This year in my tenth grade Global Studies, we will be publishing an e-magazine called the World Wide Walkers every two weeks. My class is operating as an independent publishing company, in which the students will be paid in grades and have to work as a team to meet publishing deadlines.
While watching, the students took copious notes to determine which parts of the story they would like to investigate further. We held a boardroom meeting after the film to discuss ideas and brainstorm potential projects for issue #1. The students then narrowed their choices down to a single research question and got to work.
After spending two weeks researching, interviewing, creating, and learning new programs, we are happy to share with you the World Wide Walkers debut issue, appropriately titled Beginnings. You can also click on individual submissions through any of the links below:
