Abstract

This course informs students about the impacts of potentially contaminated sites on community health. Through interaction, research, observation, and practice using community assessment resources, students are encouraged to think beyond the regulatory parameters of brownfields/land reuse sites to develop community-centered approaches to redevelopment. Please note that all course materials and content are provided in the IMS Common Cartridge (IMSCC) format. The content can be accessed by opening the IMSCC file using your organization's Learning Management System application (these include Blackboard, D2L, Canvas etc.). Additional information about accessing Common Cartridge files can be found on the IMS Global Web site: http://www.imsglobal.org/cc. Future plans for the Skills Commons Web site include a feature that will allow users to view and download course content that is provided in the IMSCC format.
