Providing Social, Emotional, Behavioral, and Special Education Services in School
Welcome to our the third course in the School Health specialization: Providing Social, Emotional, Behavioral, and Special Education Services in School. In this course, you will learn about how social-emotional skills, mental health, and learning are related. We will focus on how schools can support social-emotional learning and promote mental health for all students. We will walk through the reasons that schools should promote student mental health. Next, we’ll review school wide activities to support skill development and prevent social, emotional, and behavioral challenges. Then, we’ll identify strategies for students at risk of developing problems. Finally, we’ll highlight interventions that can be used for students who have significant mental health needs. We will emphasize the ways that schools think about mental health problems and provide services for students with disabilities, which is different than in medical or mental health settings. As part of the course, we will introduce two students to help all of this information come alive. Prepare yourself to learn about an essential piece of student wellness—social-emotional health.

Quantifying Relationships with Regression Models
This course will introduce you to the linear regression model, which is a powerful tool that researchers can use to measure the relationship between multiple variables. We’ll begin by exploring the components of a bivariate regression model, which estimates the relationship between an independent and dependent variable. Building on this foundation, we’ll then discuss how to create and interpret a multivariate model, binary dependent variable model and interactive model. We’ll also consider how different types of variables, such as categorical and dummy variables, can be appropriately incorporated into a model. Overall, we’ll discuss some of the many different ways a regression model can be used for both descriptive and causal inference, as well as the limitations of this analytical tool. By the end of the course, you should be able to interpret and critically evaluate a multivariate regression analysis.

拍摄：像剪辑师一样拍摄
电影语言的一切形式在艺术上都有其正当的理由。正如微电影创作这座冰山，水面上的“拍摄”这一动作，仅仅是冰山的一角，而水面下的“拍什么”、“怎么拍”这些隐藏的不为大多数人知的部分，才是拍摄的真正内涵所在。 也就是说，镜头、场面调度、叙事线索、段落的起承转合、画面的内在隐喻……都应该是在拍摄之前经过深思熟虑的。本门课程将让学习者从实例与操作中了解到如何站在剪辑师的角度，在拍摄前就知道应该怎样安排摄影机的运动？怎样处理两个或更多演员的对话场景？当有几条情节线索相互穿插时怎样合理安排拍摄？……真正一睹拍微电影这座冰山的真容。

Using Educational Technology with English Learners
This course is designed for early career teachers to learn about evaluating and incorporating technology into the classroom to engage students, especially English learners (ELs). Teachers face the challenging expectation of helping ELs achieve grade-level standards and to develop additional 21st century skills, including citizenship, collaboration, creativity, communication, character, and critical thinking. Selecting and utilizing appropriate, high-quality educational technology as part of the learning process can motivate students and facilitate academic success. Throughout the course, we will raise awareness of special linguistic, cultural, and pedagogical considerations for using educational technology with English learners. Teachers will apply best practices to select and use educational technology effectively, and evaluate online educational tools and resources for classroom adoption. Course participants will watch interviews with highly-experienced English as a Second Language (ESL) teachers who will share their personal experiences of utilizing technology to teach 21st century skills to English learners. Teachers will interact with peers in the educational field to discuss how to apply course concepts in their own teaching environment. Finally, course participants will receive practical, classroom-ready recommendations for helping ELs develop 21st century skills using technology. By participating in this course, teachers will increase their own digital literacy skills and be better prepared to serve the English learners in their classrooms through educational technology.

Linux Tools for Text Processing
Many fields, such as data science, bioinformatics, and Linux systems administration, require the manipulation of textual data. Tasks include extracting fields or records meeting certain conditions from structured data (e.g., comma-separated files), combining content from multiple files, applying systematic changes to all lines of a document, sorting or randomizing data, and splitting larger files into smaller files. While these operations could be done by hand, they tend to be time-consuming, tedious and, worst of all, error prone. In this course we systematically explore the text processing tools found in Linux and Linux-like environments that enable you to simplify and automate these tasks. We’ll begin with the simplest utilities, covering the features of head, tail, paste, nl, sort, shuffle, split, tr and cut. We’ll then move onto the tools grep, awk and sed, which provide much more powerful capabilities for searching and manipulation. We conclude with an introduction to regular expressions (regexes) and explain how they can be used to specify richer and more complex patterns. Regex topics will include quantifiers, wildcards, anchors, character classes, grouping and alternation, along with advanced concepts such as word boundaries, lazy and greedy matching, and regex flavors.

Stanford's Short Course on Breastfeeding
Stanford's Short Course on Breastfeeding was co-created with the Philani Maternal Child Health and Nutrition Trust to support new mothers around the world. This engaging, one-week learning experience, provides participants with everything they need to know to more successfully establish breastfeeding – or support a new mother who has decided to breastfeed. We created the course because we recognize that there is a very small window in which successful, exclusive breastfeeding can be established, and that many new mothers are mastering this skill during a busy and sometimes stressful time. Brought to life by beautiful illustrations and interviews with international mothers, we hope to reach the broadest spectrum of mothers, helping them understand the current recommendations, challenges, benefits and practical considerations around breastfeeding - while simultaneously inspiring them to consider breastfeeding as the first choice for feeding their babies.
