Great Resources for Teaching Life Skills
So much of what students have to navigate in life takes skills that aren't always taught in the classroom. Technology can teach them about their health and wellness and help them develop skills such as conflict resolution, safe social networking, and getting along with others. Students can also learn essential technical skills -- from keyboarding to resume writing to word processing -- that they'll need to succeed in school and careers. In the list below, you'll see tools that offer a variety of learning experiences tailored to the specific life skills students will be learning, from reading stories to playing interactive games to creating digital media to analyzing their own personality profiles. There are also handy lesson resources teachers can use to build engaging units.
