Program Summary

The DLI secondary team in Utah has developed a Culture and Media course that is optional but that many schools are choosing to offer. This course emphasizes the use of media to expose 7th and 8th graders to themes that are different to the ones presented in their text book. Most of the time, these themes are based in current events and follow the AP topics that will be again be revisited by the same population in 9th grade.

This lesson will teach students about the history of Human Rights and allow them to learn more about the presence of human rights around the world and in their own community.

The intended level of this activity is Intermediate Mid/high, but can be adjusted to different proficiency levels.
