Could Don't Text And Drive Courses Prove Useful?

By Rob Sutter


Shouldn't don't text and drive be an instance that is shown in high school and college courses? It almost seems like the subject would be a fine fit, especially since this particular matter appeals mostly to young people. They are the ones who seem to cause this the most, though I won't lie and say that there aren't exceptions to this mindset. Nonetheless, I believe that people should be informed on this matter and these potential classes can show a good number of students the facts.

It's clear that the subject of don't text and drive is a powerful one but I think that public speakers can amplify that message to great degrees. For instance, you may want to talk about organizations such as Texting Awareness since such groups have workers who understand the dangers of these actions. They want to be able to convey them to other people as well. Hopefully these classes can prove to be effective through this action and there are others that should be looked into.

Another way to drive the point home is to show short videos of public service announcements depicting these dangers. People may not realize that these short commercials can pack such emotional punches but be certain that they can do just that and more. I believe that students, who may not have thought much about the subject, can come away from it impacted. The stories can be sad, which goes without saying, but they can be informative, allowing students to absorb the subject matter easily.

Go to any classroom; you can be certain that it has its own way on how to grade students. Their performance has to be judged and, of course, written tests are the most common. For those teachers who want to see their students speak, though, I believe that's where presentations can make themselves known. It's apparent that these can potentially help people when going about public speaking but I am under the impression that they can help people learn more by researching for the aforementioned presentations.

As you can imagine, don't text and drive is perhaps one of the strongest subjects imaginable and it's why I expect it to be a potentially strong subject for school. I don't think that assemblies on the matter alone are going to do much, at least not in the long strong. They are one-off occasions and the attention span of many students doesn't seem to accommodate them. You want to make sure that the information sticks and that's where continuous classes should be seen.
