Provide a metaview, lifting students into a wider view of the concept. Use another medium (not reading or writing) to connect students' personal knowing to the concept (i.e. visual arts, music, movement, metaphor, etc.) Involve learners in reflective production that blends the emotional and the cognitive.

Share examples of music, art, etc.

Objective: To have the students identify examples of isolationism and conflict in other media.

Activity: Students bring in video clips, poems, pictures, or songs about conflict or isolationism.

Assessment: Students' examples and enjoyment in sharing and explaining their selections.
