Does any one know about how to present current events material

Posted on April 3, 2009 at 4:57pm 3 Comments

I am doing 2 lectures & having students do some kind of activity about current events. I was thinking about talking about soverignty & failed states, different players in international relations, organization they should know about and then having them do and activity with specific newspaper articles. Having them get into smaller groups with common themes, answers some questions, & tell the class about what they learned.

Anyone have suggestions?

Glad to help, Songs are excellent resources for examining past and current events. Also great for learning about bias, point of view, and media literacy skills in general.
