Publisher's Synopsis
Young people's voices matter! Dr. Mary Jo Podgurski believes the messages taught by teens to their peers are vital to quality education. Teens teach culturally sensitive messages no adult can approximate; their wisdom and modeling can truly change behavior. This newly revised training manual is for any teen who wants to teach and for any adult who wants to provide guidance for potential peer educators. Targeting high school aged young people, the manual is teen-tested and includes 50 interactive learning tools, practical suggestions for group development and facilitation, current topics and games, a glossary, and the paperwork needed to begin a peer education program.
