Sharing assignments in OpenClass
OpenClass is on a mission to improve & democratize education. Through our platform, educators can share assignments privately or with our entire community to improve accessibility of the best learning resources around the world.
Our assignments guide students through research-backed study sessions to reinforce learning. If this review is relevant to your teachings, feel free to add it to one of your classes!
Our format is simple and engaging: students are asked a retrieval question, then shown corrective feedback and a multiple-choice mastery question to assess their understanding of the material. Assignments adapt to unique student needs and continue to draw questions until a student has demonstrated mastery.

Concerning depressant substances, men outnumber women in alcohol abuse 2 to 1 (Johnston et al., 2014). Ethnically, Native Americans have highest rate of alcoholism, followed by White, Hispanic, African, and Asian Americans. With regards to opioid use, roughly 1% of the population has this disorder, with 80% of those being addicted to pain-reliever opioids such as oxycodone or morphine; the remaining 20% are heroin (SAMHSA, 2014).
