Teaching Shocking Topics Without Shocking Students

Speaker: Small, John

Saturday
10:45 AM - 11:40 AM
How would students react if a teacher covered topics such as child prostitution, factory slaves, and female genital mutilation? How could those topics be taught? Survey results of two years of teaching those topics will be presented, as well as the methodology that made those topics accessible to students.
