It’s time to start pulling it all together! Students will work on creating, editing, and compiling the various chapters of their self-portrait.
Short Description:
This college-level open textbook covers the most salient environmental issues from a biological perspective.
Long Description:
This open textbook covers the most salient environmental issues from a biological perspective. The text is designed for an introductory-level college science course or as a course for non-science majors. Topics include the fundamentals of ecology, biodiversity, pollution, climate change, food production, and human population growth and the biological concepts that allow a student to understand the large challenges facing our society.

This class explores the foundations of the environmental justice movement, current and emerging issues, and the application of environmental justice analysis to environmental policy and planning. It examines claims made by diverse groups along with the policy and civil society responses that address perceived inequity and injustice. While focused mainly on the United States, international issues and perspectives are also considered.

Students will practice planning for dates and discussing celebrations. Students will gain experience talking about how they celebrate different holidays.
It includes guidance on how the unit was structured and sequenced and can be used while interacting with the Ochre resources. The plan also allows teachers to see an example of planning for a sequence of lessons and
reflect on their own teaching and effective practice. The unit plan is annotated to explicitly show some of the decisions that are made during the planning process.
This unit plan was developed by Ochre Education and science teacher Darcie Clarke. It outlines her approach to teaching a Year 8 unit of science on cells, organs and tissues. It includes guidance on how the unit was structured and sequenced and can be used while interacting with the Ochre resources. The plan also allows teachers to see an example of planning for a sequence of lessons and reflect on their own teaching and effective practice. The unit plan is annotated to explicitly show some of the decisions that are made during the planning process.
This checklist can be used to plan the implementation of your school’s approaches for engaging with families to support student learning. It is based on work by Evidence for Learning, showing implementation in school as a series of stages relating to thinking about, preparing for, delivering, and sustaining change.
This checklist can be paired with AERO’s Promising approaches audit tool – secondary school leaders, which will help schools determine the promising approaches areas requiring most attention.
Georgia Southern Team for IHE Accessibility in OER Implementation Guide. This is a brief Landscape Analysis to uncover key structures and supports to help guide our work to support Accessibility in OER.
In this assignment, each student works in a group of 4-5 students to have an in-depth reading of the two chapters from an Open Education Resource (OER) book https://pdx.pressbooks.pub/urbandevelopment/ (https://pdx.pressbooks.pub/urbandevelopment/). Each student applies the learned knowledge to a city of their choice. Students may continue to examine this selected city in later case study assignments.
Lying directly south of New Orleans on Louisianas coast, Grand Isle often bears the brunt of strong waves and storm surge in the Gulf of Mexico. To protect this town and inland parishes from flooding, engineers constructed a first line of defense.
This module was developed at the School of Public Health, University for the Western Cape for the Postgraduate Certificate in Public Health which was offered as a distance learning module between 2001 and 2008. Health management is considered an important skill area for Public Health professionals. The module covers three key management areas: people management, planning and resource management. Through exploring these areas, the module aims to provide information and assistance at a practical level, continually referring the student to management issues within their own context.Ę As management is cross-cutting in relation to other Public Health fields, the student is also expected to relate much of the management study material to the contexts of the other Certificate modules.
Students teams determine the size of the caverns necessary to house the population of the state of Alabraska from the impending asteroid impact. They measure their classroom to determine area and volume, determine how many people the space could sleep, and scale this number up to accommodate all Alabraskans. They work through problems on a worksheet and perform math conversions between feet/meters and miles/kilometers.
As the digital revolution brings with it radical changes in how and what we learn, people must continue to learn all the time. New technologies make possible new approaches to learning, new contexts for learning, new tools to support learning, and new ideas of what can be learned. This course will explore these new opportunities for learning with a special focus on what can be learned through immersive, hands-on activities. Students will participate in (and reflect on) a variety of learning situations, and will use Media Lab technologies to develop new workshops, iteratively run and refine the workshops, and analyze how and what the workshop participants learn.
Human resource or manpower planning is of great important in the general development and growth of organizations. Thus personnel and Human resources experts, managers and practitioners have now made it known to management that adequate attention be given to it with a view to ensuring better use of other resources especially capital. Organisations have also realized that with increasing competition and complexity in business, more time should be devoted to effective human resources planning to achieve desired goals. Furthermore organisations have known that not only is the overall cost of human resources high , that human element is complex, unpredictable and sometimes difficult to develop or change unlike capital that is relatively easier to acquire, manager or control.
