Teamwork: Principles of Successful Teams
- A quick and concise presentation of what distinguishes a high performance team. A good tool for initiating a discussion of team goals.
Teenagers and Tough Decisions Pt.1
- 1990 issues are still relevant, but of course, the statistics are outdated. We looked up current stats.
- I use this every year. It never out dates itself.
- Great win-win lesson.
- I've used it for years to teach negotiation skills. I love it, as do the kids.
- Very engaging presenter. Lots of good information.
- Youths (15-17) felt it was over dramatized (acting). Interviews with cancer patients were done well.
- This tape was very well received when shown to a group of teens working on substance abuse issues. It was also shown to teens with other psychiatric issues, and it stirred up intense emotions that some found "too close to home" since teens in the group were currently struggling with bulimia themselves or had friends who were.
- No Native American example...but very good!
- Kids (9-12) liked that Patrick Reynolds rebelled against family and the "inside" info on advertising techniques. Lost interest when Patrick got "preachy" and talked about God.
- I like this because it hasn't become outdated w/clothes, hairstyles etc.
- Very moving with regards to the toll drugs can take on a community.

Understanding the Basics of Recovery
- After previewing, decided it was too advanced for kids in IOP. However, I think it is excellent for adults.

Up in Smoke: the Extreme Dangers of Smoking

V
- Good. Group response was excellent. Shows how taking drugs and alcohol abuse/dependence violates values. Thought provoking on clarifying values.
- It was quite sobering and made its point well.
W
- Presentation and facts were very good.
- Good info. Some kids liked it, others did not. It is too long to hold the attention of the population I deal with.

- Very interesting and a great awareness tool for a serious health issue related to alcohol use.
- Excellent for young children.

- Great video. Direct and informational.
- Good discussion opener. New info for some of our patients.
- This video is older, however, it has some good info. Pausing video for discussion was useful.
- I like it because of it's historical perspective, even though it's outdated.
- A bit outdated. Hard for kids to relate to the teens in the movie.
When Gambling is no Longer Fun
- Good point. Gambling is a recreation activity, not an investment.
- This is a good film for when I want to introduce change at the beginning of my groups. Awesome.
- Very effective message.
- Very appropriate for the age group. Powerful message...realistically depicted consequences.
- Sends a very strong message to teens about the serious consequences of binge drinking.
- Good strategies for saying no. Funny. Good story.

- Good to see other students speak out about drinking - consequences for behaviors.
- Good program. Seems very realistic.
- Shown to a small "user" audience. Participants gave credibility to "straight" students and validity of survey responses.
