Video One:

In chapter 1, page 5 of your text, the author challenges the reader to “touch reality” by

vicariously experiencing a disaster. He suggests that you watch the community meeting

scene (about 4 minutes) in

Dante’s Peak

in which the eruption of a volcano is just

starting.

Go to the following website and respond to the questions below.

1.

As the person in the meeting, how are you feeling? What thoughts are going through

your mind?

2. As a parent, son, daughter, grandchild, spouse, pet owner, (whatever is true for you)

responsible for another, how are you feeling? What thoughts are going through your

mind?

3. Imagine yourself as the child. Specify the age. How are you feeling? What do you

want? What are you doing? You may also use the child sitting alone near the end of the

clip (3:2) to respond.

From the text:

4. How does the Family Centered Perspective differ from the three other approaches

(profession centered, family focused, and family involved)? Include in your response the

author’s rationale for his preferred model. (see text).

Describe how you would approach the family* in the film using the Family Centered

Approach following their escape from the mountain. Describe only your approach. Do

not describe resources or services.

* The family refers to the main characters, consisting of the single mother, two children and

grandmother. Imagine that they escape in good health but homeless, with nothing to return to.
