Answer to Question 1

Primary, Secondary, or Tertiary; or Universal, Selective, Indicated. In each case, the first reaches a broad audience, the others are more targeted.

Answer to Question 2

Drug education aims at providing balanced and complete information about drugs and is evaluated by whether the students know this information.

Evaluations are based on follow-up surveys of whether students have started using or increased their use of cigarettes, alcohol, marijuana, etc.
