Summary: | <p>The purpose of this study was to identify existing drug prevention education programs</p><p>in schools, evaluate the effectiveness of drug prevention education programs in schools,</p><p>and build a drug-free school framework. There are two research methods used to obtain</p><p>data in this study. The first research design used mixed methods involving qualitative</p><p>and quantitative data collection. The second design is a design and development</p><p>research method that has three main phases including the needs analysis phase, the</p><p>design and development phase, and the evaluation phase. The respondents selected in</p><p>identifying and evaluating this drug prevention education program are a total of 190</p><p>school students, 40 drug prevention education teachers, school counselors, and school</p><p>administrators, while 10 counseling experts and practitioners have been involved in</p><p>building the drug-free school framework. The data shows that the most activities carried</p><p>out in schools are drug education in the integrated high school curriculum (91.3%),</p><p>while the least carried out activities are the Student Intervention Program (15.2%). Data</p><p>showed that students responded positively at all levels of assessment, including reaction</p><p>levels, learning outcomes, behaviors, and program outcomes. However, in terms of</p><p>implementing drug prevention education programs, there are suggestions for</p><p>improvements needed to conduct drug prevention education effectively in schools.</p><p>Further findings is a proposal for the drug-free school framework by using fuzzy dephi</p><p>techniques that include elements such as low-risk aspects and high protective factors,</p><p>learning outcomes, training, and support, information availability, research-based</p><p>psycho-educational programs, team development, interactive engagement, group</p><p>appropriateness, suitability to targeted student group, realizing a climate of education,</p><p>social collaboration, monitoring progress and outcomes, and finally policies and</p><p>procedures. The implications of the study can be used in the field of academics and</p><p>counseling to prevent drug abuse among students more effectively</p> |
