After a discussion about the African diaspora, students will break into small group and read contemporary secondary sources about global migration, the African diaspora and economic development in Africa, and the Chinese government's response to the African diaspora during the coronavirus pandemic. Students will then share their findings with the class via a shared Google presentation. The learning objectives of this lesson are for students to explain contemporary geographic effects of migration, analyze relationships among and between places to reveal important spatial patterns, explain how government initiatives may affect economic development, and explain the causes and geographic consequences of recent economic changes, such as growing interdependence in the world economy.

So, today we’re talking about African Pantheons. Now, you might say, that’s ridiculous. Africa isn’t a single place with a single pantheon, and we’d be fools to try and cover all that in an eleven minute video. You’d be right.

We’re going to focus on a dozen or so.

The purpose of this lesson is to get students writing summaries that are concise.  They take a short story in a group of four and write 25-word abstracts that they then share.  As a group, they devise their own abstract, which is then shared with the rest of the class.  These are rated and students discuss which ones were better and why.
