      Look at the names in Things Fall Apart.  
  • Now divide the class into groups of four, and have each group select an African nation to investigate. Explain that each group will be creating a poster on its country. The poster should be divided into four sections, with a small map of the country (with the capital labeled) in the center. The group will be responsible for creating the map, but each member of the group will provide information for each of the four sections: Name origin and information Colonization information Current data and statistics Significant historical events

  • Each student should research the information for his or her section and complete the poster. Use the evaluation rubric to clarify your expectations before the students begin working.
  • Discuss and define some of the factors involved in colonization. Why do people colonize other places? 2. Throughout history, colonization has had both positive and negative effects. Consider and discuss these in light of the countries you have studied.
  • What are some of the problems that could arise for a country after it achieves independence? What are some of the consequences and responsibilities resulting from independence?
  • What should the role of the United Nations be in supporting and including nations that have achieved independence in the latter part of the 20th century? 7. Compare colonization in Africa with colonization in other parts of the world.
  • Spotlight on Africa Have students imagine they are producers for a news show called This Week in Africa . Ask the students to follow news about Africa for one week and develop a 30-second spot of about 60 to 75 words. Have them "present" their spots to the class. Africa Online provides an effective daily resource for this information (see Internet sites under Materials). After their presentations, categorize major news stories according to whether they show positive or negative aspects of the influence of the nations' colonial pasts.

  • The school’s success suggests that perhaps certain instructional fundamentals—fundamentals that schools have devalued or forgotten—need to be rediscovered, updated, and reintroduced. And if that can be done correctly, traditional instruction delivered by the teachers already in classrooms may turn out to be the most powerful lever we have for improving school performance after all.
