Book Synopsis The Educator's Guide To Substance Abuse Prevention by : Sanford Weinstein
Download or read book The Educator's Guide To Substance Abuse Prevention written by Sanford Weinstein and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Educator's Guide to Substance Abuse Prevention is for educators and other school personnel who are concerned about student drug use and school violence. It will help them to appreciate and use their humanity, professional skills, educational ideals, and the school curriculum as tools for substance abuse prevention. Teachers' concerns are addressed in several ways. First, the text provides a guide through which they may resolve personal and professional concerns about the commitments, limits, and boundaries of their working relationships with students. Second, it describes tasks that teachers can perform and mental health issues they can address in creating classroom policies, procedures, and rules to promote healthful learning activity in the classroom. Third, the author summarizes and interprets research and theory about substance abuse as they apply specifically to educational prevention and to professional teaching practice--arguing that classroom management strategies, learning activities, and social interaction are a teacher's primary tools of prevention, and showing how teachers may use these tools in any curricular area and without direct reference to drugs. A highlight of this text is its emphasis on helping teachers to explore drug-related issues from within the context of their own curricular specialties and to integrate substance abuse prevention with the curriculum in many school subjects--including the arts, literature, social studies, history, government, science, and culture. Action-oriented prevention strategies based on these content areas are suggested. The Educator's Guide to Substance Abuse Prevention: *focuses primarily on teaching, learning, and prevention rather than on information about drugs; *helps teachers to better use what they already do, know, and are in order to respond competently, responsibly, and with sensitivity to the needs of their students; *attends to the needs of teachers who do prevention work and the needs of children who are the target of prevention efforts; *describes student disappointment and disillusionment with family, school, and community as sources of risk and the legitimate domain in which teachers may serve a curative role; *provides extensive coverage of historical, social, and cultural issues related to substance abuse and school violence; and *alerts teachers to the risk to children posed by extremist adult groups, prominent negative role models, popular culture, and peer pressure.

Download or read book Uncertain written by P.J. Gammarano M.A. J.D. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-08-25 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You`ll find all original short stories and poetic tales suitable as musical lyrics. Some items were written as far back at the 1970's! The otherwise non-descript book cover photograph depicts two "American Banzai" trees (NYC) which are from 1986, so that's 35 years ago ! If left to grow freely, this vegetation would grow to be much higher & larger than even the other tree in the background. Each tree is about 4.5 feet tall, and has been trimmed periodically since these were mere twigs. The "lesson" here is that we humans can 'control' to an extent, but nature per se remains as the overarching & "uncertain" factor.
