School Health Education is an area that is difficult to break down into specific subjects. Additionally, many of the most relevant resources seem to be government documents and association publications that are difficult to collect comprehensively. It is recommended that the above titles be purchased with existing funds at no cost to the Education Department.

Further collection development will be necessary to support this course as well. It is recommended that the Blackwell's subject heading 36643560 "School hygiene" be turned on to forms in the Education profile. Comparatively, this subject heading generates few titles and can be accommodated within the existing book budget for education.

Costs

There are no new library costs associated with this course.

Note:  The materials required for this course are located in the WAC Bennett Library on the Burnaby campus.  This assessment is based on the assumption that the course will be offered at SFU’s Burnaby campus.  If the course was to be offered at SFU Surrey or Harbour Centre, or as an off-campus course, additional Library costs would be incurred.
