Part 1: My
PowerPoint presentation
Ideas that
other students had for my project:
- · What’s the comparison between first semester college students drinking and second semester?
- · Are the numbers still as high with underage college students consuming alcohol? Does this number rise or decrease in the next years in college?
- · I think you could have narrowed your topic into either how drinking affects their social life or how it affects their academic life, and not both.
- · To strengthen your ACURA project you could possibly talk about more risky behaviors like drug use in college students.
- · To strengthen you could have used some more information and made some of your ideas like the binge drinking even smaller and focused on why people do it rather then using it as a discussion question!
- · For your research project maybe try to narrow it down to just academic or just social life so you could dig deeper
- · Maybe find a specific group of students to focus on binge drinking. Like, do freshman binge drink more/less than seniors or does one major have more binge drinkers than another?
- · could it be possible to compare students consumption during their senior of high school compared to their freshman year in college and the stresses that come with the change in material and atmosphere leading to more consumption?
Changes I
think I’m going to make to my ACURA project:
I am going
to compare first year college students to seniors in high school. I also am
going to focus more on the social life of the students and try and find
research on how alcohol has an impact on that.
Part 2: What
is the comparison between high school seniors’ alcohol consumption and freshmen
in college? How does this influence their social lives?
