Course Description:GEO 212. Introduction to Meteorology (4 credit hour). Physical and chemical conditions that regulate global weather phenomena. Includes structure of the atmosphere, temperature, humidity, air pressure and winds, the development of weather systems, tornadoes and hurricanes, and the parameters that affect local and global climate. Laboratory includes image interpretation, field observation and prediction. This is formatted as an 8 week/module course.Learning Outcomes:1. Describe the origin and structure of the earth and its atmosphere. (1, 7)2. Use scientific reasoning to explain the relationship between the earth and sun and how solarand terrestrial radiation affects temperature, air pressure and wind patterns. (1, 2, 7, 8)3. Explain the role of heat, moisture and winds in generating clouds, precipitation and severeweather. (2-6, 8)4. Model major atmospheric circulation systems and oscillations. (1-8)5. Describe climatic regions and assess climate change predictions. (1-8)6. Interpret meteorological data to predict weather conditions. (1-8) 

This chemistry activity was created to enhance student learning around the gas laws. It guides students through PhET simulations, the creation of graphs from collected data, and then asks comprehension questions afterward.chemistr

A compiled OER Lab Manual for use in the General Biology I course for Biology Majors (BIO 181) at Mohave Community College. The material is adapted from resources that are found in the OER arena and are free to use by anyone who chooses to do so.

General Chemistry IFundamental concepts in chemistry presented at a level appropriate for science majors. An exploration of matter and the changes it undergoes using both qualitative and quantitative methods. Course GoalsStudents will earn a greater understanding of chemical principles and concepts, become familiar with scientific methods and general laboratory principles, and apply basic principles of chemistry.

Introduction to the theory and techniques of differential and integral calculus of elementary functions with emphasis on applications in business and finance, taught both online and in-person in Fall 2022 at Yavapai College. Note: Computer use and graphing calculator required (TI-83/84 recommended).This course makes use of an embedded OER textbook, but also uses Lumen OHM homework assignments; these require a subscription to Lumen, which in this instance was provided by the institution. In cases where that is not possible, the homework assignments will need to be replaced, or students will have to pay a fee to access the homework. Contact Lumen to find out more about student access to its homework platforms.

This course introduces the theory that directs nursing skills and the development of nursing practice. These skills will help you to deliver care in a safe, patient-centered, and evidence-based manner.  We will be using the nursing process as a framework for the care and implementation of appropriate nursing interventions.  Basic to intermediate nursing skills are developed.  

Course DescriptionIntroduction to the concepts of psychosocial nursing care for clients throughout the life span. Emphasis on the use of the nursing process to assess and integrate therapeutic communication techniques, learning/teaching, psychosocial, diversity/cultural, spiritual, nutritional, pharmacological, legal and ethical issues. Introduction to adaptive and maladaptive, psychosocial and physiological responses related to commonly occurring psychological disorders as seen in the various healthcare settings. Integration QSEN competencies of patient-centered care, teamwork and collaboration, evidence-based practice, quality improvement, safety and informatics. Prerequisite: Admission to nursing program. Corequisite: NSG 140, NSG 142, NSG 143, NSG 145.

Professional Nursing Concepts is an 8 week hybrid course with 6 of the 8 weeks offered in person (the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 7th, & 8th week) with the other 2 weeks asynchronous on Canvas. During this course we are going to review and expand upon topics that you have learned in your previous nursing courses such as prioritization, delegation, collaboration, etc. In addition we will begin to prepare you for the next steps starting your career as a new graduate nurse, where we will be learning the culture and expectations of the nursing profession, completing resumes, and NCLEX tips and application. 

Concepts, procedures, and techniques to achieve the optimal diet for health and fitness,principles of basic nutrition, nutritional needs throughout the lifecycle and a scientific investigation into one's own personal health and wellness status.

This is a course for faculty that will introduce the meaning, benefits and challenges of open educational resources and open pedagogy course design. You will learn where to locate OER, and how to revise, remix, and create new resources in your courses, and how to share your courseware with colleagues. It is designed to impart the skills and knowledge needed to create and teach an entire course using OER.THIS IS THE PUBLIC VERSION of a self-paced course facilitated by YC faculty, librarians, and instructional designers on a rotating basis, and is required for any faculty member to complete before teaching "No Cost OER Textbook" courses.  As such, some of the content applies specifically to the needs and policies of Yavapai College.
