USE OF DRUGS AND INTOXICANTS AMONG STUDENTS

INTRODUCTION

Use of drugs and intoxicants among students are important problems that affect school-age youth at earlier ages than in the past. Young people frequently begin to experiment with alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs during the middle school years, with a smaller number starting during elementary school. By the time students are in high school, rates of substance use are remarkably high. According to national survey data, about one in three twelfth graders reports being drunk or binge drinking (i.e., five or more drinks in a row) in the past thirty days; furthermore, almost half of high school students report ever using marijuana and more than one-fourth report using marijuana in the past thirty days. Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug.

What is drug abuse?

Clinically known as substance use disorder, drug abuse or addiction is caused by the habitual taking of addictive substances. Drugs include alcohol, marijuana, hallucinogens and opioids. Substance use disorder is a disease, causing people to compulsively use drugs despite

EFFECTS OF DRUG ABUSE AND ADDICTION

Drugs are chemicals that affect the body and brain. Different drugs can have different effects. Some effects of drugs include health consequences that are long-lasting and permanent. They can even continue after a person has stopped taking the substance.

There are a few ways a person can take drugs, including injection, inhalation and ingestion. The effects of the drug on the body can depend on how the drug is delivered. For example, the injection of drugs directly into the bloodstream has an immediate impact, while ingestion has a delayed effect. But all misused drugs affect the brain. They cause large amounts of dopamine, a neurotransmitter that helps regulate our emotions, motivation and feelings of pleasure, to flood the brain and produce a “high.” Eventually, drugs can change how the brain works and interfere with a person’s ability to make choices, leading to intense cravings and compulsive drug use. Over time, this behavior can turn into a substance dependency, or drug addiction.l. They can impact almost every organ in the human body.Drug addiction can lead to a range of both short-term and long-term mental and physical health problems.

*A weakened immune system, increasing the risk of illness and infection

*Heart conditions ranging from abnormal heart rates to heart attacks and collapsed veins and blood vessel infections from injected drugs

*Nausea and abdominal pain, which can also lead to changes in appetite and weight loss

*Increased strain on the liver, which puts the person at risk of significant liver damage or liver failure

*Seizures, stroke, mental confusion and brain damage, lung disease

*Problems with memory, attention and decision-making, which make daily living more difficult

*Global effects of drugs on the body, such as breast development in men and increases in body temperature, which can lead to other health problems

Other life-changing complication

Dependene on drugs can create a number of dangerous and damaging complications, including:

*Accidents. People who are addicted to drugs are more likely to drive or do other dangerous activities while under the influence.

*Suicide. People who are addicted to drugs die by suicide more often than people who aren't addicted.

*Family problems. Behavioral changes may cause marital or family conflict and custody issues.

*Work issues. Drug use can cause declining performance at work, absenteeism and eventual loss of employment.

*Problems at school. Drug use can negatively affect academic performance and motivation to excel in school.

*Legal issues. Legal problems are common for drug users and can stem from buying or possessing illegal drugs, stealing to support the drug addiction, driving while under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or disputes over child custody.

*Financial problems. Spending money to support drug use takes away money from other needs, could lead to debt, and can lead to illegal or unethical behaviors.

Why Do Teens Use Drugs?

There are many different possible causes of teen drug use. Many are reacting to peer pressure and believe that turning to drugs and alcohol is how to become popular in high school. Some use drugs to self-medicate from painful feelings.

Some teens even turn to “study aid” drugs like Adderall or Ritalin, because they believe these substances will boost their academic performance. High school is often the first time that kids encounter illicit substances, and their curiosity often gets the better of them.

1 Peer Pressure

Peer pressure is influence from the people in one’s social group or setting. Not all peer pressure is bad, though. This influence can cause people to act more responsibly or join a sports team, for example. However, usually, when peer pressure is discussed, it is negative and often is tied to bullying.

Teens face an overwhelming amount of peer pressure in high school, from their classmates and friends. Peer pressure during adolescence often involves risky behaviors, such as trying drugs or alcohol. Teenagers may feel as though they need to give in to this pressure to fit in socially.

2 Academic Pressure

High school is an exceptionally busy and stressful period of life, and academic pressure in high school is very high. Students face harder classes and are gearing up to go to college or start a career. The pressure to get good grades, do well on entrance exams and succeed in extracurricular activities comes from both parents and teachers.

