Visually appealing! The rate at which the video proceeds is good with obvious places to pause for discussion. Separate tapes for each circle allow me to run 2 classes at the same time. Symbols for each circle are clear.

Circles Curriculum:
Safer Ways

AIDS and Communicable Disease Prevention
Leslie Walker-Hirsch, MED & Marklyn P. Champagne, RN MSW
The Circles: Safer Ways video program will bring your students current information on avoiding and treating communicable diseases, and in the process, will teach them ways to protect themselves against sexually transmitted diseases.

Circles: Safer Ways is made up of two parts:

Part 1: Communicable Disease and Casual Contact
Illustrates steps that can be taken to lessen the chances of catching a communicable disease. Four dramatized sequences model good health habits and provide the necessary readiness for the sensitive information in Part 2.

Part 2: STDs, AIDS, and Intimate Contact
Explains the difference between "casual" and "intimate" contact. Promotes positive decision-making, including abstinence, to best avoid STDs and AIDS. Real-life dramatic sequences present young people making decisions that help them stay healthy. Dispels myths regarding transmission of diseases and clearly illustrates risk factors. You'll receive both general and explicit versions of "How AIDS and STDs Are Contracted," so you can decide which level is most appropriate for your students and community.
