The modules were produced as a result of a Drug-Free Schools and Communities Trainingand Demonstration grant in cooperation withthe Orange County School system. One of the key elements of the successfulimplementation of the modules during the piloting phase of thisproject was the intensive alcohol and other drug abuseprevention training that was provided to the participating middle school teachers. This training was also a model for the teachersin identifying interactive learning techniques and inimplementing these techniques in the classroom. The teacher'sguide, located on the inside flap of each notebook, will offeradditional information on interactive learning. It is optimal for the teacher to perceive their role as a facilitator,as opposed to a lecturer, with this curriculum.
