Teaching Materials
Positives
- Teachers are able to customize the lesson to suit their subject area by selecting which questions to use.
Additional Prerequisites
- All the lesson materials are available to download, but teachers must first create a free account with Project Look Sharp.
- Teachers should review the "How to Use Materials" section associated with this activity.
- For educators in faith-based schools, it is important to check the compatibility with values taught and upheld.
Differentiation
- This activity could be used to introduce a debate related to the 1968 declaration of the United Nations, that "parents have a basic human right to determine freely and responsibly the number and the spacing of their children."
- Educators can apply this in economics by evaluating the economic impact of population decreases and increases.
- Other similar resources include the videos How to Defuse the Overpopulation Bomb, Human Population Through Time, and How Empowering Women and Girls Can Help Stop Global Warming.
