The topic of my group project for HSC 4302 Methods and Materials is Chapter 9 Lesson 4 Managing Stress in Your Life. The target group is college aged students, ages 18-24. 

The purpose of our presentation is to teach college aged students how to effectively manage stress in their everyday life. We will explore some of the common stressors that college aged students face while identifying some of the negative views towards stress. Our presentation will deal with analyzing various coping styles and determining which strategies for coping stress are appropriate. Each coping strategy and skill identified has limitations to use as solutions vary among situations and individuals. The lesson expresses that individuals can handle varying amounts of stress and not all coping styles are effective in every situation. Through practice, students will learn how to reduce and manage stress. This lesson will enable students to feel confident about their ability to manage stress thus allowing them to lead healthier and happier lives.

The date of our presentation is Tuesday November 18, 2008.
