Here is my "schtick:" Start with an Advance Organizer. For example, I would give each student a country to represent before we learn about Nuclear Proliferation: USA, China, Israel, Pakistan, India, UK, France, Russia, etc We would then learn about Nuclear Proliferation using a power point and guided notes. Students can ask questions as a representative of their country (right hand up), or as a representative of their own brain (left hand up) When we get to the present, we have a mock UN style debate regarding current Nuclear Proliferation topics, where students represent their assigned country.
