In-house HI Upper Sec (Library Venue)


Having shared this idea with the History Unit, that we should explore the possibility of creating an in-house museum, the question remained as to exactly how it could be done. 

The best way is to Do, Learn, Adapt and Improve. But first we must act. So, with our RT Louis, 20 sources were picked. I decided that we should have a spread of data, pictorial and textual sources. The impact of Stalin's rule would be most appropriate for our Sec 3 Express Starting Semester 2. 

The sources (10 in the library) and another 10 linked to online resources or books in MJR library will allow for student groups to do their HI in a self-directed way. 

This current use of the boards and QR codes can be further improved to raise collaboration and self-directed learning. The team will need to think further as to how the in-house museum concept can help develop Higher Order Thinking in source analysis. 

Teachers are to configure different questions , exercises and projects with these 20 sources. 

Let's continue to get post-experience feedback from students and teachers. 

Let's Do Learn Adapt and Improve.
