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.
Music and Analogs
Objective: To integrate experience of man's inhumanity to man.
Activity: Play discordant music (Stravinsky works well) while students draw two analogs, one of compassion and one of inhumanity. Post on bulletin board.
