Methodology Check-In

Our Alternative School moment hopes to teach our students about different cultures, civilization and modern nations from around the world. The teaching will be done by pamphlets distributed to people at Times Square 42nd Street. We have chosen this place for its popularity among tourists who come from all over the world and across the country. This ASM will take place between the hours of 1-2 PM because this is the time we expect this area to be most crowded; increasing our possibility of a more diverse sample of students. The materials and supplies needed prior  to the ASM would be a computer and a printer along with matching colored shirts to be able to find each other.

Objective – Teach our students interesting facts and information to give them a greater unbiased perspective about the world they live in

Actionable steps to complete our Objective

  1. Explore the internet for  interesting facts (including statistics, cultural traditions, current events etc) from around the world. This will be done by each group member and  he/she must find two facts that interest them. Only one person would be allowed to look up facts pertaining to the US.

2.   After those two facts are found by each member, he/she will do research on the two facts found and be able to find relevant information supporting their findings. Once this task is complete, each member should be able to explain their facts.

3. All members will share the facts they have found with others and explain where they received there facts from and why it was interesting to them. They will also share the links to where the information was found so other members can find the source.

4. Members will read the sources of the facts they found interesting from other members. This will give the members the ability to be ready to answer any questions if a student asks them.

5. Once all members have a strong understanding of the facts and information chosen, members must unanimously agree and  choose 10 out of the 20 facts to put on the pamphlet.

6.  Member Jessica Lin will type the 10 facts onto a pamphlet template along with a QR code for each fact. This will allow the students to look up the articles for themselves.

7. Members Alana, Anntia, Jenny and Robert will design the pamphlets each with their own unique style and artistic ideas.

8. Once step 7 is done, each member must print 50 copies of pamphlets from any of the three that were created.

9. At this point, all members should once again study and try to get comfortable being able to explain the facts more in-depth with students if necessary.

10.  All members will travel and meet up at Times Square 42nd Street prior to starting the ASM to set up establish a perimeter.

10. All members will hand-out pamphlets to people who seem of ages 15 and above. We do this to ensure the student is old enough to be able to  at comprehend the reading.

11. As they hand-out the pamphlets, all members will say to the students “strive for an unbiased education.”

One thought on “Methodology Check-In”

  1. I like how detailed you are with your steps. This methodology check in is good. I still however have all my previous concerns about your “What and Why” as I did when I commented on your previous check in.
