Lesson+3

**Human Rights Declaration**
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, was adoped by the General Assembly of the United Nations on 10 December 1948.

Your tasks for this lesson are to:
 * 1) Watch the clip on the Universal Declaration of Human Rights
 * 2) Visit the United Nations site for the [|Universal Declaration of Human Rights]and the [|Youth for Human Rights]site
 * 3) Complete the work sheet below.
 * 4) There are two ways to complete the worksheet:
 * 5) Save the Word Doc to the computer, complete the sheet by typing in your answers, then 'Save As' into your folder. You can then print off your completed sheet and hand into me or you can e-mail it as an attachment to alison.taylor@student.canberra.edu.au
 * 6) Print off the blank Word Doc and complete the sheet by hand then submit to me. Remember, if you are writing by hand make sure that your writing is readable.
 * 7) Post a message on the discussion board about the clip you have just watched answering the following questions. What was your feeling after watching the video clip on the Declaration of Human Rights? Do you think that it was a good way to present the ideas behind the declaration? Think about the visual animations of the articles and how they are written. Your posting should be between 20-50 words. You can find the discussion page by clicking on the 'discussion' tab at the top of the page.
 * 8) Once you have completed the worksheet and posted a message on the discussion page, if you have time you may wish to start thinking about and looking at images that you think represent the various articles in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. This will help with your creative task in the next lesson. Watching some of the ads on the [|Youth for Human Rights International]site may help with this.



I hope enjoy learning about the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its importance. Be prepared for next class with any questions or comments you might have thought of during this lesson.
