a. Participating in the "Great American Smokeout"
b. Working with a local employer to provide smoking cessation education
c. Providing one-on-one counseling to smokers
d. Advocating for increased taxes on tobacco products
B
Working with a local employer to provide smoking cessation education is the only example of health teaching at the systems-level of practice. Participating in the "Great American Smokeout" occurs at the community level and is not health teaching. Providing one-on-one counseling to smokers is health teaching at the individual-level of practice. Advocating for increased taxes on tobacco products occurs at the systems-level of practice, but it is not health teaching.
