Bullying: You Don't Have to Take it Anymore
Bullying is one of the most underrated yet enduring problems in schools today and is a reality in the lives of all children whether they are bullies, victims or witnesses. Students will quickly grasp what bullying is, when they should seek help, why bullies seek power and the different ways in which bullies attempt to intimidate and abuse their victims. Most importantly, this course discusses various options that can be taken by school officials, teachers, parents, students and bullies themselves, to put an end to this emotionally scarring phenomenon.
Expressing Anger: Healthy vs. Unhealthy
This course helps students identify inappropriate angry behaviors and learn new ways to cope with these strong emotions. Students will observe real teens participating in a workshop led by a clinical psychologist. After these teens act out the different ways we all express anger, students are challenged to identify their own styles of anger expression and are encouraged to examine why they express anger the way they do. Students are encouraged to find new and healthier ways to express their anger.
Hurting with Words
This course is designed to raise awareness of a very real, yet often overlooked, form of abuse: emotional violence. Hurtful words include threats, bullying, and intimidation-anything which causes feelings of humiliation, fear, or worthlessness on the part of the victim. You'll examine the causes of many different types of emotional abuse: men to women, husbands to wives, parents to children, adults to children, and group to group. At the conclusion of this course, you'll be aware of many successful methods of dealing with verbally or emotionally abusive people.
No Excuses: Sexual Harassment
This course uses a series of real-life scenarios to demonstrate various kinds of sexual harassment in the school environment. Examples presented range from indirect forms of harassment (such as unwanted propositions, rumor spreading and name calling) to more blatant kinds like physical blocking or touching. Real-life teens describe their experiences with sexual harassment and a Sexual Harassment Officer suggests options and resources students can seek to help them deal with an unwanted situation once it has been identified.
Emotional Self-Control
National studies warn that many of today's teens have failed to develop vital emotional abilities they will need to go through life. Some of these emotional abilities are handling conflict, planning ahead, resisting anxiety and learning to control hot-tempered reactions. Using real life scenarios, this program actually teaches students emotional self-control by showing them four basic ways to evaluate their own feelings and understand when they might be moving in the wrong direction.
Conflicts, Communications and Relationships
This course offers students a chance to develop their communication skills in all types of relationships. A series of scenarios describe typical conflicts between friends, siblings, parents and children, and an employee and boss. A leading adolescent psychologist helps students understand the scenarios by showing how maximizing communication, listening, and mediation skills can help to resolve most conflicts. Students take turns figuring out what they would do to enhance the communication and resolve the conflict for each situation.
Stressed Out: Stress Management 101
This course describes the different forms of stress (acute, episodic and chronic) and explains how important it is for young people to learn effective techniques for coping with stressful situations. Special attention is given to two common complaints among teens: panic attacks and social anxiety. Also highlighted are other types of stress such as test anxiety, parental demands and peer pressure. Young viewers will learn that there are easy and effective means to treat stress symptoms, including relaxation techniques, health, diet and certain medications.
Violence in Our Schools: Over the Edge
The first segment of this course, Just Another Day, is a live-action drama which recreates the events that have typically led up to tragic, violent outbursts such as those that have exploded in schools across the country. The second segment, Perspectives on School Violence: A Teacher's Resource, features violence prevention authorities discussing topics like identifying potentially violent students, creating a comprehensive plan to prevent violence, creating a safe school environment and why it's important to involve the entire school community in this effort.
