Xoteric
is a radical approach to drug education for teenagers. It has the characteristics
of a computer game combined with the depth of an educational resource.
It is produced by educari,
a leading-edge publisher of educational material.
Xoteric
has taken about two years to develop, employing the combined talents
of Nick Stone, an artist and designer, and Richard Ives, an educationalist
and Drug Education expert, plus input from a number of other skilled
people. It has been tested with various players and on a range of computer
platforms.
Now
it can contribute to your drug education programme. It is suitable for
use in a variety of educational situations. It is appropriate for the
school classroom, or for the informal educational settings. It will
also be useful to counselling agencies working with young drug users.
It is an excellent resource to have available when doing displays or
exhibitions. The core target audience is 10 to 14-year-olds, but it
will also be attractive to older teenagers, particularly those who are
themselves drug users.
An amazing
resource for anybody interested in Drug Education.
