In September, 2005, I was given permission to place the “Emergency Guidelines for South Dakota Schools” on-line. The teaching is being enhanced by video clips created by 2^nd semester students.  Eventually we hope to create a quiz to test knowledge of faculty and lay people within the schools.
For the past 2 years, I have been involved with Dr. Cristina Lammers seeking a grant , “Enhancing Adolescent Health Promotion Across Multiple High Risk Behaviors”.
