Seldom linear A student driven process where they are the researchers and creators Authentic problems for investigation and inquiry Less about reaching solutions and more about tolerating ambiguity, wrestling with ideas and deepening understanding Supported, guided and facilitated by the teacher Inquiry, Learning, drama, and curriculum integration.

Given the right opportunity, tools and teacher guidance, students want an equal voice in directing their own learning. It is possible that the structure of school as we know it has underestimated students’ willingness to own more of their learning. (pg. 4) Who Owns the Learning?

Goal Stand up for what is right. Take action to make a difference to my own or others rights Role You are a rights advocate for….. Audience Define your audience according to your cause. Who needs to be made aware of this cause and your actions. Scenario You have identified an unjust and worrying infringement of rights and have ideas about how you might take responsibility to make a difference to change this situation. You feel strongly that other people need to be convinced to support your actions. Product Identify your strategies (actions), the tools you will use (including a range of social and visual media and personal action) and the most effective, relevant means of communicating your message and justify your choices and methods. Standard List strategies and tools. Select media, state how they will be used, reflect on the effectiveness of the media choices. Give two or more pieces of evidence to support my choice of cause. Identify two or more ways they made a difference. Seek feedback from others and plan for future action. Example

Unpacking a Unit: Turangawaewae
42
Unpack Enduring Understanding/Problem My daughter has not lived in NZ for 10 years. She has a family and they have lived in two countries since leaving NZ. She comes home once a year for Christmas for 2 weeks or less. I am concerned that she will lose her Turangawaewae and her children will not have any sense of belonging to New Zealand. How can we help her and her family? What perspectives will we need to consider?
