We have a brand new Participation in Government teacher who is trying to
develop his curriculum.  He is trying to engage somewhat reluctant
students into discussion, debate, etc. without what we would call
overwhelming success.  Question: do you have a set curriculum you would be
willing to share (the state doesn't help much here) or projects that have
been successful in your school.  Obviously he is spending a good deal of
time on the elections, but needs to really get on track.  He is using the
Newsweek in the classroom program.  We could use some fresh ideas that
distinguish this class from the kinds of subjects the students concentrate
on in 11th grade. Am Hist&Gov't.
Thanks bunches.
