Track Description
The Disease Prevention strand in the Tennessee Curriculum Framework for Lifetime Wellness includes the Course Goal: Understand attitudes and behaviors for preventing and controlling disease. This goal lists as a terminal objective: The student will be able to "determine heredity, environmental, and lifestyle factors which place them at risk for disease and develop a personal plan to reduce controllable risk." This Track was created to provide teachers with materials to use to address the learning gap, "My students do not understand the widespread effects of tobacco use on a teenager's life."
