The purpose of this study is to develop a new educational model : the TYA method 2002 for public health education, and to investigate the learning process of the participants in the salt restriction class held in S village in Aomori Prefecture. The subjects were 42 people in the class above mentioned. The model developed, the TYA method, means Try Angle : in other words, a trial to construct new theory, policy and strategy in health education. This method has the following two original features : 1) participants start and continue their learning based on a scenario, that is a story about one couple's daily life in which some problems of lifestyle are included. The learning process is self-directed. The learning comes from each participant's ideas and speech in group discussion, that is to say, from their rich knowlege and life experiences. 2) the learning is supported by a tutor who supports the learners' independent learning. Through this TYA method, the self-directed learning process of the participants was observed. The main results were that, in the learning process, 1) participants could learn through problem solving based on the scenario. 2) with the suppot of the tutor, participants could learn through independence and cooperation. 3) participants could learn because the contents of the scenario were closely connected to real life habits.
