Users control the pace of instruction and decide when to skip a topic or slow down and work more carefully. ActivEpi contains many activities that allow the student to apply what they have learned to real data using Data Desk, and specially designed epidemiology templates. Each activity in ActivEpi presents a single concept or method, taking full advantage of the multimedia abilities of computers.

It can be purchased from local bookstores or directly from Springer. ActivEpi Author Wins National Teaching Award Dr. Kleinbaum has been recognized for his contributions to epidemiology education.