Overwhelmed by homework and studying, teens sometimes turn to performance-enhancing drugs to boost their energy and concentration. They might also take drugs to help them sleep better under stress. Taken without a prescription, these drugs can become addictive and can cause dangerous health effects.

3 Boredom

One of the most common reasons that teenagers begin experimenting with drugs and alcohol. They see drugs and alcohol as a pass time to be explored. Try to giving students more responsibilities or extra - curricular activities to get involved.

4 A bonding experience

Many teenagers usually around freshman year in high school are shy and have trouble making friends. We turn to drugs and alcohol to help us feel morw confident.

5 Depression

Some teens turn to drugs and alcohol as a form of escapism. When they are sad or depressed they see these substances as a way to self- medicate.

6 Curiosity

Curiosity is a natural of life and teenagers are not immune to the urge. Many teens begin experiencing with drugs and alcohol simply because they are curious and want to know what it feels like.

7 Weight loss

Female teenagers often turn to harder drugs such as cocaine for a quick way to lose weight. During high school especially young girls become more body conscious

8 Stress

During high school many teenagers are overly stressed with a packed schedule of advanced classes and extracurriculat activities. A lack of coping skills can lead them to seek out an artificial method of coping with stress. They then turn to drugs such as marijuana in order to relax.

9 Low self esteem

In teenagers, especially between the ages of fourteen and sixteen low self esteem due to physical appearance or lack of friends can lead to self destructive behaviour. The media bullied and often family put pressure on teenagers to act and look a certain way and they lose confidence in themselves if they do not meet those high standards. Drugs and alcohol seems like an easy way to escape they reality.

10 Enhanced experience

Drugs and alcohol ate often used to enhance certain experiences. Cocaine are commonly used to enhance energy and focus when they feel like they can't do something on their own and need a little help. Marijuana and alcohol are often used to relax and be more comfortable in social situation.

11 Now or Never

Teenagers often feel social imperatile to experiment and experience all that we can while they are still going. They feel like it is a now or never situation. They have to try drugs now before they become adults and have responsibilities. They feel like if they do not try it now they will be missing out.

12 Genetic

If there is a family history of drug addiction or alcoholism, teenagers may be genetically predisposed to experiment with drugs and alcohol and become addicted.

Preventing drug misuse in children and teenagers Take these steps to help prevent drug misuse in your children and teenagers:

*Talk to the children about the risks of drug use and misuse.

* Be a good listener when your children talk about peer pressure, and be supportive of their efforts to resist it.

*Set a good example. Don't misuse alcohol or addictive drugs. Children of parents who misuse

drugs are at greater risk of drug addiction.

* Help the child to make good choices and good friends.

* provide guidance and clear rules about not using drugs

*Strengthen the bond. Work on your relationship with your children. A strong, stable bond between you and your child will reduce your child's risk of using or misusing drugs

* Learn the facts about the harmful effects of drugs.

* Avoids tv programmes movies and vedio games that glamorize Tobacco, alcohol and drugs.

* Help the child learn the importance of being a responsible individual

Symptoms

Drug addiction symptoms or behaviors include, among others:

*Feeling that you have to use the drug regularly — daily or even several times a day

*Having intense urges for the drug that block out any other thoughts

*Over time, needing more of the drug to get the same effect

*Taking larger amounts of the drug over a longer period of time than you intended

*Making certain that you maintain a supply of the drug

*Spending money on the drug, even though you can't afford it

*Not meeting obligations and work responsibilities, or cutting back on social or recreational activities because of drug use

*Continuing to use the drug, even though you know it's causing problems in your life or causing you physical or psychological harm

*Doing things to get the drug that you normally wouldn't do, such as stealing

*Driving or doing other risky activities when you're under the influence of the drug

*Spending a good deal of time getting the drug, using the drug or recovering from the effects of the drug

Failing in your attempts to stop using the drug

Conclusion

Teenagers might enter high school as children, but they graduate as young adults. This four-year period is transformational — full of growth, hardships and self-discovery. It’s also an experimental time, and for millions of teens, that means trying drugs and alcohol.

