We discuss three acellular infectious agents in this module – viruses, prions and viroids. Infection by any one of these can have serious consequences to human health and/or economic wellbeing. In the event of an outbreak, it is important to be able to identify and contain these pathogens to avoid potentially deadly outbreaks. Your assignment is to choose one of the three infectious agents and consider the epidemiological features of your selection. By epidemiological features we mean: Can you characterize the causative organism? Where does the disease come from? Who is affected? How do they acquire the pathogen? What are the symptoms and risk factors? How is the disease dealt with once it is discovered in order to prevent its spread? You can choose one pathogen based on the general scenario described below.

For this assignment you now work for the United States Department of Agriculture’s Agriculture Research Service. You have been assigned to characterize a new epidemic that has spread rapidly at a farm in Montana. You arrive at the farm observe the livestock, crops and farm workers for signs of illness. You sample the fluids and tissue of several affected organisms and bring them to a state-of-the-art USDA laboratory for analysis. The outbreak is fictional but all the information – from the organism, to how it is acquired, to the symptoms it causes – should be legitimate for the infectious agent. I have intentionally left out these and other details in the scenario. You will fill in the details in your essay by addressing the following questions.

What is the affected organism (animal/plant/human or any combination)?

What are the symptoms exhibited by the affected organism(s)?

What is the pathogen that you have identified after analysis of the infected material?

How where you able to identify the agent in a laboratory?

Describe the etiology. How did the infection make its way to the farm?

Trace the fictional outbreak from its origins either locally, nationally or internationally.

Knowing how the infectious agent is disseminated, what recommendations do you make to the farm manager for containment and treatment of infected organisms?

Please visit the Excelsior Library to find at least 3 suitable citations to support the information you provide as you portray this outbreak.

Your essay should be 2-3 pages in length, double spaced in a 10-12 point font. Please be sure to cite all sources of information, including the text book, in the essay text and on a reference page using APA format. When you have finished your essay, attach it to the assignment drop box and submit it to your instructor.

Create a science lesson plan that involves insects. Use the 5E model from thepresentations and readings. You may come up with an original lesson plan or modify anexisting lesson plan, as long as it is not already in the format of the 5E model. If you usean existing lesson plan, paraphrase appropriately and acknowledge the source.

Title

Your title should summarize the lesson. Be mindful of the grade level! It’s okay to be clever with the title, but be sure your title makes sense.

Objectives

Your lesson plan should focus on two or three learning objectives. Your learning objectives should describe what you want the students to know or be able to do when they complete your lesson. Be sure to follow the guidelines in the presentation on writing effective learning objectives!

Advanced Preparation

Provide a detailed explanation of the science content being developed in the lesson. Here, you as a teacher should demonstrate your understanding of the science being taught in the lesson. Assume the reader does not have this background knowledge.

Additionally, a teacher may have to prepare materials before the start of your lesson. In this section, please describe what the teacher needs to do before students arrive. If there are handouts, they need to be referenced in this section.

Engage

What will you do to captivate student attention?

How will the activity help students identify their misconceptions?

How will you connect to students’ everyday lives?

What questions will you ask students?
(Provide sample answers you expect from students.)

Explore

How will you transition from the engagement to the exploration?

What common, cooperative experience will you provide for students?

How will you help students generate their own questions about the experience?

Will the students collect data? If so, what data will they collect?

What questions will you ask the students? (Provide sample answers.)

Explain

What guiding questions will you ask? (Provide sample answers.)

What ideas will you be trying to develop?

How might you act out or demonstrate the ideas you’re developing?

What opportunities will you provide for students to articulate their ideas and listen to each other?

What terminology will you introduce, and how will you clarify what students articulate?

Elaborate

What will students do during this phase?

What concepts will you be having them apply, in what kind of activity?

Will you ask students to relate previous experiences to current activities?

What guiding questions will you ask? (Provide sample answers.)

Evaluate

What formative assessments will you use, and when in the lesson will you use them?

What specifically will you be looking for in these?

What summative assessment will you use?

What specifically will you be looking for in this?
