Students have been assigned an ongoing task of seeking connections to worldview and current events.    this task will continue until the end of the year.  This task addresses the following curricular outcome:

Students will appreciate how a society’s worldview influences the society’s choices, decisions and interactions with other societies.

Students have selected small groups.  On Fridays, one person from each group has been assigned to bring in a current event with a summary and a reflection about how that current event connects to worldview.  Students will discuss the event and build on each others ideas.  The person responsible for the current event will then write a reflection on how the discussion has changed his or her thinking.  This, along with the summary, will be handed in on the following Monday.

The task and the rubric have been posted in D2L on the 8-02 Core Subjects shell.  To find it, scroll to the bottom of the content browser.  You should see the current events module listed there.  Students are encouraged to use the rubric to support them in developing their responses.
