Critical Thinking & Problem Solving
The teacher models 3 distinct short documentary approaches (chronological journey, day-in-the-life, and problem–solution) using clips and a visual narrative arc map. Students identify how each structure highlights conflict, community impact, and economic justice themes differently. Teams discuss how structure influences audience understanding of their chosen hero’s story.
