[ATTW-L] Sex Ed as a fitting topic for instruction writing?

[Kaye Adkins]

This spring, I'll be teaching an upper division/graduate level course in
instructional design, and I'd like to start the semester with a refresher
on writing simple instructions and process explanations. I've thought about
what kinds of topics I could assign that aren't something students have
worked with in their other tech comm classes and that don't necessarily
have a lot of internet material that they could copy. During my morning
shower "aha" moment, it occurred to me that maybe they could create
material about sexual health--things like how an IUD works, how to use a
condom, how to avoid STDs, etc. But I'd like to hear what others think
about this idea. Any thoughts? (And I plan to run this by our Title IX
person to see if there are any potential landmines.)

--I don't need suggestions for major projects in the course--I've got those
mapped out. I just want to know what folks think about this as a topic for
instruction writing exercises.

Thanks,
