Virtual Field Trip to Learn More About Managing Your Stress    

You can't be a college student and avoid stress, but you can learn to manage it.  There are many sites on the Internet that may help you examine the causes and management of your stress.

One comprehensive web site dealing with stress management is Optimal Health Concept's: The Web's Stress Management & Emotional Wellness Page http://www.optimalhealthconcepts.com/Stress which includes a comprehensive list of stress links (Choose Links that address your particular needs, but be sure to look at the College Student Section)
Additional sites you may find useful are The University of Georgia's  Managing Stress: A Guide for College Students and Geneseo's Hot Topic : College Students & Stress or you may do a Google search for other sites.


Itinerary

Choose three places to visit.   Keep a travel journal ( sheets of paper you will turn in as assignment) to evaluate each site you visit as you look for what you consider the best advice for you.

You may print this assignment from this webpage or you may download a Word version to your computer.
