Description

The "Outbreak!" project is designed to be taught over five days. After the introductory PowerPoint, students are given the attached worksheet (pg317). Each of the five days of the project are outlined below.

Day 1 - Introduction (click here to learn more)

Day 2 - Test Infected Patients (click here to learn more)

Day 3 - Examine DNA (click here to learn more)

Day 4 - Analyze Reproduction (click here to learn more)

Day 5 - Produce a Vaccine (click here to learn more)

*Looking back from the 2020s, the project seems like an overly-simplistic investigation of viruses and vaccines. We all know a lot more now, hopefully. But please keep in mind that this project was designed in 2016, and feel free to modify the project as needed!

NGSSMS-LS3-1
Develop and use a model to describe why structural changes to genes (mutations) located on chromosomes may affect proteins and may result in harmful, beneficial, or neutral effects to the structure and function of the organism. Emphasis is on conceptual understanding that changes in genetic material may result in making different proteins. Assessment does not include specific changes at the molecular level, mechanisms for protein synthesis, or specific types of mutations.
NGSSMS-LS3-2
Develop and use a model to describe why asexual reproduction results in offspring with identical genetic information and sexual reproduction results in offspring with genetic variation. Emphasis is on using models such as Punnett squares, diagrams, and simulations to describe the cause and effect relationship of gene transmission from parent(s) to offspring and resulting genetic variation.
