Community Health ProjectStudents noticed that many of their friends have asthma. This prompted the Driving Question “How can we reduce youth asthma in our neighborhood?”
A physician came to talk about the causes of asthma, and students concentrated on pollution and second-hand smoke. Students looked for sources in their neighborhoods, and discussed ways to reduce them.
