Program 6 "Balance"

This program focuses on the effects of drugs on the central nervous system and the brain. TAM shows how all the body systems are controlled by the brain and how the skeletal system is designed to protect and support these systems. Modules are used to describe the circulatory, digestive, and central nervous systems. The brain model displays the different areas of the brain and their functions. Audio/visuals present the importance of taking correct dosages of prescribed drugs and show how to much of any drug can impair judgment or even threaten basic life systems. Films and role-play define influences and alternative ways to achieve a balanced lifestyle.
