KFF - World AIDS Day

Creator: Kaiser Family Foundation | visit site

Grade Range: 8 - 11

The Kaiser Family Foundation prepared this guide to AIDS events and resources, with a particular emphasis on information recognizing the global AIDS epidemic and the efforts that will be required to combat further AIDS spread in Asia and Africa. Thoughtful students will find much to ponder here. The dates extend through 2007, but much of the information remains accurate.

In the Classroom

Plan a "World AIDS Day" activity in your health class or as part of a discussion of current events and challenges to global health and economics. Have students create online posters using Padlet (<a href="/single.cfm?id=10007">reviewed here</a>) or multimedia presentations using UtellStory, <a href="/single.cfm?id=14414">reviewed here</a>, </a> to share on a class wiki or a cafeteria kiosk to raise awareness about HIV/AIDS around the world.
