Risk-taking. Knowing when to say no

Description

For adolescents making the transition to young adulthood, risk-taking activities are an essential part of the process. With this program, you can help your students to distinguish between positive risks-like trying out for a sport or learning to drive-and negative risks as well as to seriously consider the ramifications of substance abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, road rage, and bullying/cyberbullying. The development and shaping of personal values, so vital to good decision-making, are also addressed. A useful tool for introducing a discussion on high-stakes adolescence issues. Correlates to National CTE Organizational Standards (including the provisions of the Perkins Act)
