Activity #9: Evaluating Clinical Trials

Today in class, students evaluated four different clinical trials. Each group member was in charge of reading one of the four studies. They read and record the important facts and information about the study. Then the group members shared their study with the rest of the class. By the end, students were informed about all four studies: Summer Fever Medicine, Burn Cream, Weight Loss Method, and Relaxin. Students then had to decide which study had the best elements of a well designed experiment and would recommend more research for that study.

Homework due today: Essay of Elements of a Well Designed Experiment
