Social Justice Research Project - Distance Learning
This research can be done at home or at school. It focuses on social justice issues so that students can find what they are passionate about and learn how to effectively inform or persuade others to care about it as well. I have included an "ideal" teaching guide as well as how I taught it during the hybrid model. This is the project and the rubric for the project.
