 * Concepts: (Bacterial and Viral Pathogens, Public Health, Teamwork)**
 * Characterize various pathogens by presenting a specific aspect of their pathogen to the class
 * Demonstrate knowledge of pathogen with proper communication skills
 * Collaborate cohesively with members of the group


 * Where can this PBL be used?**
 * Freshman Biology class
 * Modified for higher level biology (more difficult to identify pathogen)
 * Health class
 * Environmental Science class


 * Implementation strategies**
 * The ideal group size is 4 students, but a class as small as 18 could allot 2 jobs to each person (groups of 2)
 * This PBL would take roughly five 45 minute class periods (See Lesson plan and Unit Plan)
