Malaria Foundation International / Teaching Module
--------------------------------------------------
Dear Colleagues,
The website of the Malaria Foundation International (MFI)
<http://www.malaria.org> has recently acquired an interactive teach-
ing module created and generously shared with us by Dr. Donald Rob-
erts and Gregory Andre. This module provides, not only general ma-
laria information, but also information pertinent to malaria control
by use of DDT. It is designed to be useful to people with a wide
spectrum of backgrounds.
This instructive module is animated and interactive and addresses the
following:
1) The malaria parasite and the mosquito that passes it to humans;
2) When and how the infected mosquito comes in contact with humans;
3) DDT's effectiveness at malaria control (you may independently as-
sess the probability that DDT will reduce malaria transmission
based on 3 factors).
It may be viewed directly at:

Enjoy!
