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

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.

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