Topic: Sleep

Targeted Learners: (in a concise paragraph, briefly indicate key points of learner assessment, including targeted age, common
characteristics, identify and support a learning need)
Target learners will include Sault College Students aged 18-25. The focus of the presentation will be the importance of quality sleep,
strategies to obtain quality sleep, and benefits to academic performance. According to Zeek et al., college students demonstrate poor
sleep habits, which may have an effect on academic performance (p. 81).

Overall Goal: To provide students with the knowledge and tools to improve their sleep habits.
