Description
In my World Literature course, I have students complete a year long Cultural Studies project. They pick a country/region with which they are not familiar and research it to better understand a different perspective. They have to then write a ten page research paper focusing on aspects of what they have learned. I usually complete this paper with juniors and seniors, but it can completely be adapted for different age and grade levels; the ultimate message--of learning about perspectives other than their own--is good for any age.
Included in this package is:
1. Project Overview (instructions for students)
2. Informational Chart
3. Proposal Instructions
4. Workday Tracker
5. Current Events Tracker
