What educators are saying

I used this for a medical detectives elective and the students did a food toxin lesson. This was very helpful for them to understand and calculate attack rates. It definitely helped them before we did a lab and they were able to use the skills to determine which toxin infected certain people.
This was so fun to use during my summer school CSI class. There are a lot of things in this file so you can easily spend multiple days on it.
