The first part of the SINCE 9/11 Citizenship programme of six lesson plans. This stage develops students’ understanding of terrorism and terrorists. The students look at a stereotype of a terrorist and compare this to the reality, before discussing some of the problems associated with stereotyping in this way. They then come up with their own definitions of terrorism and compare these to a range of other “formal” definitions. They go on to explore the distinction between terrorist and non-terrorist acts by applying the definitions to various scenarios involving protests, government repression and terrorism.
