Planning, Development, and Change in Bristol Bay: A High School Curriculum. Teacher Guide and Student Text. Unit III: 1991 and Beyond. Unit IV: International Perspective. Revised.
Lipka, Jerry; Willer, Cristy
Written with the broad goal of involving high school students in Bristol Bay, Alaska, in the planning and design of their region's future, this combined teacher guide and student text contains the third and fourth units of a seven-unit curriculum. Unit III covers the terms of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act and the complicated issues related to 1991 when shareholders will be free to sell stock in Native corporations. Unit IV, "International Perspective," helps students become aware that many of the issues facing them are being addressed by Native organizations and Native peoples around the world. Each unit states objectives, lists lessons in the unit, and specifies instructional materials needed. Each lesson (10 for Unit III and 3 for Unit IV) includes objectives for the learner and procedures for the teacher. Background reading material for students is provided from sources such as newsletters, editorials, news reports, and journal articles. Learning activities for students include participating in a youth conference where Native leaders discuss 1991 issues, role playing, researching 1991 issues, and formulating their own resolutions on 1991.
