We call the approach presented in this text a skills-based approach to health education. We do this by addressing the critical aspects of a skills-based approach, including how to teach and develop health-related skills (with a focus on the National Health Education Standards), how to emphasize skill development in the curriculum, and how to implement the approach in the classroom"-- ER -
