Description

For grades 9-12

DESCRIPTION

In this program, comedian/teen counselor Mike Pritchard and students from St. Louis; New York City; Cleveland; Detroit; Columbia, SC.; and Gainesville, FL, talk about the pressures they face, from academic competition to peer acceptance to parental expectations. In small group dialogues, they grapple with ways of keeping pressure in perspective and handling it in a manner that serves their best interests.

OBJECTIVES

To stimulate young people to think critically about the kinds of pressures they live with. To encourage and empower them to choose for themselves how they will respond to those pressures. To explore the differences between legitimate and illegitimate pressures.

ABOUT THE SERIES

The Power of Choice with Michael Pritchard is a 12-part youth guidance video series aimed at empowering teenagers to make good choices in their lives. It teaches young people that they have the power of choice, that they are responsible for the choices they make, and that they owe it to themselves to choose the best.

Used as a springboard for group discussion, The Power of Choice is highly effective at triggering teenagers to talk openly about their personal thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and to look critically at how they make choices. Each program comes with a companion guide filled with discussion questions, group activities, and writing assignments.
