Movies for Learning: Contagion

Contagion 

Using the movie Contagion was a great way to explore science topics related to pandemics. This movie helped us to understand how pandemics can spread and how societies might treat and try to contain the virus'. It was an interesting exploration of this area of science. We also took a look at world population, politics and the challenges behind creating and distributing cures. Looking at how anarchy can quickly ensue during a disaster was also part of our discussions.

This was a great movie for combining so many elements of learning!

I used this movie with students long before the Covid19 virus pandemic. It is timely now! 
Here are the questions for Contagion.
