. Life Skill is believed to be derived from Western Culture. But the investigator realizes that life skills were an integral part of our ancient educational system. Stories can play a major role for in life skill education. It is the sound of mind and poem of emotions. Life Skill Theories can be transmitted precisely through stories. We know Life Skill is not something to be only theoretical. But without theory, the purpose and significance of a concept won’t be clear. With theory, the awareness on skill can be acquired effectively and excellently. For this purpose stories are introduced in order to give critical awareness about life skill application and its role in the successful life. The investigator identifies life skill included in three narrative interpretations and designed a visual module based on these interpretations. The mean scores on awareness of life skill for visual media and narrative interpretations group are not significantly different. This concludes that the visual media and narrative interpretation are equally important in generating awareness on life skill among student teachers. It would be a way of empowering youth to fulfil their life motives and their dreams.
