Teaching format tip
Article
Structure engagement around personal connection and critical reflection. Students should process challenging ideas while relating content to their own experiences and developing perspectives. Use articles to stimulate thinking and encourage deeper engagement with complex topics.
Infographics
Teach students to deconstruct visual arguments by identifying how design choices influence perception. Students should evaluate information hierarchy, data accuracy, and potential bias in representation. Use infographics as models for synthesizing complex information into accessible formats. Challenge students to verify sources and consider what information might be missing or oversimplified.
