The Modules
COV-Ed is organized into ten learning modules. Each module is focused on a topic related to the pandemic and can stand alone, so it’s possible to pick and choose modules, or complete all ten. A narrative tells the story of three high school students as they encounter the challenges of the pandemic. "Challenges" function as learning activities and include the following components:
- Story episode – a narrative of how the students encounter the pandemic
- Performance Expectations– learning goals
-
Challenges – lessons and activities
- Professional Opportunities – learn about the professionals working to combat the pandemic
Teacher Guides
