OpenStax College Success Concise serves First Year Experience, Student Success, and College Transition courses, and can also be used as a supplementary resource in courses across the curriculum. With the input of hundreds of instructors and academic success experts, the authors carefully prioritized the most critical topics to align to briefer courses. The offering covers material such as college culture, time management, mindset, study skills, test preparation, financial literacy, health, and planning for the future. While much of the material is very similar to the original College Success book, this version was holistically edited and updated. Users will see additions such as a new section on group work and greatly expanded coverage of stress management and wellbeing.

This patient education program discusses glaucoma including the anatomy of the eye, types of glaucoma, symptoms and risks, diagnosis, treatment options, and surgery. This resource is a MedlinePlus Interactive Health Tutorial from the National Library of Medicine, designed and developed by the Patient Education Institute.

This is an update of the 2001 curriculum: Frame, L., Berrick, J. D., Sogar, C., Berzin, S. C., & Pearlman, J. CalWORKS and Child Welfare: Case Management for Public Child Welfare Workers. This newly revised curriculum is designed to help students understand the relationship between family economic well-being and parenting and to raise students’ awareness of the important role poverty can play in interfering with parents’ best efforts to raise their children well. Under extreme circumstances, family poverty can place children at significant risk – these are the families who may come to the attention of child welfare agencies. (215 pages)Berrick, J. D., Helalian, H. S., Frame, L., Fabella, D., Lee, K., & Karpilow, K. (2010).

This module is adapted from the original Department of Health module, which you can find here.We were inspired by the original and heartened at the opportunity to integrate across content areas.Our iteration includes direct connections with secondary ELA and showcases content integration across science and social studies with a strong social justice component. ​Furthermore, our adaptation highlights Washington state policy that addresses wildfire awareness, prevention, and preventive measures.Please note the work of the Department of Health Epidemiologists in using data science to understand medical trends and the opportunity to plan health interventions. This is a strong career connection for our students.

 In this lesson we will explore how peer pressure is related to social bullying - when someone uses their influence to harm or humiliate another person or leave them out of the group. We will use scenarios to explore some of the ways we might sometimes feel pressure to go along with our friends even when they don’t want to. We’ll talk about integrity and how to use it to help us make decisions.  And what we can do when we see, or know that someone is being bullied. 

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Microbe-host epithelial cell interactions can promote or diminish the health of an epithelial barrier. The microbes and cells of the cervix and vagina are no exception. For example, high levels of Gardnerella vaginalis can lead to bacterial vaginosis, STDs, and preterm birth, while the presence of Lactobacillus species is usually associated with a healthy reproductive system. The host-microbiome interactions affecting cervicovaginal (CV) epithelial function were studied using CV epithelial cells mixed with G. vaginalis or Lactobacillus crispatus. G. vaginalis, but not L. crispatus, increased CV epithelial cell death. and G. vaginalis mediated an immune response in CV cells, partially through TLR2-dependent signaling pathways. In human CV fluid, cytokine immune profiling showed distinctive clustering of cytokines by Gardnerella spp. abundance and birth outcome..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

Students will be learning about the practices of regenerative agriculture and how regenerative agriculture is a solution to climate change. Embedded in the storyline are scientific concepts relating to carbon cycling and soil microbial activity. The storyline culminates with students creating an infographic that is intended for educating the community about regenerative agricultural practices. 

This presentation aims to increase the students knowledge of physical inactivity and how it’s a major risk factor for developing diabetes, independent of body weight. Moreover we’ll discuss how we fight the global burden of a physical inactive lifestyle.

This open textbook for Concepts of Fitness and Wellness at Georgia Highlands College was created through a Round Seven ALG Textbook Transformation Grant.

In this lesson, students learn about climate anxiety and create a climate anxiety toolkit.

Step 1 - Inquire: Students discuss statistics about the prevalence of climate anxiety in children and young people and try out a strategy to cope with this anxiety.

Step 2 - Investigate: Students research and practice a strategy to manage anxiety and create a one-page mini-poster about this strategy.

Step 3 - Inspire: Students share their mini-poster with the class, and students discuss what they learned from each other.
