One culminating activity that aligns with the Ontario curriculum for World Issues in grade 12 is a research project on a global issue of the student’s choice. This project should have two check-ins, one midway through the research process and one before the final presentation. The project should be open-ended, allowing students to choose a topic that interests them and conduct in-depth research on the issue.
To make the project engaging, students can be encouraged to use a variety of sources, including primary sources such as interviews with experts or individuals affected by the issue. They can also be encouraged to think critically about the issue and consider different perspectives and potential solutions.
The final presentation can take various forms, such as a research paper, a multimedia presentation, or a debate. Students can present their findings and recommendations to the class, and the class can engage in a discussion about the issue and potential solutions.
This project can take 5-10 classes, depending on the amount of time given for research and presentation preparation. It aligns with the Ontario curriculum’s emphasis on critical thinking, research skills, and global citizenship.
