An instructor's manual and student activity guide on respiration therapy technician are provided in this set of prevocational education materials which focuses on the vocational area of health occupations. (This set of materials is one of ninety-two prevocational education sets arranged around a cluster of seven vocational offerings: agriculture, home economics, distributive education, health occupations, world of work, trade and industry, and office occupations.) The instructor's guide is organized into the following elements: title of activity, duration of activity (five to nine periods), activity goals, six instructional objectives, and activity implementation (description, materials needed, safety considerations, teacher preparation prior to class, during the class, follow-up activities, and a question sheet to be duplicated). The student activity guide provides step-by-step instructions (narrative and illustrations) for completing each instructional objective (e.g., identify the parts of a nasal cannula, attach the nasal catheter to a mannequin and adjust the oxygen flow to two liters). At the end of each set of instructions is a student check point (evaluation activity). An occupational description for a respiratory therapist concludes the document. (JH)