The availability of drugs at school is surprisingly high, especially in high school. Sadly, some teens using drugs will suffer serious consequences as a result of their substance use.

Declining grades, lack of interest in school subjects, lack of interest in a future career, absenteeism from school and other activities, and increased potential for dropping out of school completely are all major problems associated with adolescent substance abuse in this nation.

Most people are aware of the many health problems that can be caused by drug use. Though some individuals can get by with occasional substance use, every intoxicant has side effects and most are addictive in some form or another. Many also carry the risk of potentially deadly overdose, the risk of which can be increased by lack of experience and a low tolerance to the drug.

Which side effects, short-term and long-term, will arise during drug use depends largely on the type of drug. Many substances, including prescription medications, carry a minor risk of severe side effects emerging during their first use. These can include allergic reactions or psychological reactions such as panic attacks, hallucinations, and psychosis (loss of connection to reality). Some people are naturally more sensitive to intoxicants and therefore are more likely to experience rare side effects and/or overdose.

Educational Implications of “Bhagavad Gita”

The true meaning of education:

We may derive the true meaning of education through the virtuous knowledge (Satwika Gyan) as emphasized by Krishna (18:20). Virtuous knowledge is that through which we perceive unity in diversity and sense the Brahma (i.e., God or Parmeshwar) in all the creatures on this earth.

The ideals of education:

We may analyze the ideals of education into six parts, such as:—

i. To develop virtuous knowledge.

ii. To develop and effect sublimation of personality.

iii. To co-ordinate between the individual and social aim.

iv. To develop the inner consciousness.

v. To develop intellectual and logical ability.

vi. To establish the importance of duty in life.

Now we shall understand how Gita refers to the above ideal education.

I. To develop virtuous knowledge:

Our students, like all of suffer from ignorance of virtuous knowledge. In Gita Krishna remark Arjun’s ignorance and motivates him towards performing his duty. From this position we may take up the idea that the ideal of education should be to remove ignorance and to provide the virtuous knowledge.

II. To develop and effect sublimation of personality:

Everyone’s personality is equipped with evil (Asuri) and virtuous (Daivi-godly) traits. In other words, Kauravas (Asuri) and Pandavas (the virtuous) exist in each of us.

Krishna awakens in Arjun the virtuous powers inherent in him and motivates him towards the right path. This is exactly what a Guru should do for his disciple. Thus the ideal of education should be to develop and sublimate the personality of the student.

III. To co-ordinate between the individual and social aim:

In the battle-field Arjun is lost between his individual freedom and the social responsibility. His individual freedom was to fight or not to fight.

The social responsibility warranted his participation in the battle for punishing the evil-doers for establishing peace in the land. Krishna impresses upon him to sacrifice his individual freedom and take up the Gandeev for annihilating the wicked persons and their allies.

Thus we may say that according to Gita ‘one of the chief ideals of education should be to affect a co-ordination between the individual and social aspects of things.

IV. To develop the inner consciousness:

Arjun desires to keep himself away from the ghastly battlefield. Krishna does not want to force him against his will. Instead, he (Krishna) takes recourse to logical reasoning’s and tries to convince Arjun about his sacred self- duty (Swadharma).

Ultimately, on his own, Arjun decides to fight against his opponents. Thus Krishna, his Guru and Friend, succeeds in awakening the inner consciousness (Anthahakaran). This is exactly the ideal that we should follow in the field of education.

V. To develop intellectual and logical ability:

Arjun expresses his doubt regarding the utility of battle. His doubt is at the root of preaching’s of Gita. Krishna employs his intellectual and logical ability for removing Arjun’s doubt.

Thus the main purpose of the philosophy of Gita is to develop the intellectual and logical ability of Arjun (the common man) in order that he may be able to take his own decision in the face of alternatives this should be our ideal of education also.

Vi. To establish the importance of duty:

One can be happy only by establishing a balance between one’s rights and duties. Krishna tells Arjun that nothing is greater than performance of one’s duty (Swadharma-palan). It is very necessary to emphasize this viewpoint before the students of these days. If our students develop this attitude towards life, then this very earth will become a Heaven.

Shakuntala Devi was an Indian writer and mathematical genius popularly known as the "human computer".

