Following an introduction to human rights, students will consider how human rights relate to themselves, their community, country and their world.
Here teachers are going to find many activities to apply in the classroom.
This page is just aout huma rights, history, campaigns, documentaries, etc.
Equal rights to all the members of the world are the only means to bring social harmony in the world.Therefore,on December 10,1948,the United Nations adopted The Universal Declaration of Human Rights to protect human rights and to enforce it by laws.Here,you can find the that declaration and about the detail of human rights.
This bookmark is from the website called Human Rights Watch.
The education has been under attack in conflicts. The article says students, teachers and schools are often targeted and used as a war tactic because of their connection to education. The video is an example of those tragedies. A girl who just believed everybody has a right to access to education was shot. World organizations are providing information and trying to protect education.
I think this article can be used as an example of why preserving education is very important in some countries. Students can read and watch the video as an example, then teacher can ask them to find other articles on the website that are related to education as a human right.
The website where you can download free software consisting of 6 applications that allow you to to create interactive multiple-choice, short-answer, jumbled-sentence, crossword, matching/ordering and gap-fill exercises for the World Wide Web. Rather easy to master.
"Human Rights Watch defends the rights of people worldwide."
Students can investigate, on this site, about abuses happening worldwide and use the information for a debate in the classroom. They can also try to find a solution for a specific problem like they wold at the UN. Another idea would be to write reports or compare what's going on in a specific place around the world with their own reality.
This is one lesson of a whole collection that you can find on this website. I find this source quite interesting and diverse so I think that I as well as any other teacher of English from any place of the planet can use this material in designing their own lessons on human rights or use them as they are. Hope you will also find them useful.
Here you are finding over one hundred great ideas from teachers across the world. We could develop their critical and creative thinking.
So, let's try one!
It's a great page for young people to learn more about issues related to human rights that affect the world. I would use this web page for previous reading before a debate or a discussion.
The site gives a wonderful collection of songs which can be used at the English classes. Music usually helps to feel the problem, it touches our soul, it adds emotional perseption of the world. Tastes differ - this site gives the variety of music styles and everyone will find what will be closer to their heart.
