NOVA: Poisoned Water Video Questions

- Zip (4 pages)

Description
In 2014, the city of Flint, Michigan changed the source of its drinking water. The ramifications of this decision continue to this day.
Thousands of residents were exposed to lead-contaminated drinking water. The people in charge at the State and Federal level denied that a problem existed. It took the heroic efforts of Flint residents, physicians, and Prof. Marc Edwards of Virginia Tech University to bring the problem to light.
NOVA: Poisoned Water is a disturbing and high-interest video that documents Flint's lead-tainted water. It is a story of criminal negligence, obfuscation, and the elevation of money over human life and dignity.
The zip file download contains a two-sided video worksheet consisting of 45 multiple choice question, along with an answer key. Files are provided in both PDF and MS Word format. You will need to obtain a DVD of the video, or use the PBS Internet site. The video is also available on Amazon streaming. I have also included a QTI file of the worksheet questions that can be imported into an LMS such as Canvas (which can be ideal for distance learning).
A Google Forms self-grading quiz for this worksheet is available here.
