Teaching idea for Tuesday
Here's an idea that might help students get into a comparative frame of mind.Labor Day in the US is recognized at the end of summer.
When do the countries students are about to begin studying celebrate a "Labor Day?"
Why do each of these countries choose the date of their "Labor Days?"
What do those choices tell us about politics and political culture in each country?
Assign a couple or three students to find the answer for each country (or make it a small group project).
Throw out the question as an extra credit project.
