Class experience
US Grade 6 - 9
This is a biology course aimed at teens who have a keen interest in the natural science and medicine. We will explore 5 different platyhelminth parasites that infect humans. A new parasite will be presented every week. Students will learn about many aspects of the organism's biology, such as its general appearance, life-cycle, how it affects its host and the disease it causes. Many parasites are very specialized and have complicated life-cycles that illustrate the complexity of nature....
After taking the course 'Medical Parasitology: 5 Trematodes and the Diseases They Cause!' learners will be able to explain in detail the biology and life history of the parasites they studied and will be familiar with the parasitic diseases they cause and how this impacts humanity.
