2040 - Finding Out About 2040

In this lesson, students will be immersed in and connect with the documentary film 2040. Students begin by exploring and defining key concepts and challenges from the 2040 documentary. They then work in groups in a class jigsaw activity to analyse one particular challenge and then share their conclusions with the class. Working in the same groups, students will then participate in a brainstorm activity to generate solutions to their challenge, again sharing these with the class. Students are provided with scaffolding to enhance their viewing and reflecting on the 2040 documentary film.
