Politics are all around us, and it is important to be able to discuss them. The goal of this class is to help students develop opinions based on original source material and learn to discuss them in a respectful and mature way. Students will learn through reading primary source documents and discussing them as a group. Towards the end of class, students will synthesize their thoughts into a written argumentative essay. In this class, students will read the philosophy of different political...
Students will read and respond to primary source documents. Students will lead discussion about political theory with respect for different opinions and interpretations. Students will find similarities and differences in different political beliefs. Students will refine their beliefs through oral and written communication.
I have a Master's Degree in Adolescent Social Studies Education, which specifically trained me to teach teenagers to discuss difficult topics based on primary source documents. While in graduate school, I studied political thought from the Enlightenment through the 20th century. This class is structured like a "lite" version of a university seminar, which I have extensive experience with. Many of my classes currently offered are discussion based. In this class, students will be almost entirely responsible for the discussion, with myself acting as a mediator. I have experience teaching about political topics to both teenagers on Outschool and in person, and to adults at community centers.

Each week, students will read an excerpt of a primary source document (400-800 words) and write a 3-5 sentence reaction to it. At the end of class, students will write an outline for an essay. Students will submit a 5 paragraph argumentative essay by the last day of class and give a brief presentation.수업 외 주당 1 - 2 시간

Students will receive detailed feedback on their final essays, as well as to their weekly responses.제공되는 성적
Students will receive a 16-page Google Document with all the readings required for class, a syllabus, a guided reading sheet, and an essay outline. Students may want to print out the 16-page google doc and guided reading sheet, but don't have to. Students may want to take notes either on paper or digitally. There is a guided discussion sheet that students can use to prepare for their presentation week. Please note that the documents are written out rather than scanned from books. This is so students with learning differences can, for example, change the font to be very big, or use text-to-speech technology.
Students will read about political philosophies that many consider to be "fringe" such as communism, anarchism, and libertarianism. We will also discuss colonialism. Students will be encouraged to build their own opinions while maintaining respect for others, particularly respect towards marginalized groups. No political ideology will be promoted during this class.
