2. Digital Safety Campaign (Personal Safety and Injury Prevention)

4. Sexual Health Magazine (Human Development and Sexual Health)

• Students will collaboratively create a magazine tailored for pre-teens/teens about sexual health (e.g. contraceptives, STBBIs). Each student will contribute a page on a specific topic related to human development and sexual health, which will then be compiled into a comprehensive magazine.

5. Mental Health Awareness Video (Mental Health Literacy)

• Students will create a video that not only informs but also helps someone recognize the signs of mental health problems and seek help. This project aims to increase mental health literacy and encourage early intervention and support for those in need.
