Zoo Education Online. Mapping journeys of inquiry through the year: emergent, flexible and connected. — Kath Murdoch. I was recently rummaging through some old papers and came across a program I had helped a school create many (MANY) years ago.

Inevitably, these units would be tackled term by term – beginning as the term started and ending before the term break. It was a neat, organised, detailed, safe, dependable two-year cycle of…. topics. Project, Problem, and Passion-Based Learning (PBL) Resources. Global Youth Perspectives.

Interested in knowing a bit more about international Human Rights Law?
In the past decades, the general principles enunciated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights have given life to a body of law: international human right law. Among the key documents that expand on the UN UDHR are the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which, together with the UDHR, form the so-called “International Bill of rights.” Take a look at the ‘core’ human rights instruments and at the UN bodies set up to protect human rights and monitor their implementation. Outside the United Nations, regional-based human rights documents also emerged across the world, such as the European Convention on Human Rights, the American Convention on Human Rights; and the African Union Charter of Human and People's Rights.

Both he and his colleague Jay McTighe did so much to bring an awareness of how to create meaningful essential questions in education. They knew, as we do now, that the questions we ask our students matter. In our EQ Guide, we define an essential question as one that leads us to explore the problem and choose from plans and strategies to generate an applicable solution.
