Description

This face-to-face training includes a discussion of the new broader scope of health literacy, how it fits with teaching language and literacy skills, and how to integrate it into your Adult Basic Education/English for Speakers of Other Languages curriculum. We will explore a variety of free online health literacy resources that you can use in the classroom or to help train teachers build community awareness or form partnerships with local health agencies. We will also do some hands-on exploration of research-based health literacy curricula and some simple activities that will help empower students to take better care of their health.
