A little more work...

Today in class I got some more work done. I began to really think about the interview that I am going to have to do. What questions would I really need to ask? What questions will relate to my project? I got a few questions that I would like to ask the Epidemiologist before I started working on something else. The questions are:

1. How did you get interested in Epidemiology?
   How big was the field when you began?
   Has it grown over the years or remained the same?
   At what age do you think most people learn or start becoming interested in epidemiology?


2. Do you think it's important for students to learn about Epidemiology at a young age?
   When do you think students should be introduced to Epidemiology?
   Our school has a 13 week long epidemiology program where students have the opportunity to learn and actually "be" epidemiologists. What are your thoughts on this?

After figuring out some questions I began working on finding websites. My project deals with teaching 10th graders about Epidemiology so I am going to need to find websites about 1) Epidemiology... 2) Teaching... and 3) Epidemiology simulations for students. The few sites that I found today are:

• Http://en.wikipdia.org/wiki/Epidemiology
• Http://ccnmtl.columbia.edu/projects/epiville/
• Http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/156/2/190
• Http://www.collegeboard.com/yes/ft/iu/units.html
• http://www.cdc.gov/

Thats all the work that I got done for today. More to come soon...
