This tenth grade lesson plan asks student teams to research and analyze the history, the challenges, and the future of contemporary nations and share their discoveries in a poster presentation at a technology pavilion. The lesson plan states that each team, as a participating nation, is required to include three themes in their countries' pavilion or roster: Honor the Past; Discover the Challenges; and Imagine the Future. It gives a six step, detailed process for implementing the task: (1) "Group Organization"; (2) "Researching the History"; (3) "Group Report"; (4) "More Research and Primary Source Contacts"; (5) "Second Team Meeting and Action Plan"; and (6) "Prepare Presentation." A student guide and a teacher guide are included in the lesson plan. (BT)
