Overview
Students learn about computer viruses and other forms of malware. They begin by relating computer viruses to biological viruses. Students break into teams to investigate 1 type of malware. They use information gleaned from a video and an article to prepare a computer health advisory poster, which they display for the group. To wrap up the activity, students take turns presenting and answering questions about their posters.
