Students will launch an investigation into how movement has shaped food systems and health in Oceania and Hawaiʻi by examining maps, visual evidence, and paired primary and secondary sources.

Students will investigate a selected Oceanian island nation by annotating geographic evidence, comparing related primary and secondary sources, and developing a focused question about movement, food systems, and health. They will then design and peer-review a manageable research method that guides evidence collection for their five-paragraph essay and solution-focused infographic.

Students will analyze varied geographic and historical evidence, draft a five-paragraph essay, and transform their conclusions into a solution-focused infographic. They will challenge interpretations, document limitations, compare their selected Oceanian island nation with Hawaiʻi, and revise both products through structured peer feedback.

Students will present their final Oceania research products to an authentic audience, exchange evidence-focused feedback, make a final revision, and reflect on connections to Hawaiʻi.
