For this assignment, students were asked a series of open-ended questions relating to the Civil Rights Movement. Students scanned QR Codes, which took them directly to the assignment. The prompts allowed students to think critically, while investigating what the Civil Rights Movement was, and predict how the events in To Kill a Mockingbird would have been different if the Civil Rights Movement had occurred prior to the setting of the book. While researching, students were only allowed to use Sweet Search, a site that searches for only credible sources. Questions included: Who was Martin Luther King Jr? What was the Civil Rights Movement? Using specific examples from To Kill a Mockingbird, consider how the portrayal and treatment of African American people may have been different if the Civil Rights Movement had occurred before the events in the novel took place.
