Table of Contents

About the Authors

David K. Lohrmann is a professor of applied health science at Indiana University, Bloomington. His expertise includes school health programs, prevention education, program evaluation, and education reform. He also serves as a consultant for the Michiana Coordinated School Health Program Leadership Institute, which is sponsored by the Great Lakes Chapter of the American Cancer Society, the Indiana State Department of Health, and the Michigan Department of Education. Lohrmann was previously director of the Evaluation Consultation Center at the Academy of Educational Development and director of curriculum for the Troy School District in Michigan.

His article "A Complementary Ecological Model of the Coordinated School Health Program," initially published in Public Health Reports (2010) and subsequently in the Journal of School Health (2010), provided the first reconceptualization of this approach in more than 20 years. Additionally, he coauthored Comprehensive School Health Education in the book Health is Academic: A Guide to Coordinated School Health Programs, published by Teachers College Press (1998).

Lohrmann, who holds a doctorate in health education from the University of Michigan, is a fellow and former president of the American School Health Association. He received the William A. Howe Award in 2009 from the American School Health Association in recognition of career professional service and the Scholar Award in 2010 from the American Association for Health Education for career scholarly productivity.

Sandra Vamos is a senior advisor on health education and health literacy for the Centre for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control at the Public Health Agency of Canada. Vamos joins the centre from the faculty of education at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, British Columbia, where she was an associate professor of health education. Her expertise developed through her experiences in Canada, Australia, and the United States and includes health-promoting schools, health literacy, curriculum development, and teacher preparation, with a focus on guiding improvements in school health education to enhance health literacy through curricular innovations involving the coordinated school health program approach.

Vamos was previously a faculty member in the Department of Exercise Science, School Health Education Master of Science program at Southern Connecticut State University. In Connecticut, she participated in the National Health Education Assessment Project initiative, which is designed to direct improvements in health education planning and delivery by aligning curriculum, instruction, and assessment. She was also a faculty member and program coordinator at Canisius College in Buffalo, New York, where she developed both undergraduate and graduate health education programs.

Vamos has a doctorate in education in curriculum and instruction from the University of Sarasota, Florida, U.S.A.

Paul Yeung recently completed his doctoral degree in educational psychology in the Faculty of Education at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia. His expertise includes health literacy, school health education and promotion, immigration and acculturation, and multilingualism and multiculturalism.

Yeung researched health literacy for the Centre for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control at the Public Health Agency of Canada. He is presently serving as one of the directors of the British Columbia chapter of the Canadian Counselling and Psychotherapy Association.
