The assignments in this course are openly licensed, and are available as-is, or can be modified to suit your students’ needs. Answer keys are available to faculty who adopt Waymaker, OHM, or Candela courses with paid support from Lumen Learning. This approach helps us protect the academic integrity of these materials by ensuring they are shared only with authorized and institution-affiliated faculty and staff.
If you import this course into your learning management system (Blackboard, Canvas, etc.), the assignments will automatically be loaded into the assignment tool.* You can view them below or throughout the course.

Odd-numbered modules also have an optional Voces (“Voices”) activity. Voces are short texts on a variety of subjects written by advanced students and heritage speakers and edited by faculty.

They can also provide excellent starting points for writing assignments or presentations.
