EuTEACH: SOME MAJOR REFERENCES
(in progress)

In all available modules, you will find specific references pertaining to the targeted issue. In this document, you find some basic textbook in various language, which should allow you to complement your knowledge in the field of adolescent medicine and health. Please, do not hesitate to communicate with us if you think some basic reference should be added to this list. If you are not familiar with adolescent medicine, you can also refer to a short description of key concepts used throughout the curriculum  (key concepts)

If you need extra basic material to build your course we strongly recommend the use of an educational site developed by Prof. Laurence Neinstein in Los Angeles (www.usc.edu/adolhealth) . This site was developed for use by health care professionals involved in either the teaching of adolescent health or clinical care of adolescents and young adults. The material was developed to either stand alone or to be supplemental material to the EuTEACH curriculum of adolescent health. It includes in each section text background, cases, questions and answers, weblinks and a small reference section. The reader can use the text alone, the cases alone or the questions and answers alone. This is not meant to be an exhaustive curriculum in adolescent health but a supplement to other teaching modalities.
