Course Orientation Week
All OPEN NH courses begin with an optional face-to-face orientation, allowing participants to become familiar with course login procedures and overall course requirements. Orientation to the course continues online during the first week, so that participants become familiar with course expectations and get acquainted with their instructor and fellow classmates.

Six Weeks of Online Activities
Following the orientation, courses continue for six weeks, emphasizing theory-to-practice applications. Course work includes online discussions, reflections, readings, and projects. Course participants receive a certificate of participation that may be applied to their individual professional development plans.

HE-01   Teaching and Learning About HIV in the 21st Century Classroom
HIV constitutes an increasing threat to student health.  This course will present participants with the most up-to-date information about HIV/AIDS.  The course covers the basic biology and life cycle of the HIV virus, as well as the transmission, treatment, and extent of the disease.  Participants will also explore best practices in methodology and instructional design for incorporating their new knowledge about HIV/AIDS into their health curricula, and delivering it to their students.

HE-02 New Hampshire Health Education Guidelines and Assessment Project (HEGAP)
This is an introduction to the health education guidelines for elementary, middle and high schools to align teaching of health with national standards and enhance the delivery of health education. Participants will learn how to incorporate health skills to help students make healthier choices, use project based assessment to be certain students can apply these skills to enhance their health, and share their experiences doing this. Participants will understand the importance of helping students acquire the skills to: analyze influences, access reliable information, make decisions and set goals, and communicate about health, while learning about core health content. After trying this in their classroom, participants will meet to share their experiences.