She was reputed to make complicated mathematical calculations in her head and effortlessly speak out the results! Born into an impoverished family in southern India as the daughter of a circus performer, she started displaying her skills at an early age. Her father recognized her as a child prodigy and took her on road shows where she displayed her ability at calculation. What was really amazing about the young girl’s mathematical prowess was that she did not receive any formal education owing to her family’s financial situation, yet emerged to be one of the most brilliant mathematical minds of her time. Her phenomenal ability to perform the most complicated mathematical calculations without the aid of any technological device gained her much fame and she eventually became an international phenomenon. Arthur Jensen, a professor of psychology at the University of California, Berkeley, tested and studied her abilities and published his findings in the academic journal ‘Intelligence’. Her extraordinary abilities also earned her a place in the 1982 edition of ‘The Guinness Book of World Records’. In addition, she was also a well known author of children’s books as well as works on mathematics, puzzles, and astrology.

New trends and perspectives in curriculum design and in curriculum construction –constructivist-cultural studies-diversified curriculum.

Curriculum-Meaning, Concept and Definitions

Etymologically the term curriculum was derived from the Greek word ‘Currere’ which means a race course or a runway on which one runs to reach a goal. In the past the term curriculum signified a course of studies followed by a pupil in a teaching institution. Today it means in general terms, the contract between Society, the state and educational professionals with regard to the educational activities that learners should undergo during a certain phase of their lives to learn something desirable.

Cunningham - “Curriculum is a tool in the hands of an artist (teacher) to mould his material (pupils) according to his ideas (aim and objectives) in his studio (school).”

Morroe - “ Curriculum includes all those activities which are utilized by the school to attain the aims of education.”

Modern Concept

Modern Education is the combination of two dynamic processes. The one is the process of individual development and the other is the process of socialization; which is commonly known as adjustment with the social environment.

Modern Trends in Curriculum Design

The classroom is continually changing, from the subject matter that is covered, to the way it is taught. Some of these changes stem from easily-abandoned fades, while others prove to be ineffective. But lately several key shifts have been shaping the future of the classroom that have the potential to impact education for years to come. Educators who to incorporate these trends into their lessons must determine how to overcome any obstacles to their implementation and ensure the new measures are beneficial to their students. For educators who want to change their approach to building curriculum, these are the trends worth exploring:

Real Skills. Gone are the days of students asking, “When will I ever use this in real life?” during a trigonometry lesson. In addition to traditional subjects, there has been excitement surrounding skills that students can use in the real world. In the 21st century, skills like collaboration, critical thinking, and communication are valued in virtually all aspects of daily life.

These skills will prepare students for life beyond the classroom and can be beneficial to personal, academic, and professional situations. They are also applicable in some way in all academic disciplines, and so will help students regardless of what they choose to focus on with their studies. Teaching these skills will not only help students academically, but they will also help shape their growth as independent individuals in the modern world. Teachers across the nation will have different ideas of what skills are most important and how to teach them to their students. As students advance into higher grades and learn from multiple educators, there can be inconsistencies with instruction that hinder or confuse students. However this lack of standard does not lead to more variety, which could actually enrich students’ educational experience and introduce them to new skills and perspectives in the classroom.

Personalized Curriculums. Traditionally, students get more freedom to choose what they learn as they get older, starting with electives in middle and high school and specializing in a major when they get to college. However, research dating back to the 1990s shows that interest-based learning is closely tied to student success. Educators are beginning to build curriculum around students’ interests at younger ages, in the hopes of keeping them engaged and motivated at school.

Interest-based learning is hardly a new idea, but integrating it into the curriculum wasn’t thought to be possible until new learning technologies became more widespread. Classroom technology makes it easier for teachers to create individualized lessons for their students based on their passions.

While some schools may already focus on individualized learning, others still have to figure out how to integrate personalized curriculums on a larger scale. Working with new technology in the classroom is a challenge in and of itself. Additionally, instructors may struggle to create or respond to personalized lessons for each and every one of their students, especially in the case of large class sizes. However, this can still benefit all students by keeping them passionate and interested about what they learn at school.

Digital Integration. As with many other aspects of modern life, teachers have been incorporating more and more technology into the classroom. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of websites, apps, programs, and devices dedicated to helping teachers, parents, and students of all ages with school. And the possibilities are endless — from e-textbooks to online high school degree programs, there is no shortage of useful tools available to enhance every part of the educational experience.

