The Pack contains associated resources for the learning experience, typically in the form of articles and videos. There is a teacher Pack (with only teacher information) and a student Pack (which contains only student information). As a teacher, you can toggle between both to see everything.
Here are the teacher pack items for Global Health:
Overview In this experience, students brainstorm diseases that have changed the course of world history. Then they examine components of world health and focus on infectious disease (smallpox), indirect human health issues (avian flu), and environmental problems affecting global health (access to clean water). Next they describe international health organizations as examples of global cooperation. Finally, they create a primary source artifact about life during the COVID-19 pandemic. Objectives
Infectious diseases do not recognize national borders. A person carrying an infectious disease can board a plane on one continent and hours later land on another continent, spreading the disease. Mosquitoes and other migrating wildlife can spread disease across borders. Health officials cannot afford to ignore health issues in other nations. In this experience, you will learn why.
