Using TRAILS to Search
Lesson Setup
• Drugs and Deviance TRAILS resource • Deviance is relative to time, place and
perception • Deviance written into law becomes a crime • Crime is relative to time, place and
perception
Chris Salituro, Stevenson High School, csalituro@d125.org
Lesson Procedure
Chris Salituro, Stevenson High School, csalituro@d125.org
Lesson Discussion
• Difficulty of agreeing on what is deviant • Prior knowledge & assumptions affect
perception of deviance. • Without bias, there is often inconsistency in
how drugs are categorized vs. how students categorize them. o Ex. Caffeine=2, Alcohol=3, Nicotine=4
Chris Salituro, Stevenson High School, csalituro@d125.org
Lesson Discussion
• Real world implications: o Social construction of drugs as a criminal
problem has created stigma and hidden the medical problem
o Different drugs are viewed differently: tobacco v. marijuana marijuana viewed differently from place to place
• Eric Schlosser’s Reefer Madness
crack cocaine vs. powder cocaine
