Project Learning Goals


The initial idea of this project revolves around the nature of our leaders in and outside school. The essence is to get the learners to analyze  and present a short skit to the community showing why and how leaders at virtually all levels fall short of people's expectations and how they can and should be helped to become better leaders.
Curriculum objectives/Goals
ü  to read, understand and explain the causes of bad leadership as shown in the play Betrayal in the City.
ü  To analyze the Character of the leaders from the grass roots to the last man/ top man in the Play Betrayal in the City  and to evaluate the reasons the playwright comes up with to justify their actions.
ü  Dramatize the most revealing sections of incompetence and inefficiency of leaders in the play.
ü  Design a play to incorporate all ideas about leadership and how leaders should/ and can be helped in their leadership roles.

21st Century Skills
ü  Critical thinking and problem solving.
ü  Communication and collaboration.
ü  Research.  
ü  Creativity and innovation.

Higher order thinking skills
ü  Analyzing.
ü  Evaluating.
ü  Creating.
ü  Applying.

Way forward
I will get the students to view the play first and carry out a class discussion. I will then get them to observe their own student leaders within the school, some of the leaders from the local communities and top Government leaders. They will then carry on more research, make their own decisions as a team, share tasks and create a finished product. I will be there to guide and motivate them.
The project is all about getting to realize and understand why and how leaders betray the trust of the people, and how these leaders should/ and can be helped to change for the better. The learners will come up with  ideas to share with the rest of the school community to create awareness and provide solutions too.
