Lesson Objective: (What will my students KNOW by the end of the lesson? What will they DO to learn it?)
Students will use a graphic organizer to identify in writing the pros/cons of globalization.
Students will identify and write the bias behind the article they read by researching the author.
Additionally, students will cite textual evidence verbally in a debate setting to support the position of which they have been
assigned.
Lastly, Students will formulate their own opinions based on the provided articles, the debate, and prior knowledge and experiences
through a short answer reflection.
Context of Lesson (what happened previous to lesson and how does this lesson build on that)
Relevant to this lesson is the greater unit Geography of Globalization. Students have previously discussed geographies of identity and culture and
now we will be looking beyond individuals and into the geographic interconnections of individuals on a global level. Students will have
constructed their own working definition of globalization based on a photo analysis. This definition will be refined throughout the unit.
