The purpose of this lesson is to provide teachers with a chemistry lab safety contract and signature for both parent and student to sign. This document sets the safety precedent for the year.

The Open for Antiracism (OFAR) Program – co-led by CCCOER and College of the Canyons – emerged as a response to the growing awareness of structural racism in our educational systems and the realization that adoption of open educational resources (OER) and open pedagogy could be transformative at institutions seeking to improve. The program is designed to give participants a workshop experience where they can better understand anti-racist teaching and how the use of OER and open pedagogy can empower them to involve students in the co-creation of an anti-racist classroom. The capstone project involves developing an action plan for incorporating OER and open pedagogy into a course being taught in the spring semester. OFAR participants are invited to remix this template to design and share their projects and plans for moving this work forward. 

Individuals preparing for human or social services professions have been influenced by family and societal events, values, beliefs, and assumptions which have interacted with their lives. Students will examine those influences (including gender, culture, and socioeconomic status) for the purpose of gaining insight into the ways their professional practice might be affected. Projects will include a professional practice action plan. Prerequisite: upper-division standing.

Child labor is the practice of having children engages in economic activity, on a part- or full-time basis. The practice deprives children of their childhood, and is harmful to their physical and mental development. Poverty, lack of good schools and the growth of the informal economy are considered to be the key causes of child labor in India.

Information can be packaged in a variety of digital formats that have their own properties and can lead down certain information paths. In this lesson, students will explore properties of digital formats in order to identify the best format to meet their information needs.

In an upper-level seminar course, students bear significant responsibility for their learning. This activity provides the framework to help them identify the exact topics that they will discuss throughout a course in Environmental Analysis. The students are given constraints so that they don't either wander completely aimlessly through the environmental literature or pick only papers on their favorite topic. They are instead asked to dip into the literature to find papers that deal with analysis of pollutants in air, water, and solid matrices, and to have at least one that is relevant to climate change.

One of the major components of the First Year Seminar in Natural Sciences (NSF101) is to introduce students to library research. The library orientation session exposes students to library resources such as books, videos, journals, databases. The "Choosing Your Career" assignment reinforces using the library by searching for information on a career, retrieving sources from select databases and evaluating the information found in a written reflection. Reflection questions are added to guide the student in their search and their approach to their career choice.
The goal is to integrate library literacy as part of their developing college learning skills. This assignment effectively introduces information literacy as the ability to find and use information and critically think about the information found when deciding on a career path.
This assignment consists of the following;
90-minute library orientation session (one lecture session)
followed up by library research (students' time)
initial draft (hard copy for instructor comments)
written revision (students' time)
a final written 1500-word research reflection. (deposited on student ePortfolio)
Objectives
1. Identify one science profession that interests you
2. Research the profession using library resources
3. Write a 1500-word reflection including the questions posed

This OER activity was created by Danielle Fulcher as part of the 2024 World Language OER Summer work and training. Educators worked with Chrystal Liu, Nick Ziegler and Dorann Avey to create OER Learning Plans and materials. The attached activity is designed for 9 - 12 World Language Arts teachers for Novice Learners of Spanish. Students will analyze the elements of various audio files, and draw comparisons from the recordings to their own interpretation of Christmas celebrations. This Lesson Plan addresses the following NDE World Language Standard(s): NE WL 1.2c, NE WL 1.3c, NE WL 2.1b and NE WL 4.1bIt is expected that this Lesson Plan will take students 45 minutes to complete.

This resource is a 32 slide Desmos Activity. In the activity, students answer questions about calculating the raidus, diameter, circumference and area of given circles. Each correct answer allows them to advance to the Pi Coloring Page to add color to a section. 

Circumlocution is a necessary skill for negotiating meaning in the target language.  This activity could be used at any level as partner practice, as a written assessment, or as a game like "Taboo".  Phrases should be taught in advance or students may have them available.  Vocabulary could be varied according to the unit and level of instruction.  This activity could be a filler for a few minutes at the end of class or as a longer activity.  

This exercise features five different sample citations of the same quote and source. Students assess for plagiarism, other errors and quality of incorporation.

The Citation Table is a graphic organizer where specific phrases and sentences are analyzed to gather a more broad understanding of a text.

The Citations lesson is mapped to Information has Value and Scholarship as Conversation Frames. It discusses why citations are a foundation of scholarly communication and the basic components of a citation. Through infographics and videos, students will learn the differences between paraphrasing, summarizing and quoting.
