CCBS 101: Cannabis Basics from a Pharmacist's Perspective
Format: In order to save travel and scheduling committment, this introductory course on cannabis is offered as a single three-hour session; with each hour including a presentation, brief activity, discussion, and break.
Description: What constitutes basic drug education for all adults, young and old? What should we all know about drugs, both drugs in general, and cannabis in particular? How does cannabis compare with synthetic drugs claiming similar benefits, including safety, risk, and side-effects. What does it mean to be dependent on drugs? Get a pharmacist's perspective on these questions and other topics relating to cannabis, including a little history, botany, chemistry, kinetics, pharmacology, and more in this introductory cannabis course. For dates, times, and more go here.
First, a quick orientation to get aquainted with this site and the courses we offer.
As you will notice, courses at Manitou Movie School are not divided according to traditional disciplinary subjects. Instead, each course is placed into one of five major categories according to its content emphasis and/or instructional approach.
The major course categories are Cannabis Community (CCBS), NonDisciplinary (NDBS), InterDisciplinary (IDBS), MultiDisciplinary (MDBS), and TransDisciplinary (TDBS).
To learn more about these categories, as well as what it means if a course is marked OPEN,CLOSED, or PENDING, click on the "Courses" button in the upper right corner of this frame. Clicking on the prefix buttons will lead to course listings in that category and course descriptions.
While course offerings will be limited during the first part of the pilot project, expanded availability is anticipated as the project progresses.
