The Progress Dilemma expedition leads students to study numerous case studies and define what progress is according to their own perspective. Using our anchor text, //Ishmael// by Daniel Quinn, students are investigating the differences between //Leaver// and //Taker// societies throughout our world. They will measure and analyze progress made by different movements throughout history, including the 2nd Industrial Revolution & globalization. In addition, students are investigating current energy use compared to clean energy alternatives through the lens of progress. In the end, students will synthesize the positive and negative consequences of the progress made over the past few centuries and decipher whether progress is the same for everyone. Ultimately, students will analyze their personal progress and gauge where they have grown and what areas they can improve in as students and members of our community.
