| Summary: | The overwhelming number of drug abuse prevention curricula available to public schools often impedes the rational selection of a program based on sound prevention education strategies. Guidelines for the selection of either predeveloped or for developing curricula are included in this workbook. Suggestions for the formation of a district selection team and the organization of selection criteria are offered. Criteria are organized into the following categories: (1) goals and objectives; (2) content; (3) instructional methodologies; (4) learning opportunities; (5) materials; (6) time; (7) evaluation; and (8) district-specific criteria. Worksheets rate each curriculum to the degree that it meets each criterion. Weighted individual scores are added to generate a total curriculum score. After analysis and comparison of curricula, committee members are better prepared to reach a consensus. (6 references) (LMI) |
