The Black Death Epidemic

Students will research the history of the Black Death and learn about the causative pathogen involved through a POGIL activity. There will be suggested web-links for the students to research what is currently known about the disease and questions for them to answer as a teaching method and evaluation. As a final assessment, the students will construct an epidemiological triangle in pairs and then share with the class.
