Module 1: Introduction in National Service Training Program
1. What were your expectations from the National Service Training Program (NSTP)
during the introduction session?
During the introduction session of the National Service Training Program (NSTP), I
expected to gain a deeper understanding of its objectives and significance in shaping
students into responsible citizens. The session provided insights into the program's structure,
particularly its focus on civic engagement, environmental protection, and disaster
preparedness as outlined in the CWTS 1 curriculum. I looked forward to seeing how these
modules would help develop my awareness of societal issues and equip me with the skills to
contribute meaningfully to the community. Additionally, I anticipated learning how NSTP could
enhance my leadership abilities and civic consciousness through both theoretical and
practical activities.
2. In your own words, how do you define National Service Training Program
The National Service Training Program 1 (NSTP 1) can be defined as a program
designed to instill good citizenship values by encouraging students to actively engage in
community service and nation-building. It emphasizes personal and social responsibility,
equipping students with the knowledge and skills to address real-world challenges. By
applying the principles of good citizenship in school, home, and community—such as showing
respect, participating in civic activities, and advocating for positive change—I can contribute
to creating a supportive environment that fosters unity and growth. This is crucial for
promoting social harmony and building a sustainable future for the nation.

Module 2: Good Citizenship Values
1. How will you apply good citizenship values in your school, home, and community,
and why is this important?
I will exercise good citizen attitudes in school by showing respect to my fellow students
and instructors, observing school rules, and actively being involved in projects that benefit the
greater community, like cleaning drives or symptom awareness campaigns. In the home, I
shall demonstrate responsibility by taking chores seriously, showing respect and care to my
family members, and having open discussions. I'll volunteer in activities that resolve my
community's concerns over local issues, drive environmental sustainability, and help or
service others, for instance, through disaster preparedness programs or outreach efforts.
These practice the values of mutual respect, responsibility, and unity in all walks of life.
Good citizenship promotes social harmony, encourages active participation in finding
solutions for societal issues, and helps create a sustainable and progressive society. By
embodying these values, I can contribute to building a better environment for myself and
successive generations
2. The Golden Rule says "Do unto others what you want others do unto you". What do
you think is the standard of love if we consider this rule?
The standard of love in the Golden Rule, "Do unto others what you want others to do
unto you," would be empathy and selflessness. In that regard, it calls for treating other
individuals in a way that is given by them to you with the same care or respect that you
wanted to receive from others. It's, therefore, the universal measure of love and seeks to put
oneself in another's position and does acts of mutual dignity and understanding.
This principle fosters a culture of fairness, compassion, and reciprocity toward the
needs and well-being of others as one's own. Love thus becomes an active choice to create
harmony and goodwill in relationships and society and is no longer an emotion but a will.

Module 3: Drug Addiction Prevention and Education
1. Share your thoughts on the importance of community involvement in addressing
drug addiction. What programs or initiatives could be implemented to strengthen
community participation?
Community involvement plays a vital role in addressing drug addiction as it fosters a
collective effort to tackle its root causes, provide support to affected individuals, and create an
environment conducive to recovery. In communities with moderate rates of drug cases, like
my own, the impact of addiction is not isolated to individuals but extends to families and
neighborhoods. Engaging the community ensures that resources and efforts are directed
toward education, prevention, and rehabilitation, reducing stigma and encouraging unity in the
fight against this issue.
To strengthen participation, initiatives like community-led awareness campaigns, skills
training for at-risk individuals, and accessible rehabilitation centers can be implemented.
Organizing forums or seminars where recovering addicts share their experiences can inspire
others to seek help. Establishing youth programs, such as sports leagues or creative
workshops, can serve as healthy outlets to divert young people from drug use. Additionally,
collaborations with local government units, NGOs, and religious organizations can enhance
the reach and effectiveness of these initiatives.
2. What are the primarily causes of drug addiction in your community, and how can
these be addressed effectively?
In my province, the moderate rate of drug cases can often be attributed to factors such
as economic hardship, peer pressure, family instability, and limited access to education and
mental health resources. Poverty and unemployment can lead some individuals to use drugs
as an escape from their struggles, while a lack of awareness and peer influence further
exacerbate the problem. Additionally, weak family structures and untreated mental health
issues leave many vulnerable to substance abuse.
Addressing these causes requires a multifaceted approach. Economic programs that
create jobs and provide vocational training can help alleviate poverty, offering better
alternatives to those at risk. Schools and community centers can host regular educational
sessions on the dangers of drug use and promote life skills training. Strengthening family
support systems through parenting seminars and counseling programs can mitigate the
influence of unstable homes. Finally, improving access to mental health services and
establishing local rehabilitation facilities ensures that those struggling with addiction have a
chance to recover in a supportive environment.
