Five New DVD Programs Cover Bullying and Harassment, Sex Education, Drug Abuse, and More
San Francisco, CA—December 6, 2010— Cerebellum Corporation, the producer and distributor of the award-winning Standard Deviants videos, has created new titles to address sensitive topics that students face, such as bullying and harassment, sex education, substance abuse and Internet-cell phone safety. Released under the new Guidance Systems product line, these DVDs help educators broach extremely sensitive topics in a thoughtful, yet comprehensive, way.
“Students often deal with changing emotions and complex situations in today’s fast-paced, demanding environment where a simple click of a mouse provides access to sexual and violent content and the pervasiveness of news on subjects like bullying and violence against children makes it seem commonplace,” said James Rena, President of Cerebellum Corporation. “We understand that it is essential to equip students with resources so that they can proactively handle difficult situations and make educated lifestyle choices. Our new Guidance Systems series delivers these resources in an age-appropriate manner.”
Cerebellum’s producers researched prevalent school issues to identify the critical topics that are covered in the programs. Based on these findings, each Guidance Systems DVD presents real-life vignettes that students can identify with to develop an understanding of the consequences, emotions and age-appropriate solutions related to each topic. Each Guidance Systems program includes the selected DVD along with an extensive workbook to facilitate classroom discussion and can serve as a supplement to any guidance curriculum.
