The Buses Are Coming (Pt 2 of 4): Experiencing the Bus
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

In this lesson, students will use the CocoCast app to learn civics and social studies. These lessons are inspired by the San Diego Museum of African American Art’s 3-D exhibit titled “The Buses Are Coming” of August 2022. The lessons in this series will leverage augmented reality (AR) and use CocoCast, an app created by Three Space Lab to be used on the iPad, to allow learners to examine an artifact that would be otherwise inaccessible. The choice to employ AR will allow learners to experience the complexity of the emotions surrounding the bombing of the Freedom Ride bus in Anniston, Georgia. The lesson supports the development of oracy and literacy skills as students learn to evaluate historical events. NOTE: This lesson is part two of a four lesson sequence.
In Segment 2, learners will interact with the 3D model of the burning bus using CocoCast.

Estimated time required: 1 class period.

Technology required for this lesson: Augmented Reality, Internet Connectivity, Laptop/Desktop, Tablet or Smartphone.

Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Cards, Cars and Currency is a curriculum unit that challenges students to become involved in three specific areas of personal finance: credit cards, debit cards and purchasing a car.

The unit is divided into five lesson plans. The activities in each lesson plan are designed to address problem-solving, critical-thinking and higher levels of learning, using real-world scenarios. With a focus on responsibility for personal financial decisions, students will be able to identify the bottom line of financial decision making: income kept or lost.

All of the lessons are correlated with the national Personal Finance Standards and the National Standards in Economics. (See the Lesson Correlation section for more information.) This content from Econ Lowdown also features alignment to national Financial Literacy and/or Economics standards.
