This learning object has been created to educate workers about the occupational risks of being exposed to bloodborne pathogens as described in the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 29 CFR 1910.1030- Bloodborne Pathogen Standard.
In this animated activity, learners examine the symptoms of four cardiac conditions: coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and valvular disease.
Bloodborne Pathogens: Risks of Exposure and Means of Transmission
In this interactive object, learners read about the occupations that are most at risk for bloodborne pathogen exposure. They also read about the most common pathogens and how they are transmitted. This learning object is based on information from the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
Identifying Non-Random Patterns on a Control Chart
In this learning activity you'll recognize several patterns on an Xbar and R control chart. These non-random patterns are indications that the process is not in a state of statistical control.
Learners examine OSHA's guidelines of what to include in a bloodborne pathogen exposure control plan for persons who work in general industry, health care, emergency medical services, law enforcement, education, recreation industries, or other occupations in which there is a potential for exposure to blood, blood products, bodily fluids, or human tissues.
Learners follow an EMT response to the home of an elderly man. The patient complains of having difficulty breathing. In this detailed activity, learners examine response procedures, resources, and medications.
The student reads definitions of four basic assimilation patterns in American society and creates a model for each by clicking and dragging building blocks. The student also writes a brief explanation of each new model.
Learners follow an EMT response at a nursing home involving a patient who complains of having difficulty breathing. In this detailed activity, learners examine response procedures, resources, and medications.
Learners follow an EMT response at a high school involving a patient who complains of having difficulty breathing. In this detailed activity, learners examine response procedures, resources, and medications.
Learners follow an EMT response to a shopping mall where a teenage girl is choking on food. In this interactive object, learners examine response procedures, resources, and medications, and determine what actions the EMTs should take.
Recreational Mathematics: Palindromes in Mathematics and the Search for Patterns
Users study a chart containing numbers 1 to 99 and look for trivial palindromes as well as double and triple iteration palindromes. The reverse and add technique is demonstrated.
Learners follow an EMT response at a restaurant involving a woman with slurred speech who has weakness on her right side. Students examine response procedures, resources, and medications.
