A fantastically animated ten minute video on the history of human rights from ancient to modern times. I've used this video to introduce the topic many times and students always respond well to it.
How it maps to the curriculum
- SC
- Politics & Society
Strand: 6. Human Rights+Responsibilities: Wider World
Strand unit: 1. Rights in Wider World
Suggestions for use: I use this at the very beginning of teaching about the legal system and human rights. I ask students to take down what they feel are the key markers and legal documents in the development of human rights throughout history.
