Encourage tinkering with ideas, relationships, connections. Set up situations where students have to find information not readily available in school texts. Provide opportunity for students to design open-ended explorations of the concept. Provide multiple options so students can plan a unique "proof" of learning.

Drama Creation

Objective: Students will apply ideas from learned concepts.
Activity: Students work in groups to plan a play that shows some form of discrimination. At the end of the play at least one person must show acceptance and no longer discriminate. The reason for this change must also be apparent. Scenery can be created and costumes may be worn.
Evaluation: Quality of plan for play.
