Description

This manual serves as the student workbook for the Viewpoints group training program. It presents a 10-lesson curriculum designed to teach social problem-solving skills, increase impulse control, promote empathy, and develop prosocial attitudes in adolescents. The program covers topics such as peer pressure, drugs and alcohol, stress, fairness, and prejudice. Lessons involve reading, writing, and group discussion. Each lesson poses real-life problem situations that are interesting, relevant, and highly thought provoking. The program has been field-tested over a period of 15 years in schools and juvenile correctional facilities. It has been shown to significantly reduce students' aggression and antisocial behavior. - from Amzon
