2025 NCE Conference

I will share my journey through developing a hands-on curriculum for HS students (sharing my Health Science 2 curriculum specifically) that has been well-received by students and is budget friendly. I'll also share community resources I utilize, how to open up conversations with those resources, as well as sharing many specific labs and simulations I use.

This hands-on course provides a foundational understanding of infectious diseases, how disease transmission is reduced and prevented in healthcare and resources available to educators. Hands on activities, including donning and doffing PPE and effective hand hygiene and disinfectant use will be demonstrated to give educators basic knowledge of these critical processes and how to implement these activities in their classrooms.

Learning Objectives:
1. Understand where germs live, how they are transmitted to cause infection, and what strategies we can use to prevent infection.
2. Identify resources available to help support effective IPC education in Healthcare CTE Classrooms.
3. Review and practice proper PPE donning and doffing processes, effective hand hygiene and disinfectant use.

Join us as we explore the art of finding the perfect hook to captivate your students' attention. Discover strategies to infuse excitement and curiosity into every lesson, ensuring that learners are motivated from the start. Dive into practical examples, creative approaches, and collaborative discussions to enhance your ability to create memorable and impactful hooks that not only grab attention but also pave the way for meaningful learning experiences. Learn how to make each lesson a journey of discovery for your students, leaving a lasting impression.

Learn great steps to ensure a successful first day, first week, and year of school. Learn to keep the power from the first moment students walk into your room, eliminate most discipline problems, and create a fun, respectful learning atmosphere. Every Monday is the start of school!
We will incorporate techniques that help you eliminate most classroom distractions, time ‘stealers’, and problems. Discipline at the Door, Keeping Small Problems Small, Walk the Talk, protect your learning environment, and other great teaching skills will be presented to you in a way that empowers you to control your classroom and motivate your students to be successful.

Embark on an immersive exploration of effective teaching methodologies with our session, "Unveiling Mastery: The Power of 'Show, Don't Tell' in Health Science Education." Dive into the transformative approach of demonstrating concepts through tangible experiences, visuals, and real-world applications. Learn how this technique fosters deep understanding, engagement, and retention among students. Join us for practical activities, interactive demonstrations, and lots of fun as we unveil the art of 'Show, Don't Tell' to elevate the learning experience in your classroom, creating a lasting impact on students' knowledge and comprehension.

(Part 1) Instructors will receive teaching techniques and affordable hands-on easy to use lessons for guiding students through a detailed renal system (nephron) and its relationship with the adrenal gland and cardiovascular system. Teachers will also receive activities on how to apply pathology and a student research activity of ‘Case Studies’ to add this hands-on lesson. Participants will take away their amazing renal system at the end of the workshop!
