Sounding an Alarm on a Growing Epidemic | Blood Sugar Rising

In this short interactive lesson, designed as an activator activity, students grasp the severity and prevalence of diabetes, particularly for people of color. In the role of an epidemiologist, or public health detective, students watch videos that bring the issue into focus, analyze statistics, and propose questions whose answers may help reverse the trend.
