Throughout the Grade 9 Year in Individuals & Societies we have been discussing many different countries around the world, the final Summative task for the Taiwan Case Study Unit was to create a journalistic article on any social, economic, political or cultural issue relating to their own country.
The choice of stories reflect different areas of student interests and concerns about sport, culture, politics, self-determination and the future economy of Taiwan, the place they call home.
The articles are presented in one of 4 different media formats: Print: Magazine / Print: Newspaper / Internet: Newspaper / Internet: Webzine
They were asked to express themselves openly and freely, using their democratic right to "freedom of speech".
It was a 10 week Unit of work with a research and development phase of 5 weeks and a Production and editing phase of 5 weeks.
They discussed the issues at length with each other and their teacher over that ten week period, and the training received has made them more adept at desktop publishing and graphic design.
