Flow chart for classroom-based module “Zebrafish as Models: Studying the Effects of Environmental Agents on Human Health” described in Tomasiewicz et al.2 This figure illustrates the processes used in the zebrafish module. On Day 1, embryos are harvested in the laboratory at UWM or in the classroom if the teacher has a successful breeding group, transferred to a well plate, and exposed to the toxicant. Each day the embryos are observed under the microscope, and the media changed. UWM, University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
