The document describes the Jigsaw model of teaching which involves preparing students in expert groups to teach material to their home groups. It also discusses using 2008 election presentations, including debates and posters, to teach curriculum from either a behaviorist or constructivist perspective. Students would learn to use technology to research and present information, gaining academic and social benefits from participating as both learners and presenters while the teacher acts as a facilitator.
