This video on HIV in Global Health introduces the student to the origin, and major milestones in the HIV pandemic. Students will learn about scientific breakthroughs in HIV research including important trials. The video also provides insight into public health initiatives to limit the pandemic such as ART programs and different testing strategies. Finally the video sums up future challenges for ending the HIV pandemic.

This workbook provides an overview to creating effective academic posters.it offers a series of guidelines for inclusive design, planning and production; dealing with copyright issues, creating the 'message' and graphics and image creation.

This publication accompanies the Assessment in Practice workbook. It provides definitions of practice, means to implement and an action plan for developing appropriate and effective assessment criteria for groups.

This classroom lab allows students to develop skills of the scientific method while exploring the characteristics of enzymes.

This experiment is a lab activity in which students will learn how different liquids react when put together.

Library Carpentry lesson: An introduction to Git. What We Will Try to Do Begin to understand and use Git/GitHub. You will not be an expert by the end of the class. You will probably not even feel very comfortable using Git. This is okay. We want to make a start but, as with any skill, using Git takes practice. Be Excellent to Each Other If you spot someone in the class who is struggling with something and you think you know how to help, please give them a hand. Try not to do the task for them: instead explain the steps they need to take and what these steps will achieve. Be Patient With The Instructor and Yourself This is a big group, with different levels of knowledge, different computer systems. This isn’t your instructor’s full-time job (though if someone wants to pay them to play with computers all day they’d probably accept). They will do their best to make this session useful. This is your session. If you feel we are going too fast, then please put up a pink sticky. We can decide as a group what to cover.

Students apply sound-activated light-up EL wire to create personalized light-up clothing outfits. During the project, students become familiar with the components, code and logic to complete circuits and employ their imaginations to real-world applications of technology. Acting as if they are engineers, students are challenged to incorporate electroluminescent wire to regular clothing to make attention-getting safety clothing for joggers and cyclists. Luminescent EL wire stays cool, making it ideal to sew into wearable projects. They use the SparkFun sound detector and the EL sequencer circuit board to flash the EL wire to the rhythm of ambient sound, such as music, clapping, talking—or roadway traffic sounds! The combination of sensors, microcontrollers and EL wire enables a wide range of feedback and control options.

To teach students about the content and impact (environmental, psychological, social) of different meals with differing levels of satisfaction, we will consider 3 meals: 1) Fast Food; 2) Least Satisfactory Meal; and 3) More satisfactory meal.

A work in progress, CK-12's Math 7 explores foundational math concepts that will prepare students for Algebra and more advanced subjects. Material includes decimals, fractions, exponents, integers, percents, inequalities, and some basic geometry.

As the 21st century continues to progress, mobile devices are becoming an ubiquitous force in students' lives. According to a 2013 Pew Internet Project teen and technology survey (Links to an external site.), about three in four (74%) teens ages 12-17 say they access the internet on cell phones, tablets, and other mobile devices at least occasionally. As the cost of mobile devices continues to decrease, the potential for the use of mobile devices in the classroom becomes more promising and attainable.

Welcome to the “Cultural Appropriation” module, where students are guided through a series of readings on how cultural imperialism and appropriation can be defined and what forms they can take, quizzed on those readings, then asked to apply their understanding of content in a series of Application Activities. This module uses Team-Based Learning pedagogy and Sketchnoting. Part of series of modules belonging to the ISU course, "Native People In American Culture."

Welcome to “Reading the Media” module, where students are guided through a series of readings on how the media treats Native Americans, quizzed on those readings, then asked to apply their understanding of content in a series of Application Activities. This module uses Team-Based Learning pedagogy and Sketchnoting. Part of series of modules belonging to the ISU course, "Native People In American Culture."

Welcome to the “American Indian Literatures & Sexual Violence” module, where students are guided through a series of readings on two separate topics - ways to approach American Indian Literature and sexual violence against Native women - which prepare them for reading Louise Erdrich's novel, "The Round House". Students are quizzed on those readings, then asked to apply their understanding of content in a series of Application Activities.
