=THE IDEA-NOUN COLLABORATIVE UNIT=

Big ideas force us to think about ourselves in various situations and circumstances. Over the course of this semester, students will be asked to engage in a research process to create their own definition of an idea-noun (war, freedom, genocide, slavery, etc.). They will be asked to compile current events and past history to create a presentation of their own definition and discuss the implications for their world today.
 * The Basics **

The student will search for, weed through, and compile print, digital, and media materials to answer their own personal idea-noun definition. The student will locate collections and resources that will be helpful to their personal search process. The student will begin to apply criteria to select the best resources to answer the search question.
