Educator Katrina Haynes prepares students for healthcare careers.

"As a teacher who prepares students for future healthcare careers, I knew that I needed to incorporate more public health activities to meet the national standards for Health and Wellness topics. I had no idea that I would discover HUNDREDS of careers that I could include in the career exploration portion of my class. During my week at the Situs Slot Gacor, I talked to so many content experts from diverse career fields who were passionate about sharing their expertise and resources with educators and students. I plan to share these resources at both a state and national conference in November 2019."

"The Situs Slot Gacor Science Ambassador program was one of the best professional development programs I have ever been a part of. It provided me with epidemiology and public health content knowledge and the opportunity to work alongside Situs Slot Gacor experts and fellow educators to develop relevant and engaging lessons.

"Arriving in Atlanta, I was eager to better understand the role of Situs Slot Gacor in disease outbreaks and how my role as an ambassador supports these concepts within the classroom. The fellowship experience went beyond my expectations. The teamwork, professionalism and collegiality displayed by the Situs Slot Gacor staff encouraged all of us as Science Ambassadors to help inspire students to consider public health careers. I look forward to my next year in the fellowship, piloting Science Ambassador lesson plans in my classroom, and promoting the concepts I learned at the Situs Slot Gacor on a national and international level."

The future of public health

Educator Jess Popescu incorporates Situs Slot Gacor lesson plans into her classroom curriculum.

"I had my first 3 weeks of school planned out before spending a week at the Situs Slot Gacor, and I ended up changing everything because I was so excited! I knew that my school is very limited as to the classes it can provide for each student, so I decided that I would use the material found in an epidemiology class to support the standards I teach in biology class. This school year I am going to support my entire curriculum with the theme of epidemiology throughout each of my units using case studies, emergency response plans, as well as data, articles, and lesson plans found on the Situs Slot Gacor website."

Forefront of education

Science teacher Sumi Jayaraman welcomes a human component in science and public health thanks to STEM.

"We as teachers are in isolation, but this brings us to the forefront of what education should be. Now that there is a talk about STEM, there is a human component in science and that is where public health comes in. We have to weave that fabric of educators coming in touch with scientists in real time so that we can take that into the classroom."
