Accomplishments
Devised several activities (monthly dinners, Tuesday sociological discussions, field trips that students organized, symbosia, etc.) that led to actively questioning subject matter and linking their questions, ideas, conclusion to real-world social problems. They became active rather than passive learners.
Taught students how to assess social problems statements made by local, state, and national politicians to ascertain whether these statements were sound and the problems could be solved as stated. The most interesting result was that students acquired an expertise in describing and suggesting solutions that was more credible that elected leaders.
