In this problem-based learning module, students will be asked to brainstorm ideas and think innovatively both independently and collaboratively in addressing a real-world problem that is relevant to their daily lives and health. Are students aware of their calorie intake and how it affects their overall health? Students will investigate the calories consumed in a typical day and how much physical activity is needed to stay healthy and fit. Students/teams will be encouraged to use the internet for research purposes in their design phase. Students will utilize various online platforms to design an infographic that can be shared with relevant individuals in the community and others in the school building

This course encompasses the study of eating as it affects the health and well-being of every human. Topics include taste preferences, food aversions, the regulation of hunger and satiety, food as comfort and friendship, eating as social ritual, and social norms of blame for food problems. The politics of food discusses issues such as sustainable agriculture, organic farming, genetically modified foods, nutrition policy, and the influence of food and agriculture industries. Also examined are problems such as malnutrition, eating disorders, and the global obesity epidemic; the impact of food advertising aimed at children; poverty and food; and how each individual's eating is affected by the modern environment.

Increased energy use per capita is linked to decreased poverty rates. Modest energy increases can lead to significant poverty reduction, but the relationship is not always linear. Factors like governance and social policies also influence poverty levels. Beyond a certain threshold, further energy increases have diminishing returns.

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:
"TRPP2 and STIM1 are important proteins that facilitate the transport of calcium ions in the cell. TRPP2 is a calcium channel encoded by the PKD2 gene, which is mutated in polycystic kidney disease. STIM1, meanwhile, acts as a calcium sensor, monitoring and regulating calcium concentrations. For the first time, researchers have demonstrated that the two proteins form a functional complex in embryonic kidney cells and native vascular smooth muscle cells. Together, TRPP2 and STIM1 modulate store-operated calcium entry to maintain cellular calcium balance. In mice, that synergy protected against agonist-induced contraction of the aorta, suggesting that the TRPP2–STIM1 complex helps maintain blood vessel tone. Further studies could help clarify the full functional repertoire of the TRPP2–STIM1 complex and harness this powerful duo to keep blood vessels healthy in patients..."
The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

This second lesson enables students to apply what they know about human reproduction via PIV sex (Lesson 1 of this series) to other means of reproduction. They will not only learn the steps in how insemination and IVF work to create a pregnancy, but they will also learn that people other than parents can provide the genetic material (eggs, sperm, and embryos) and give birth to a child for someone else (surrogates). Students will be working in small groups to help one another understand the concepts and to practice using the inclusive language that the educator modeled in the first lesson.

Building on lessons learned over several summers, Kristin Raab—Health Impact Assessment and Climate Change Program Director in the Environmental Health Division of Minnesota’s Department of Health—packaged information from diverse communities into a cohesive toolkit that communities of all sizes can use to prepare for heat waves. The Minnesota Extreme Heat Toolkit describes changing weather conditions in Minnesota, the magnitude of potential health consequences from extreme heat, and key steps communities can take to prevent heat-related illnesses and deaths. The toolkit acknowledges that extreme heat response plans will vary with the size of the community and the habits of its residents: examples from the mostly rural Olmsted County and the urban centers of Saint Paul and Minneapolis illustrate a range of community plans that could be useful in Minnesota and beyond.

A crosswalk that aligns the 2024 American School Counselor Association (ASCA) Mindsets & Behaviors for Student Success, Washington State Financial Education Learning Standards, Washington State Health & Physical Education Learning Standards to the WA Social Emotional Learning Standards and Benchmarks. The downloadable document includes both more detailed references to standards and an "at-a-glance" version of the crosswalk. Purpose: This resource is intended to be used as a reference tool to show connections and/or alignment between the Washington State Social Emotional Learning Standards and Benchmarks and a selection of other related state standards. For example, this tool can support content integration, identification of gaps in curriculum, program alignment, cross-department collaboration, appraisal of student growth & development, reflection of local priorities, etc. When choosing the appropriate learning standard for students, it is important to ensure that the standards are directly aligned with the learning objective(s) for the lesson or intervention and the developmental level of the student(s). Refer to Washington Social Emotional Learning Indicators for more information.
