Common Threads is an ongoing project of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation. The first project explored "Globalization, sweatshops, and the clothes we wear", and traveled to the Maquilas in Guatemala. The second project was "From Canada to South Africa; Combating HIV/AIDS", and explored the impact of HIV/AIDS on the schools in South Africa. The most recent project explored the World Water Crisis in the face of globalization and privatization of water. The team traveled to Bolivia. Each project includes a Video or DVD, and a CD containing teacher resources and units of study. Distributed to every public high school in Ontario at no cost, they now are available through OSSTF on-line, great resources for Global Education. Get ideas and unit activities; share ideas these valuable resources in your school. |
