The suspected predominance by MCCL of school-based education on these subjects was not reflected in the data. Students appreciated PCR's value-neutral presentation and resented MCCL's efforts at persuasion. Students considered personal stories more interesting and memorable than fact-based presentations. They felt that PCR should address the emotional side of these issues as well as the facts. PCR and MCCL gave conflicting information and each avoided certain topics, which was confusing and frustrating for students.
Recommendations Improve training of speakers to ensure professional quality presentations.
Develop attractive factsheets and hand them out to every student. Connect with extracurricular youth programs and investigate opportunities to address adolescents outside of school.
