AP Psych: Stress & Health Websites

You have about half a period to explore the following web sites. Don't stress out (hee-hee) if you don't get through all of the material. The first link is a long article about the benefits of stress. Then there is a quiz about resilience. I'm interested in your reaction to wilddivine.com, so shoot me an e-mail (msandler@arlington.k12.ma.us) about what you found interesting in these sites. I'll let you know when there are about five minutes left in the computer lab so you can start on the e-mail.
