This unit is designed to provide junior high school students with an understanding of the problem of vandalism in an effort to instill positive attitudes toward their environment and to increase their awareness of the impact they can have on the quality of the various environments of which they are a part. It traces the historical origin of the term vandalism to the contemporary problem and includes such concepts as: specific values held by vandals, the economic waste resulting from vandalism, and careers related to vandalism. The unit includes the behavioral objectives and the expected student criteria for evaluation, pretests and posttests, suggested methodologies for teaching each concept and suggested student data sheets. It is particularly designed for use in the junior high school located in the Parkway School Districts in Chesterfield, Missouri. (MLB)
