Take the Epidemic Challenge and engage your students in an inquiry-based, hands-on, interdisciplinary, real-world project.


-Made Possible by Eli Lilly and Company

 

What is the Epidemic Challenge?

Put your class to the test with the Epidemic Challenge! Through a series of videos, classroom activities and teacher-led discussions, your students will watch science come to life. Your students will be transformed into real-life medical detectives (aka epidemiologists) as they try
to solve the mysterious case of “The Amusement Park Outbreak.”
Middle school or high school students will race against time in a series of investigational activities. Their mission? They must determine the source of the identity and location of the pathogen before any more people get sick.
