Digital Cameras for Beginners
You just got a digital camera, and you have no idea how it works. Or maybe
you've played around with it a little but you'd like to know more about
the features and options. Or perhaps you're comfortable with the camera
itself but you're not quite getting the really good photos you want. If
so, this class is a great place for you to get to know your camera and start
shooting better pictures. The class will begin with basic tips for improving
the quality of your photos. You'll learn techniques used by professional
photojournalists to create eye-catching, story-telling pictures. Then you'll
take your camera off "auto-pilot" and learn how to improve image
quality by manipulating your camera's settings. The class will conclude
with time to take pictures around campus, transfer them to a computer and
get additional coaching from the teacher. To get the most out of this class,
you will need to bring a digital camera (with a charged battery) and accessories
(especially the instruction manual and the computer connection cable) to
class with you. |

Stepping Into Health
America is getting sicker and sicker and most of us don't "really
know why". "What is Wellness"? Why are diseases like diabetes,
cancer, Alzheimer's, autism, A.D.D., A.D.H.D. and dozens of other diseases
on the rise?
We are genetically designed to live healthy, energetic, vibrant lives.
We do not inherit sickness. Our lifestyles lead us to dysfunction, then
to disease and eventually to death. Stress affects us chemically, emotionally
and physically. The good news is we can change our lifestyles and change
our health without drugs and surgery.
Learn what it means to Eat Well, Move Well, and Think Well so you can
Live Well. The class will cover the why and how to live well. Dr. Andy
Harding and Dr. Scott Lowe have a combined 32 years experience as chiropractors.
During the past 2 years they have both been taking additional training
towards becoming Wellness Certified Doctors. This class will bring simple
steps that anyone can do to become healthier. By living the "innate
lifestyle", you will feel better, have more energy and rest better. |

End of Life Issues for Healthcare
Professionals
Most health care providers will have patients or clients who are working
through end of life issues. Not every health care provider will be directly
responsible to assist the patient and family through this process. However,
all of us indirectly will be asked questions about the process. This course
will address the major components of end of life issues and will provide
health care professionals with the necessary knowledge to address these
issues personally and professionally with our clients and with our own families.
This is a 6-week online course - not a self-study course. You can access
it anytime day or night. It provides a forum for discussion of experiences
of the occupational therapy industry. 8 online contact hours or
0.8 CEUs.
