The Drug Detective is an
activity that can be used in a variety of ways:
1.
Substitute Activity: where students write
the correct answer and then document where they got their correct answer,
(Notes, textbook, cell phone — if your school allows students to use their
electrical device in the classroom.)
2.
Pre-assessment -- for a drug unit (which
can include — alcohol, tobacco, smokeless tobacco, crystal meth, ecstasy and
marijuana) This will assess what
students know and give the students an idea what will be covered in class
3.
Test review -- as individual review
or team competition review.
4.
Test -- where students have the option of
taking the test as an individual or with a partner of their choice. Partner tests are harder than students
anticipate for several reasons
a.
Students are only allowed to whisper — If I hear
them, I deduct 5 points.
b.
Partners can disagree on the correct
answer. They will have to quickly and
quietly persuade their partner. I’ve had students stop their partner test and
ask for an individual test because they could not come to agreement.
c.
If both students know the material, it still takes
them time to complete.
