Talking about controversial issues such as bias, stereotyping and
racism is critical to helping learners make sense of the world.
Teaching controversial issues is a activity-based resource that
raises a range of debates and provides teachers with the tools to
develop critical thinking in their learners. It helps learners to
understand concepts of race, class, identity, justice, conflict and
power relations. Teaching controversial issues tackles
controversial topics such as - Why are people racist? Are boys
better at technical and science subjects? Was Jan van Riebeeck a
hero or villain? Does "overpopulation" cause poverty and
unemployment? What is democracy? Teaching controversial issues has
illustrated classroom activities, as well as activities for teacher
development and includes photocopiable worksheets to accompany
these activities. It is useful for school managers, teacher
educators as well as classroom teachers, especially those who teach
Social Sciences in the Senior Phase.
