This lesson contributes to anti-bullying and anti-harassment efforts by teaching about respect and support. There is a particular need to address these topics for those whose identities have been historically oppressed, such as: LGBTQIA+ (Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, asexual and (+) other sexual and gender minorities), BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and other People Of Color), and people with disabilities. The Oregon Health Education Standards require respect and support to be covered. This lesson provides an opportunity for students to: • Consider identity specific harassment and bullying among their peers. • Reflect on how they felt when they were disrespected. • Examine the school’s climate of safety and support. Working together in small groups, students are asked to suggest ideas for change and improvement to promote a safe and inclusive environment for all.

Puberty brings a natural curiosity and growing sexual interest. Yet, young people are bombarded with various and often conflicting messages about sex and sexual behaviors. Some of the messages likely come from parents, guardians, schools and other responsible sources. However, they can often be drowned out by competing messages from media, peers and society. These often inaccurate, unrealistic and, in many cases, developmentally inappropriate views of sex can create pressure on young people to become sexually involved with another person before they are ready. This lesson helps students differentiate among the many competing messages and messengers. It helps them become critical media and popular culture consumers. It also considers both the positive and negative impact social media can have on relationships and examines the risks of sexting.

Peers take on a growing importance in a young person’s life during adolescence. Young teens feel an increasing need to fit in, have friends, be liked and appear grown-up. All these developmental qualities put this age group at risk of succumbing to peer pressure to engage in behaviors that may not be healthy or align with their values. This lesson explores the influence of positive and negative peer pressure and helps students develop skills to resist pressure to engage in sexual behaviors for which they are not ready. Teen Leaders enact role-plays to help students identify the effectiveness of assertive communication. The students then practice using assertive communication skills and techniques to resist pressure to engage in unhealthy behaviors.

Being able to identify characteristics of healthy and unhealthy relationships and recognize when someone might be in an unhealthy situation are important. This helps young people sustain good and nourishing friendships, family relationships, and romantic and sexual relationships. This lesson asks students to identify traits they look for in a relationship and qualities they can bring to a healthy relationship. It uses age-appropriate examples they may recognize from their own and their peers’ experiences to help them differentiate the sometimes blurry lines between healthy and unhealthy relationship traits. Finally, the lesson identifies different kinds of abuse. It encourages students to identify trusted adults they might turn to for help if they are in an unhealthy or abusive relationship, or if they are unsure if their relationship is healthy.

This demonstration shows how water absorbs more heat than air. The corollary that is made is that the oceans are absorbing a lot of the heat related to climate change. The video tutorial shows an engaging demonstration that teachers can do live in their classrooms as part of a larger lesson/discussion about global warming. The video itself also includes an animation of how greenhouse gases contribute to global warming and concludes by mentioning simple solutions for students.

This record includes training materials associated with 'Network Know-how and Data Handling' workshops offered by Australia's Academic Research Network (AARNet). The workshops are delivered to library and eResearch staff at universities, as well as researcher communities, as train-the-trainer events, part of a broader infrastructure literacy strategy.
This workshop is a ‘train-the-trainer’ session that covers topics such as jargon busting, network literacy and data movement solutions. The workshop will also provide a peek at some collaborative research tools such as Jupyter Notebooks and CloudStor. You will learn about networks, integrated tools, data and storage and where all these things fit in the researcher’s toolkit.
This workshop is targeted at staff who would like to be more confident in giving advice to researchers about the options available to them. It is especially tailored for those with little to no technical knowledge and includes a hands-on component, using basic programming commands, but requires no previous knowledge of programming.

The New England Collaborative Data Management Curriculum (NECDMC) project is led by the Lamar Soutter Library at the University of Massachusetts Medical School in partnership with several libraries in the New England region.
NECDMC is an instructional tool for teaching data management best practices to undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers in the health sciences, sciences, and engineering disciplines. Each of the curriculum’s seven online instructional modules aligns with the National Science Foundation’s data management plan recommendations and addresses universal data management challenges. Included in the curriculum is a collection of actual research cases that provides a discipline specific context to the content of the instructional modules. These cases come from a range of research settings such as clinical research, biomedical labs, an engineering project, and a qualitative behavioral health study. Additional research cases will be added to the collection on an ongoing basis. Each of the modules can be taught as a stand-alone class or as part of a series of classes. Instructors are welcome to customize the content of the instructional modules to meet the learning needs of their students and the policies and resources at their institutions
