The Educator's Guide To Substance Abuse Prevention by Sanford Weinstein
This book is a guide for prospective and practising teachers and other school personnel whose students may raise issues about drug education, substance abuse prevention, and drug control. Students usually raise these issues in response to community events or personal or family experiences, to challenge the teacher and the curriculum, or because of their own drug use or that of peers. The goal of this book is to help teachers help students cope wtih drug-related events and experiences related to these contexts."Takes substance abuse education out of the exclusive domain of the drug educator or health professor and brings it into the realm of the total curriculumI applaud the perspective that drug education needs to be addressed in all subject areas as a part of a teacher's responsibility to be receptive to the needs of all students....I also like the honest confrontation of the effectiveness of current drug education programs in the schools. This book is unique in pointing out the weaknesses of the traditional substance abuse education program and the compromising role the critical thinking teacher finds oneself in when teaching that curriculum."
