Within this constant are a million unique stories of challenge and change. Investigating the broad range of people and stories which make up the population, offers the invaluable opportunity to understand cultural diversity and a vivid framework in which to position ourselves and our own family histories. Through interactive exercises, primary source material, role playing and more, this unit helps students gain insight into turn-of-the-century and present day people's migration to a new land and a new way of life through the eyes of immigrants. | |
