Persuasive Devices Life Skills Program

This unit is designed to have students think critically and use the strategies taught to form a balanced argument and counter-argument. The theme of Sustainability and Climate Change runs throughout the entirety with students producing a visual letter to someone in power asking them to think about an issue they feel powerfully about. Via this citizenship approach, students are encouraged to recognise not only the persuasive powers of others, but also acknowledge and empower their own persuasive thinking and reasoning.
