Lesson Plans | Amnesty International USA - 4 views

  •  
    Amnesty International is a global movement of people fighting injustice and promoting human rights (http://www.amnestyusa.org/our-work). This website offers lesson plans that have been carefully planned by professionals. It also offers Film Curriculum Guides and Teaching Guides for Educators.
  •  
    There seems to be a wide variety of lesson plans on many issues dealing with human rights and for many different levels of students. I don't know whether these lesson plans could be used as presented, but they appear to provide at least a blueprint for a lesson plan. I also like the references given in the lesson plan, and the plans are easily downloaded.

    I had a look at this site after seeing it recommended here on Diigo (thanks!) and it seems to have a lot of potential.  I agree with Richard that teachers would probably need to adapt some of the activities. There are some nice materials though and the 'Rights & Responsibilities' and 'The Right to an Education' are a nice lead-in to the topic of human right as they use the familiar topic of school to get students thinking.

Teaching Human Rights in Ontario - 0 views

  •  
    A critical participant in the effort to combat prejudice and discrimination in society is its educational institutions; not only because the attitudes and values to which young people are exposed in school influence their future conduct, but also because, although it is the implicit right of citizens to act upon their "rights," they must know what those rights are before they will be able to do so.

Rights for all Global education - 0 views

  •  
    My topic is Violation of Human Rights in Peru (1980-2000). I found this lesson plan from a project in Austrailia. I would change this lesson plan slightly. Instead of people in" another country" I would ask my students instead to talk about Peruvian Andean people.

    These are organized lesson plans for teaching human rights, once again aimed to be used in classroom usage. I have read most of the activities and I found that there are plenty of good examples, disscussions and group work activities that could be implemented without big efforts.

Active classroom management - 0 views

  •  
    An uncomfortable issue nowadays is student's disruptions during the period of class. This takes place for several reasosns. But the main one is when students do not have motivation according to their interests; something to keep them awake and active in class. The site above will give you a chance to have better perspectives in acting.
