Activities:

Before viewing
Tell the students they are going to see one of a series of short films focusing on issues around smoking and tobacco control.

After viewing
Key questions

a) What key message/s was the film trying to get across?
b) What techniques were employed to do this?
c) How successful did individuals feel this was?
d) What impact had the film made on them?

Activity 1
In groups, or as a class, ask students to identify the emotions they felt as they watched the animation progress. (You might want to show the film again before doing this.) Ask them to account for these emotions. There is no speech in the animation. Does everyone share the same interpretation of the film? If not, does this affect understanding about the effects of smoking and passive smoking?

Activity 2
Get students to identify and audit the effectiveness of all measures in the school or college that are designed to stop people smoking and protect people from tobacco smoke. What recommendations would they make? How would they go about taking these forward? How else might they participate in preventing people being harmed by tobacco smoke?
