Governali, Joseph F.
Journal of School Health, v53 n9 p564-67 Nov 1983

Health education teachers should: (1) develop a sound, defensible educational philosophy; (2) be able to explain why health education is a "basic"; (3) generate student, parent, and community support; and (4) be more active politically and professionally.
