Zoo Class - ZSI

Zoo class - ZSI - Zoo Science Investigation

Here is the description the zoo provides on the class content:
How did a non-native animal contract a native disease? In this NEW problem-based scenario, students apply logic and scientific reasoning to solve the challenge of a medical mystery regarding zoo animals. Along the way, they’ll learn how science is applied to care for animals at the Zoo.



The day of our class was a very wet, raining day. We had to walk to several exhibits but thankfully the zoo had plastic ponchos for all of us to wear! I even wore one - no picture to share though! I was behind the camera (thankfully) and not in front of it. 


After our walk outside we went into the lab to diagnose / figure out the solution to our problem. A wonderful class!
