1 Lesson from a series of 28 lessons on UAE Social Studies (History). Each lesson contained keywords and a wide range of activities, with a focus on developing skills that students can use in their regular lessons too. A key focus is obviously on Historical skills, but also Geographic, Business as well as general skills of research, debate and presentation. Several lessons have been inspired by lectures given at the NYU Abu Dhabi by experts in their fields.
The lessons begin with the formation of the Arabian landmass and end with the Arabs on Mars! Fairly comprehensive history. All lessons have been made with cultural sensitivities in mind.
The lessons are:
