Analyzing Epidemics' Impact on Society

Bookmark and Share

Students research various epidemics that have devastated the world population at different points in history, focusing on the historical events taking place during the times of the epidemics and the epidemics’ effects on these societies. Each student then imagines that he or she is living during the time of the outbreak of the epidemic researched in class and writes diary entries discussing how the epidemic is affecting his or her life and various aspects of society.
