The students began the day being taught by Christina about biomedical sciences. She explained exactly what they were going to cover today--some topics included the flu model and a diabetes model. After Christina finished, the class went outside to talk to Bob2 about their observation skills and to observe a few rope tricks. They then came inside after a brief discussion. Christina then explained to the students that there are different types of diabetes. Next she gave them a few guidelines to follow when they run the model. The students read the scenario and then they adjusted the model to reach an ideal dosage amount. The case study involved a pregnant woman, which made it more complex. Their goal was to get their model as close to Christina's as they could.

After break, Renee gave the students a brief lesson in STELLA, she taught them the tools that they would need for all of their models. She also informed them exactly what STELLA will do with the information that they give.