The open-source nature of the internet encourages users to do more than consume these free resources. Interaction with and contribution to the collective knowledge available not only to students, but to all users, can be a powerful experience for students. Instructors can encourage students to take an active role in both their own education and the education of others.

However, there are several challenges that educators and administrators may face when attempting to integrate new technology into their classroom. Perhaps one of the biggest challenges is lack of funds. Purchasing new technology for classroom use gets expensive, and even new digital software can be costly. Some districts may simply be unable to afford new technology and there is an increasingly large technological divide between low-income and wealthy schools. Though much of the Internet is free to use as long as students have a device to access it, educators will have to devise a specific plan to purchase and integrate new technology within budget constraints.

Inequality of implementation is another large challenge to overcome. Different schools and teachers have different resources available to them, leading to unique educational experiences for each student. These differences lead to some students enjoying a much higher quality of education than others, and while creating systemic change across classrooms would ensure an equal and fair education for all, it is a difficult goal to achieve. Educators can only control their own lessons and should integrate new methods as they see fit.

These trends may sound like undeniable solutions to improve the quality of education, but they mark a truly radical shift in how teachers create curriculum for their students. Though integrating new trends may be difficult, educators should still embrace any changes they see value in. Adhering to old standards or methods of curriculum building simply because it’s easier will affect students for generations to come. Educators must do their best to help their students learn and grow, and these new curriculum trends may be an effective way to do so(Blogger,).

Curriculum Construction

One of the most important activities of the university is the development of curriculum or course outlines in consonance with the national and international demands and realities. For the last few decades, scholars have been raising doubts and questions about the validity of heavy reliance on a subject-centered approach to curriculum development that is dominated by textbook contents. Furthermore, the convergence of academic disciplines in the form of broad field and problem-orientation to knowledge incorporating a variety of theoretical perspectives requires innovative procedures for the development of curriculum. For this purpose, it is imperative that university teachers are aware of modern trends in the development of curriculum.

The key component of any curriculum is its instructional objectives or learning outcomes. To determine the extent to which these objectives or outcomes have been achieved, there is a need to assess students’ learning. Students’ assessment is a very complex task. Teachers often do not have the necessary background to meet its requirements appropriately. Hence, it is also necessary that teachers are exposed to a variety of tools to measure students learning (“MODERN TRENDS IN CURRICULUM CONSTRUCTION | remya radhakrishnan,”).

Principles of Curriculum Construction

The content of curriculum is determined on the basis of some academic principles which are stated below:

(1) Aims of education and objectivity: Life is complex. A curriculum should reflect the complexities of life. In other words, in farming the curriculum one should take into consideration the aims and objectives of education.

(2) Child-centric principle: The curriculum should be framed according to the actual needs, interests and capacities of the child. That means a curriculum must be child-centric as modern education is child-centered.

(3) Principles of civic and social needs: Man is a social being. He lives in the society. The child develops in the society. Modern education aims at both developments of the individuality of the child as well as the development of the society.

(4) Principle of conservation: Man has conserved experiences very carefully for better adaptability. Education is regarded as a means of deserving the cultural heritage of humanity. The school serves two-fold functions in this regard- preservation of the past experiences and transmission of experiences.

(5) Principles of creativeness: Education not only conserves that past experiences of humanity but also helps an individual to develop his innate potentialities.

(6) Principle of forward-looking: The aim of life-centered education is not limited to the present life-situations in the family and society. Hence, education must prepare the child of shouldering future responsibilities. So in farming the curriculum we must take into consideration the future needs of the child as well as the needs of the society.

(7) Principle of preparation for living: The children should know the various activities of the environment around them and how these activities are enabling people to meet their basic needs of food, shelter, clothing, recreation, health and education.

(8) Principle of integration and correlation: Subjects should be arranged logically and psychologically in accordance with the child’s developing interests.

(9) Principle of learning ability: Every item should be learnt. An item should not only be learnable, it should also have utility.

(10) Principle of individual difference: The curriculum should be framed in such a way that every individual can have opportunity for self-expression and development. The curriculum should be based on the psychology of individual difference, which can meet the complexities of modern democratic society.

