Abstract: Our world has changed dramatically due to the COVID-19 pandemic, including making the instruction of viral life cycles, disease transmission, and health effects sensitive and even contested subjects. Whyville has its own virus lab where students create vaccines for Whyville diseases. Although aspects of these levels of epidemiology are sometimes explored in classrooms, such as the biology of disease or how diseases spread through populations, it is rare that students investigate all of them together. Lesson 3 promotes student inquiry into how viruses spread throughout communities by using Whyville's own infection simulator (see Figure 6). [Extracted from the article]
