Case Study III: Common Source Outbreak of Waterborne Shigellosis at a Public School Case Study For Epidemiology 

question 1-10

Ray M.Merrill book

These case studies are interactive exercises developed to teach epidemiologic principles and practices. They are based on real-life outbreaks and public health problems and were developed in collaboration with the original investigators and experts from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The case studies require students to apply their epidemiologic knowledge and skills to problems confronted by public health practitioners at the local, state, and national level every day.

These Epidemiologic Case Studies are based on historical events and include epidemiologic methods that were practiced at the time. Given the historical nature of this content, the methods that are referenced on this site may be outdated practices in some settings. As some of the practices are still used, they continue to offer educational value.

Although designed to be a self-study, the web-based case study can be used in the classroom setting as a group exercise, homework, or test to reinforce concepts covered in class. The instructors guide Cdc-pdf[PDF – 913 KB] describes ways the case study may be used in the classroom setting, include resources available through the case study, and suggest topics for further discussions with students.

Although based on classroom case studies, the web-based version is more basic than classroom versions—and will emphasize different learning objectives.
