Title: The Hot Tub Mystery
Url: https://www.nsta.org/ncss-case-study/hot-tub-mystery
Creator: House, Herbert
Publisher: National Center for Case Study Teaching in Science
Description: This case study sets up a mystery and asks students to solve it using science: why was the couple found dead in their hot tub? The material asks students to connect seemingly unrelated factors, such as blood pressure, hot water and alcohol. The material would be most appropriate for lower level undergraduate students. The case study and teaching notes may be downloaded in PDF format. The site also includes a section for instructor feedback where general comments may be read and contributed.
