One of the components in our hunter safety education program is an hour presentation on survival. What do you teach young students about survival in an hour? Basically, we talk about hypothermia, hyperthermia, signalling, and basic survival supplies. We also have an hour to teach basic first aid as well. The best I've been able to do is show my field pack contents and try to explain why I have each one. We try and get the students to understand and recognize a survival situation and not panic. Pretty tough doings in an hour.
