Lessons to help youths ages 14-18 build and maintain healthy romantic relationships are among a virtual curriculum for Wyoming teachers developed through the University of Wyoming’s Malcolm Wallop Civic Engagement Program.
Alyssa McElwain, an assistant professor in the UW Department of Family and Consumer Sciences, created the 10 lessons about healthy relationships, says Jean Garrison, co-director of the Wallop Civic Engagement Program K-12 Curriculum Project. McElwain is a faculty member in the UW College of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
The lessons are part of the virtual health content library launched April 26 by the project.
“As the recipient of the 2020-21 Wallop Faculty Engagement Fellowship, Alyssa put together this important set of lessons about healthy relationships that is available for school counselors and after-school programs, as well as accessible to students directly, across the whole state,” Garrison says.
