About This Lesson
Dear Student@Home!~
Hi from MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA! We have a unique project for you to do over the next week. It builds from the MIT BLOSSOMS video lesson, “Flu Math Games.” This BLOSSOMS lesson was created in August 2009, as a way to educate high school students on the then-current world-wide respiratory disease pandemic, the H1N1 influenza. We wanted the students who experienced this lesson to return home and educate their siblings and parents. That is our goal now, 11 years later, with the next respiratory disease pandemic, the Coronavirus, technically called COVID-19. It turns out that the fundamental math modeling of the flu and COVID-19 are the same. So, we can use the flu math modeling video for a COVID-19 math modeling video!
