About This Lesson
In this lesson, intended as part of a unit on the graphic-novel-as-memoir called Persepolis, students will be tasked with answering a basic premise: What is the nature of good and evil in humanity? To help them answer that question, and to help raise critical-thinking skills regarding this and other difficult subjects, this lesson will task students with conducting online research in a Blended Learning format; that is, one group of students will read an excerpt from a non-fiction text; another group will watch a video on a psychological experiment; while a third group will review a photographic essay. Further, this lesson, which offers Spanish-language translations of the material and attendant questions, is fully differentiated for all levels and types of learning.
