Teachers should decide which method they wish students to follow.
Time allotment for this lesson is the main decision variable.
- The "Background Exploration" page provides a brief summary of LGBT Rights history. After reading through this cursory narrative, students can move directly into primary source analysis and then complete the lesson activities. This version of the lesson can be completed more quickly and focuses on student responses.
- The second version of the lesson entails a more detailed presentation of the historical narrative. The "Background Exploration" page contains a series of links, which offer in-depth learning for different historical moments and ideas. Taking the time to explore any or all of this more thorough historical narrative will give students a greater understanding and exploration of these topics before moving into primary source analysis and activity completion.
