Internet Activities Unit 3: Dying for Their Beliefs
Part One
Search the Web to learn about illnesses.
Go to one of the websites shown below; find the names of three illnesses
and describe them. Tell what the causes are (if the causes are known). Explain
how each illness is treated by traditional medicine. If there are any alternative
treatments, explain those as well.
From the three illnesses you found, choose one illness that can be treated
with alternative medicine. Write a one-page opinion essay explaining why
you would or would not consider alternative treatment if you had this illness.
