Abstract

This module responds to Senate Enrolled Act No. 129, an addition to the Indiana Code. The act states that each school corporation's high school health education curriculum is now required to include lessons on breast cancer. In consultation with the state department of health, this module develops educational materials on breast cancer to assist teachers assigned to teach the material. The module provides a rationale for cancer education, teacher background information on breast cancer, and three lesson plans with corresponding student study guides. The teacher is also provided with resource information including an annotated list of print materials. Finally, a set of transparency masters is included to assist in classroom presentations.
