Household Food Security: Module 2: Participatory Extension for Household Food Security, Study Guide
The purpose of the module is to give the Household Food Security Facilitator mobilization skills, knowledge and attitudes necessary to facilitate collective action in rural urban social processes, specifically of households through the use of participatory approaches. In this module you will learn how to use participatory approaches to facilitate improved household food security. The purpose of Module 2 is to: h elp you understand why it is important to use participatory approaches, instead of r
Household Food Security Module 3: Glossary and Bibliography
In this module your main task is to plan and carry out a set of activities with selected households in the community to help them gain a good understanding of their current and possible future use of natural resources in their area. Why is this important? As people become informed and take actions to manage their use of resources responsibly to obtain food, they will be able to sustain themselves and their families, break the cycle of poverty and protect the environment at the same time. To prep

Community Food Security Assessment Toolkit
This report provides a toolkit of standardized measurement tools for assessing various aspects of community food security. It includes a general guide to community assessment and focused materials for examining six basic assessment components related to community food security. These include guides for profiling general community characteristics and community food resources as well as materials for assessing household food security, food resource accessibility, food availability and affordabilit
Connecting Concepts: Plant Biology/Water Relations 3: Plant Adaptations for Water Stress
Students help a restoration ecologist choose plants that will grow at Alamitos Creek, California, based on plant adaptations for dry conditions and the concept of water potential. Students will: 1) complete a simulated applied research project in which they review concepts pertaining to plant adaptations for dry conditions, construct a checklist of criteria for plants adapted to grow at Alamitos Creek, and select 3 plants that meet criteria for growth at Alamitos Creek using inventories of real
Connecting Concepts: Plant Biology/Water Relations 2: Water Flow Through Whole Plants
Students follow movement of water through a plant from the soil to the atmosphere. They calculate water potential at each of 5 locations in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum. Students will: 1) predict the value and direction of the solute potential and pressure potiential in different parts of a plant, given information about physical conditions; and 2) calculate the water potential for soil, root cell, xylem, mesophyll cell, leaf air space, and atmosphere.
Connecting Concepts: Plant Biology/Water Relations 1: Water Potential Equation
Students investigate water potential in various, real-life situations. They review components of the water potential equation with the help of Professor Waterman. Students will: 1) get descriptions of solute and pressure potential and the water potential equation; 2) learn how to predict the movement of water under various conditions; and 3) gain experience using the water potential equation, and gain familiarity with the associated terminology.
Connecting Concepts: Plant Biology/Water Relations
This tutorial/simulation consists of three topics. In topic 1, students investigate water potential in various, real-life situations. They review components of the water potential equation with the help of “Professor Waterman”. Students will: 1) get descriptions of solute and pressure potential and the water potential equation; 2) learn how to predict the movement of water under various conditions; and 3) gain experience using the water potential equation, and gain familiarity with t
Assemble/disassemble electrical/electronic components
This unit gives the basis for the skills to select and install security equipment. Students will learn about selecting the appropriate equipment and tools required to complete the installation, the basic operation of a control panel and the various devices connected to it, terminating wires correctly and following safety procedures as they relate to the security industry.

Transport apparatus and material
Describes procedures relating to the installation of an
electronic security system. Students will learn how to order the required security
components for a job, transport equipment to the location of the installation, check
all components on site before installation and complete the appropriate records
after installation.

Practicum in Enterprise Security
In this course, students act as new employees (as enterprise security technicians) in a dynamic, rapidly growing, online real estate auction company called C-Bay. Their jobs, as members of a team of four technicians, is to solve real-life security problems at C-Bay. They are active learners, engaging in hands-on tasks such as analyzing C-Bay's security policy, assessing network problems, monitoring a network, responding to network attacks, educating users, and developing emergency response.
