Chapter 10: Additional Resources

Chapter Overview

The next stage of curriculum development after the Implementation Guide is an Educator’s Guide. The Educator’s Guide will be robust in guiding faculty on course and module development and more importantly providing links to resources, many developed by the BHSS Project Team to enhance student learning. At present, we are listing a sample of books and technology resources that may be helpful in conceptualizing the implementation of new learning objectives.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Resources

The BHSS Project Team strives to deliver content through an equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) framework. This section provides resources for developing behavioral healthcare curriculum through an EDI lens. We believe the process for designing an EDI framework is dynamic and requires continuous improvement and resource sharing. Your program may already use resources that support incorporating EDI principles into curriculum and instruction; this list is intended to provide additional resources to consider. The BHSS Project Team will refine and add to this list as we develop the Educator’s Guide and V2 of this Implementation Guide.
