Do you ever feel truly free... or do you feel that everyone and everything is out to control you? Wouldn't it be great to be able to do what you want, when you want, and how you want everyday-- or would it? In this studio, you will be investigating how the belief in freedom was a driving force in the settlement of the New World and how that belief continues to this day; however, does freedom come with responsibilities that prevent you from being truly free? To find your answer, let's take a trip back in time...
To the left is our West Ada Academies Learning Cycle. This course is designed with content that fits into one of five categories: Engage, Explore, Practice, Apply, and Reflect. You will move through the stages of the learning cycle as you engage in the studio's driving questions, and then learn, practice, and apply the target skills listed above. When you get to the apply stage, you will showcase your learning or use another method to show what you can do or what you know. Finally, at each Milestone and again at the end of the studio, you will reflect on your project and what you have learned.
