Grade 10: During the two-trimester long course for Grade 10, students select a global issue and are assigned a country. (There are 16 global issues that are assigned; students are given different countries--no one student has the same country AND issue.) During T1 students research the issue during the 20th Century, focusing on the historical background of the issue in the context of the country and the major themes of the course. During T2 students collaborate with students in other sections; the project culminates in a project.
