Social Injustice Project

Last year was my first year teaching.  In my English 2 class, my students did a Social Injustice group project.  They researched and explored about a type of injustice (gender, social class, race/ethnicity, etc.), and the students shared research with their group.  Then, they each did part of a group presentation: oral presentation, posterboard, pamphlet, or a letter to someone who can change the injustice. 

Today, I gained ideas to add multi-media options to this project.  I will now include options such as iMovie, podcasts, etc. for students to have as their project assessment.  I also learned about a website where they can search for ideas for more authentic service projects that will "match" their injustice.

  1. Would you share your resource for "I also learned about a website where they can search for ideas for more authentic service projects that will "match" their injustice." Sounds interesting! Thanks! Lisa N.
