Report on Development and Validation of Utilization Materials to Accompany Two Series of U.S. Office of Education Alcohol Education Films.

Overview & Synopsis

This report records the development and validation by Abt Associates, Inc. of utilization materials developed to accompany the two U.S. Office of Education film series, Jackson Junior High and Dial A-L-C-O-H-O-L. The first section describes the process by which the nine project products were developed. These products include the following: (1) a teacher manual (with spirit masters), student booklet, and promotional brochure designed to accompany each set of films; (2) an adult group leader guide, with promotional brochure, designed to facilitate use of the films with adult audiences; and (3) a teacher training booklet for using the films with new teachers and inservice teachers enrolled in alcohol education courses. Each curriculum project was reviewed by a panel of consultants, and the printed materials were pilot tested. The second section consists of eight appendixes which provide the results of the evaluation and field testing. (Author)
