</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">Students enrolled in this class will spend 2-3 hours weekly leading exercise classes for Licking County schoolchildren with ADHD or disabilities affecting memory and
attention. Research shows that exercise mitigates the symptoms of ADHD and improves academic performance, sometimes dramatically, in all populations. Students enrolled in the course will be educated on the nature of ADHD by a nationally known ADHD academic
coach (Jodi Sleeper-Triplett) and trained on implementing an exercise program called SparkPE. Although students enrolled in this class will not be working as traditional ADHD academic coach/tutors, they will benefit from 12 hours of training in ADHD coaching,
which can be put toward the 30 hours required of those wishing to be certified as ADHD coaches. This course is taught at Ohio State’s Newark campus. Email instructor Jen Anthony at

<b>Service-Learning Workshop at UCAT on November 28<sup>th</sup> </b>This fall, we will be partnering with the University Center for the Advancement of Teaching (UCAT) to present “Designing Service-Learning Into Your Course”. We'll cover the basics of service-learning:
