Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious Diseases
Category: For Educators, Strategies for Outreach, Education, and Communication, Lesson Plans, Media, and Collaborative Research, For Graduate Students
Resource Type: Web-Based
Date Posted: 11/13/2007

Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious Diseases has two objectives: to introduce students to major concepts related to emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases and to convey to students the relationship between basic biomedical research and the improvement of personal and public health. The unit consists of lesson plans, which are accessed through the Teacher's Guide section of the Web site and the multimedia student activities, which are accessed through the Student Activities page. The Web-based activities for students are only one part of the curriculum unit. The Lesson Plans provide the framework for both the hands-on classroom activities and the Web-based multimedia activities that make up this curriculum supplement. Together, the classroom and multimedia activities enable students to gain a deeper understanding of the science behind this important topic, and how it relates to human health. Grade level: 8-College.
