CHAPTER 4

Consciousness “Choice of attention—to pay attention to this and ignore that—is to the inner life what choice of action is to the outer. In both cases, a man is responsible for his choice and must accept the consequences, whatever they may be.” —W. H. Auden “A drug addict is a person who you don’t like who uses different drugs than you do.”—Anonymous

CHAPTER PREVIEW Chapter 4 consists of five modules. Module 4.1 defines the connection between consciousness and awareness, and the stages of consciousness.

ICE-BREAKERS (IB) IB 4.1 Normal versus Altered States: What Is the Difference? Activity Type: Ice-Breaker Class Size: This activity works well in small classes by breaking class into groups of 3 or 4 students. In large classes, the instructor should assign students by seat location in class. Class Time Involved: 5 minutes in group discussion; 5 minutes to share with the entire class Materials Needed: None Preparation Time: None Student Skills: Psychology Content, Social Skills, Critical Thinking As a topic introduction, the instructor should ask students to get in small groups and on a sheet of paper, have them write the phrase, “Normal States of Consciousness” and on another sheet of paper, write the phrase, “Altered States of Consciousness.” On each sheet, students should write as many terms or phrases as they can to describe normal and altered states. After 5 minutes, the instructor should have each group put their list of terms and phrases on the board. The instructor should spend a few minutes discussing the similarities and differences between the lists. The instructor can also spend a few minutes discussing the process by which the groups constructed their list. Most groups will have made a direct comparison of normal and altered states.

IB 4.2 Altered States: Have You Experienced Any Lately? Activity Type: Ice-Breaker Class Size: This activity works best as a two-part discussion, with an individual component and group component. Class Time Involved: 3–5 minutes for individual part; 5–10 minutes for group time; brief time to share Materials Needed: None Preparation Time: None Student Skills: Psychology Content, Social Skills, Critical Thinking, Real-Life Application As a chapter introduction, the instructor should have students list instances when they experienced an altered state of consciousness. Since this is an ice-breaker, the instructor may need to define what he/she means by “altered states.” The instructor can give a few personal examples, such as pulling into your driveway and realizing that you didn’t remember the last few minutes of your drive. The instructor should give the class 3–5 minutes to make individual lists of examples. Then, students should get into groups of 5 to 6 students to compare and combine lists. Usually, as students discuss their examples, the instructor will begin to receive questions: Can drinking lead to altered states of consciousness? Can being really tired be an example? Can exercising “in the zone” be an altered state? As these questions come up, the instructor should write them on the board to discuss with the entire class. When the discussion lessens, the instructor should ask the groups to consider what factors in their lists are contributing to altered states (fatigue, substance use, etc.). This ice-breaker is an opportune time to mention the areas within altered states of consciousness that will be covered in the modules. It also helps students identify what they are personally interested in learning about altered states and how these

states are part of their lives. By discussing examples from their lives, students will appreciate the differences and similarities in their experiences.

IB 4.3 Sleep versus No Sleep: How Would We Change? Activity Type: Ice-Breaker Class Size: This activity works well with all class sizes; it works best when completed as a two-step process. First, students list their ideas in class and then get into small groups to combine responses into a group list. Second, student groups share their ideas with the entire class. Class Time Involved: 10 minutes to do the individual and small-group component, additional time for class discussion Materials Needed: Handout 4.1 Preparation Time: None Student Skills: Psychology Content, Social Skills, Critical Thinking The instructor should give each student a copy of the sleep needs handout. The instructor should tell students to entertain the preposterous situation presented in the handout and describe the implications of a no-sleep society. After students have given their own individual response, the instructor should divide students into small groups to discuss the issue in greater detail. The instructor should emphasize to students they may disagree about specific details of their lists. This disagreement is desirable, since it makes the discussion more interesting. After group discussion commences, the instructor should discuss some of the underlying assumptions highlighted by class members. Although the class instructions state that humans have no physiological need for sleep, class members will highlight many negative implications of lack of sleep for relationships and family life. For example, many students will suggest that partners won’t “get a break from each other” or parents won’t have “down time” away from children. These comments demonstrate the social function of sleep. With this activity, many students mention increased stress or rushed lifestyle as an implication of lack of sleep. This implication suggests that sleep serves as a way to slow down life experiences to a more manageable level. From these discussions, students will get a broader understanding of the importance and function of sleep and be more engaged in sleep module discussions.

IB 4.4 Altered States of Consciousness Pre-Test: What Do You Know Now? Activity Type: Ice-Breaker Class Size: This activity works well with all class sizes; it works best when completed as an individual in-class assignment. As a variation, the activity could also be used in small classes by breaking the class into groups of 5–6 students. Class Time Involved: 5–10 minutes to complete survey; more time if discussion will follow Materials Needed: Handout 4.2 Preparation Time: None Student Skills: Psychology Content, Social Skills There are many possible variations to this project. At the beginning of class, the instructor may give students a pre-test handout to determine what they know about altered states of consciousness. This icebreaker could be completed as a group assignment or given to student to complete individually. The

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™


Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life. Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the


widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS. The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate. While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate. International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not


necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org. This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
