| Description | (April 2009) This unit on the Russian Revolution is popular with many students, who often enjoy the content material that relates to the Royal Family and Rasputin. However, there needs to be a focus on the concept of revolution and how the establishment of a communist state influenced global history, including New Zealand.... At the moment we also teach another revolution, the French Revolution, and we make connections in class between the two, looking for common features in revolutions. However, we are not really giving students the chance to transfer knowledge from one context to another. There is an advantage in using a thematic approach because it is the ideal situation to transfer between contexts. Authors: Carol Jarman and Maria Jefferson |
