Law Related Education Curriculum.
Carey, John J.
Law related education learning modules and lesson plans are presented in this curriculum guide, which is designed to meet three broad goals: (1) to encourage good citizenship and respect for the law by teaching students how to effectively function within the law and to demonstrate and value lawful conduct; (2) to promote a better understanding for the law and the legal system; and (3) to identify and explain those areas of the law that affect the lives of Navajo students living in the "checkerboard" area of the Navajo Reservation. The 32 detailed lesson plans are organized into six chapters dealing with introduction to law, consumer law, individual rights, family law, student and school law, and criminal law. Each lesson begins with objectives for the learner, an opening question that introduces the topic of the lesson, background information for the teacher, suggested methods and materials, and a list of activities for extending the lesson. Topics of individual lessons include categories of law, collection agencies and debtor rights, Indian voting rights, marriage on the Navajo Reservation, school due process, and tribal jurisdiction over non-Indians. An annotated list of 21 recommended films and a bibliography of instructional materials are appended. (JHZ)
