Vaping Misconceptions Worksheet

Read the information and scenario, then answer each question. When you write a response, use evidence and explain your reasoning. Vaping products and their effects can vary; this worksheet is for learning, not personal medical advice.

Start with the facts

Vaping devices heat a liquid to create an aerosol. It is not simply water vapour. The aerosol may contain nicotine and other substances, and what is in a product can vary. Some people who smoke use vaping as a way to move away from cigarettes, but vaping is not risk-free and is not recommended for people who do not smoke, especially young people. Nicotine can be addictive, and young people’s brains are still developing. Aerosol breathed out by someone vaping can expose people nearby to substances too. If you are worried about vaping, talk with a trusted adult or health professional.

1.True or false? Vaping aerosol is just harmless water vapour. Use one detail from the information above to support your answer.
TrueFalse
2.Choose the best correction to this claim: “Every vape contains nicotine.”
  • Vaping products can vary; many contain nicotine, but not every product does.
  • All vaping products contain exactly the same ingredients.
  • A product labelled nicotine-free cannot contain any other substances.
3.Fill in the blanks: Nicotine can be , and young people’s brains are still .
4.True or false? Because some adults who smoke use vaping to move away from cigarettes, vaping is a good choice for every teenager.

5.Identify two weak points in the post’s reasoning. Explain why each point does not prove vaping is safe.
6.Write a respectful reply Maia could send. Include one accurate fact and one suggestion for where the group could get trustworthy help or information.
7.A friend says they feel pressured to vape at a gathering. Name two practical ways they could respond or get support without judging anyone.
8.Complete the sentence with a careful, evidence-based statement: “Second-hand vaping aerosol is , because .”
9.Explain the difference between saying “vaping can be less harmful than smoking for some adults who switch away from cigarettes” and saying “vaping is harmless.”
10.Create a short myth-busting message for another teenager. Include one misconception, a more accurate correction, and one supportive next step for someone who is worried about vaping.
