TEACHING OPTIONS
There may currently be an issue of importance to your community on which there is a difference
of opinion. An example might be the imposition of a curfew on youths under 16 years of age.
Ask students to consider the positions of different groups, such as youths, adults, local business
people, and police. Then have groups of students representing each point of view create an ad
that is designed to shape public opinion and/or affect its behavior. As a class, compare the ads,
using the questions in the Analysis Chart.
