Detectives in the Classroom Investigation 1-3: What's My Hypothesis?
Read the Fine Print
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students investigate epidemics and the spread of disease. Each student is assigned an exposure and, assuming the exposure causes a disease, writes a decription of how a hypothetical disease would be distributed in terms of person, place, and time. Students then review each other's descriptions and formulate one or more hypotheses for each. When students compare their hypotheses, they realize that a given distribution of a health-related outcome can lead to the formulation of several different educated guesses.
