Process

  1. In partners or groups of 3, you will visit at least 3 of the following web pages each and read about self-esteem.
  2. Some things to look for while navigating in the web pages are the meaning of self-esteem, the difference between positive and negative self-esteem, the benefits of positive self-esteem, analyze if you tend to have positive self-esteem, and how can one gain positive self-esteem.
  3. Once you have finished looking into your 3 web pages, return to your group and discuss what you have learned.
  4. Write a 1-2 page report on what you have learned. 
  5. Share your findings with the class.

Choose at least 3 of the following web pages:

Dove Campaign For Real Beauty

Kids Helpline, "Self-Esteem"

Now that you have finished looking into your 3 web pages and discussed your findings in your group, it is time to write your report.

Before you begin writing, take some time to do some pre-writing.  Take a moment to brainstorm and organize your thoughts.  Some things you might want to think over are the meaning of self-esteem, the difference between positive and negative self-esteem, the benefits of positive self-esteem, analyze if you tend to have positive self-esteem, and how can one gain positive self-esteem. 

Also, evaluate the web pages that you visited.  Was the information valuable? Would you recommend this web page to others?

 

After taking some time to organize your thoughts, write a 1-2 page report on what you have learned.  Include in your report a section on what you learned about your own self-esteem.  Also include a section on what you thought about the web pages you visited and if you would recommend others to visit them.  Refer back to the rubric to make sure your report is on the right track.