(11) Principle of social relevancy and utility: Subjects should not be determined on the basis of their disciplinary value but on the basis of their intrinsic value, social relevancy and utility.

(12) Principle for utilization of leisure: Variety of subjects such as games and sports, fine arts, subjects of aesthetic value are to be introduced in the school programme to utilize leisure.

(13) Principle of variety and flexibility: The curriculum should include such activities and experiences, which may facilitate his normal development. The curriculum for girls should naturally be different from that of boys; boys and girls have different needs and attitudes.

(14) Principle of time: Relative significance and importance of each subject in the curriculum has to be judged and determined in the light of the time available in the timetable, which is regarded as the mirror of the school programme.

Modern trends in curriculum construction

Digital Diversity: Present age is an age of ICT technology has touched to al the wakes of human life. Technology has made various tasks easy, convenient and of quality. To survive in the concern filed it is necessary for everyone to have a knowledge and skill of technology. Education makes man enable to contribute, it strengthens the capabilities. For the effective transaction of curriculum ICT is must.

Web 2.0 applications must be used for the effective teaching learning process. Curriculum makers should give clear guidelines regarding this. E.g. teacher tube is very useful source for the educational resources. Khan academy.org also provides good videos, lectures and many more which makes learning meaningful, easy and effective. Curricki merlot, K2-12 Hippocamus all these provides educational resources which students can use, edit reconstruct and so on. All these things should be interlined with every curriculum.

Need based Curriculums: Researches in all the fields resulted in to specialization. Need based curriculum is the foremost need of the present education system. Many universities are developing need based short term programs for this purpose.

E.g. Mumbai University has introduced courses like – certificate course in Power Point, certificate course in tally, certificate course in marketing, YCMOU- introduced –English communication skills program for Mumbai Dabawala.

Modular Curriculum with credit base system: Modular curriculum gives real freedom of learning .especially in the open learning system his approach has been adopted at first but now majority of traditional universities also accepting his system; this is a real emerging trend in the modern curriculum.

Online coerces: Need based and choice based curriculums are available online also. E.g. course era .com has introduced many useful need based courses for free of cost. Government also takes initiative for this e.g. Right to Information certificate curse has been introduced by Government of India to the Indian people. This course is free and online.

21st century skills: All the curriculums of various courses should focus on 21st century skills. Skills like collaboration, critical thinking, effective communication, multitasking stress management, empathy are must for all the personals.

International Understanding: Globalization has made converted the world in to global village. We should consider world as a one family and for this international understanding must be inculcate through curriculum.

Constructivism: Constructivist approach believes that learner should be given freedom to construct his/her knowledge. Spoon feeding must be avoided. If a learner is fully active in construction of knowledge then learning process will be highly effective. In all the curriculums constructivist strategies must be given important place.

Cultural studies

Cultural studies is an interdisciplinary field of studies, which means that it draws from many different subject areas, including sociology, anthropology, political science, and history. Although it is sometimes misunderstood as being the study of popular culture, cultural studies is, in fact, the study of the ways in which culture is constructed and organized and the ways in which it evolves and changes over time. Modern curriculum needs study of culture so as to attain the benefits of culture and to develop culture (“Cultural studies | interdisciplinary field | Britannica.com,” ).

Diversified Curriculum

Our world is changing — economically, socially, and politically. We have reached a stage in India where our students have started viewing the world differently and their place in it as thinkers, decision makers and important stakeholders. To meet the challenges ahead, we’ll need help from a broad range of non-technological innovators, including economists, political scientists, psychologists and artists.

As the contemporary world becomes more complex, we need an education setup that caters to this diversity not only in terms of challenges but also in the ways to address them. It is time, therefore, that we accepted and embraced the crucial contribution

that an education provides in building a new innovation agenda in the country. The essential interdisciplinary character of education in liberal arts provides students the necessary exposure to the multifaceted character of human nature. The ongoing digital revolution will make this exploration between technology and education obvious for the next generation.

Now thinking will be more important than knowing. We need to revolutionize education to encourage creativity and need to teach our boys and girls to play, take a chance and create, not by teaching our students. We will hinder their capacity to innovate (“The need for a diversified curriculum,” 2017).
