Looking for resources to create a Wilderness Survival/Camping 101 syllabus

Hi everyone,
Recently I became interested in learning about wilderness survival for the first time since I was a Cub Scout. I like to camp, but I'm the type of person who pours a can of fire starter on the camp fire after setting it up tipi style and then goes around bragging about how good I am at fire-starting. (I would be completely lost without a lighter and starter fluid.) I am planning on taking a camping trip with a friend of mine who has a great deal of wilderness survival training after COVID-19 restrictions are loosened, and I would like to come prepared.
I have found outlines for several course syllabi on wilderness survival, but not resources for each of them. Here are two examples below:
Example 1
Lesson I: Introduction
Lesson II: The Psychology of Survival
Lesson III: Introduction to wilderness survival planning
Lesson IV: Fire
Lesson V: Clothing
Lesson VI: Shelters
Lesson VII: Sustenance (Food and Water)
Lesson VIII: Introduction to Signaling
Lesson IX: Introduction to map and compass
Lesson X: Survival Kits
Example 2
Lesson 1: Introduction to Wilderness Safety and Survival
Lesson 2: Survival Essentials for the Wilderness
Lesson 3: Selecting the Right Gear
Lesson 4: Health and Safety
Lesson 5: Treating Illness, Bites, and Stings in the Wilderness
Lesson 6: Traumatic Injuries and Environmental Illnesses
Lesson 7: Environmental Illnesses and Their Treatments
Lesson 8: Understanding the Importance of Your Clothing
Lesson 9: Procuring and Purifying Water
Lesson 10: Food and Nourishment: Plants, Fruits, and Bugs
Lesson 11: Food and Nourishment: Crustaceans, Birds, and Fish
Lesson 12: Food and Nourishment: Tracking and Acquiring Mammals
Lesson 13: Food and Nourishment: Preparing and Cooking Game
Lesson 14: Navigation
Lesson 15: Signaling
I was hoping that perhaps some Tilderinos could help me out in filling in the blanks with resources for wilderness survival topics, or even some anecdotes about learning wilderness survival yourselves.
Thanks for any help!

Got it last summer and been having and absolute blast with it, got a macro tube and a bigger 55-300 lens to play with. But time and time again I keep running into annoying little limitations.
This model doesn't have a shutter release input thing, so remote shutter is locked behind a falling apart android app>bluetooth connection. There's a tonne of small little things like this that I wish I looked into before making the purchase
Essentially - right now I'm thinking that I want to upgrade the actual dslr before investing any more into lenses, but I'm a bit too out of touch to know what the good models to go for 2nd hand or whatever.
Are there any tildoes out there that have some experience with older but capable bodies?

Home brewing
So, I'm currently working up 2 1 gallon apfelweing batches. For a while I was doing many 6 gallon batches, but took a break for a while, and getting back into it. Any other homebrewers out there?...

Hi, I wonder if there are people here likes to collect watches. If so, please share about the watch that you're wearing right now, or maybe your watch collection.
As for me, I own a few of Seiko mechanical watches (SNK809, SKX013, and the SARB017), and a couple of Casio digital watches (Casio Royale and W217H)
Lately I'm starting to appreciate quartz watches even more and I'm starting to look at vintage Seiko and Citizen quartz watches.
