I really appreciate how you walked us through the redesign of this learning experience and shared students' reaction to it. It sounds like you had a lot more engagement and critical thinking happening once students had more opportunities to research and creatively express their findings.

Christianity Denominations Infographic - Human Geography
Original Plan/Lesson:
- My original plan for my Human Geography freshmen in our World Religions unit was to have them research and write about the many denominations of Christianity.
What I Changed:
- Turned my written activity to a project where students tell a story about a given denomination
- Brought in local histories and cultures by encouraging students to research local churches
- Encouraged students to research and capture data of where each denomination is practiced globally
Impact:
- Students were more engaged and active in their assessment
- Students could better customize their final product
- Allowed students to show their understanding in a more creative way that reaches multiple learning styles

Did you provide the students with any resources to conduct their research?
