Objective:
We felt that Road Rage was such a hot topic now a days. People have been struggling to keep their temper out on the road. Roads are filling up again as many return back to work after a 2 year hiatus!
Target Audience:
Parents, admin, students, EVERYONE…we’ve all been upset behind the wheel it’s important to be patient and safe at all times
Execution:
We met multiple times to film certain scenes and use the mascot. Ideas were plentiful as to what to do and where to do it. I love the final product and the music we chose.
Teamwork:
We had multiple lunch meetings and worked during gym class. We had a google classroom page too where we shared ideas and asked teachers for permission to use them in video.
Use of resources:
The police visit our class annually to talk about their expectations for new drivers and how important it is to follow speed limits and avoid distractions
Use of media:
We have an instagram account and twitter page to spread the word. We made a quick PSA this year about not texting and driving and utilize our you tube page for all prior U got brains videos
Thoroughness:
I don’t think road rage is addressed often but it’s a problem we face daily. Teens need to realize how important the responsibility of driving is.
Impact:
We had students fill out google forms to take ownership of times they’ve lost their cool and ask what they could have done better
Sustainability:
I think we always speak about the devil and angel on our shoulder and if we drive home a point enough the students actually put some thought into their behavior when they see a situation arise.
Unexpected Lessons Learned:
It’s always nice to see the school come together around this time of year and rally around the Drivers Ed project we choose.
