Only Sharing Permitted
CC BY-NC-ND
Rating
0.0 stars

"The Right Question Institute’s “Why Vote?” Tool is used to foster a strong sense of urgency to vote. Voting is framed as a self-advocacy role students can and will want to play. Whether students can or cannot yet vote, they will:

Understand the connection between specific public services they rely on or issues they care about and the role of elected officials
Name for themselves the importance of voting
Ask questions using the Question Formulation Technique (QFT)
Explore ways (in addition to voting) that people can take action and advocate for public services they rely on or issues they care about
This lesson plan is designed to bring elements of the ‘Why Vote’ Tool into the classroom and can be used in remote, hybrid, or fully in person settings."

Learning how to communicate about such topics as white privilege, police violence, economic inequality and mass incarceration requires practice, and facilitating critical conversations with students demands courage and skill.

Legal Behavior Versus Ethical Behavior
Rating
0.0 stars

This website is perfect for teaching the difference between legal and ethical behaviors. First, the website provides a brief description about the difference between legal and ethical behaviors. The rest of the website provides interactive activities for students to become familiar with the content. I would recommend just the two exercises titled “the difference” and “legal or ethical” since those are most related to our topic. Students can complete these exercises individually, and then as a collaborative activity, students can discuss their answers with a partner. The goal of this activity is for students to be able to distinguish between legal behavior and ethical behavior, provide examples of the two, and explain the differences.

This lesson is designed to help students develop strategies for solving optimization problems. Such problems typically involve using limited resources to greatest effect, as in, for example, the allocation of time and materials to maximize profit.
Before the lesson, students attempt the problem individually. You then review their work and formulate questions for students to answer in order to improve their solutions.At the start of the lesson, students work alone answering your questions.Students are then grouped and engage in a collaborative discussion of the same task. In the same small groups, students are given sample solutions to comment on and evaluate.In a whole-class discussion, students explain and compare solution strategies seen and used.Finally, students revise their individual solutions and comment on what they have learned.
Materials required
Each individual student will need a copy of the  task, some plain paper, a calculator, and a copy of the How Did You Work? questionnaire.Each small group of students will need copies of the Sample Responses to Discuss.Graph paper should be kept in reserve and used only when necessary or requested.
Time needed
Approximately 15 minutes before the lesson, a 1-hour lesson, and 10 minutes in a follow-up lesson.
