| | Synopsis
|
"In recent years, technology has impacted every aspect of our lives
from the way we work to how we socialize to how we consume media. How
has digital technology helped and hurt society? Each book in ISSUES 21
is built upon an inquiry framework with three main components: an
essential question; a sequence of instruction that provides modeling,
mentoring, and monitoring; and a culminating writing activity.
Students are introduced to the topic via an open-ended inquiry
question. The necessary material that presents students with a
starting reference point is then front-loaded before they are
challenged to investigate, analyze, and demonstrate knowledge
of the underlying concepts of real world issues through research
assignments, persuasive essays, argumentative writing, and debates.
Specifically, through guided questioning, each ISSUES 21 book helps
students: Connect ideas within a selection, Connect personal
experience with the selection, Connect ideas from one unit to another,
Connect ideas from the text to the world at large" From publisher's
website.
