A Curriculum for Road Safety Education in Schools
The Efficacy of Road Safety Education in Schools
Author: S. J. Raftery
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781921645143
Category : Traffic safety
Languages : en
Pages : 46
Book Description
This report provides an overview of current road safety education (RSE) programs for school students that are currently in use in Australia and overseas with the primary aims of commenting on the effectiveness of current approaches, and to identify any gaps in the provision of RSE. To this end the report was necessarily restricted to the inclusion of RSE programs that have been evaluated or that are comparable with similar programs that had. RSE programs were categorised according to the five primary strategies adopted: indirect or holistic approaches, one-time interventions, driver training, curriculum-based, and multi-modal approaches. The lack of well-designed evaluations makes commenting on the short- and long-term efficacy of RSE programs problematic, however the report makes use of evidence from a variety of sources to facilitate an informed discussion. The effectiveness of current road safety educational programs remains largely undetermined as there is little evidence showing that RSE either does or does not work, although programs addressing the general causes of risk taking behaviour are showing some promise. In general current approaches do not appear to cause harm, unless they promote early licensing, and there would be expected to be an inherent value in passing on road safety knowledge. Suggestions for improvements and future directions for RSE are also offered.

Guidelines for a K-12 Traffic Safety Education Curriculum. Volume II: Curriculum Content and Instructional Approach. Final Report
Author: D. W. Lockett
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
The aim of this project was to recommend content and instructional approach guidelines for a K through 12 traffic safety education curriculum. The specific project requirements were to identify: (1) content requirements for a curriculum; (2) developmental capabilities of school-age children; (3) the most suitable approach for teaching traffic safety to specific ages of learners; and (4) issues affecting implementation, evaluation and research of K-12 traffic safety education programs. In addition, an advisory panel of traffic safety, education and child development experts were consulted to review this project's content and instructional approach recommendations. This volume contains the recommended content and instructional approach guidelines for a K-12 traffic safety curriculum. Included in this document are: an overview of instruction recommended in four traffic safety areas (i.e., occupant, alcohol, pedestrian and bicycle safety); a discussion of estimated teaching time projected for one academic year; the critical information students in grades K through 12 should be taught about traffic safety; and the most suitable approach for teaching traffic safety according to the developmental capabilities of students. Volume I describes the procedures followed in completing the work requirements and the findings.
