Health is a high demand course and became a natural for this program. The results of that challenge are now in the form of a course entitled Wellness Skills for Life. The first group of students is now taking the course. The results are looking very positive. Students have the opportunity to learn basic concepts and the facts that support those concepts in an introductory section called Read and Remember.
Students then move to an activity called Look It Up.
In this section they will look at a variety of websites that offer activities and information on the topic. The sites are hyper-linked within the lesson so they are just a click away. Assignments from these websites are submitted to the instructor via email. The third component is called Community Activity. In this experience students will be contacting and interacting with a variety of community resources that will give them a better understanding of the concept.
