From Classroom Teachers | General strategies for using clip
Campaign specific List the specific places, events and people Sec. Rumsfeld gives to support his case. Discuss the strategy of using the war on terror in the campaign. How can it help the Bush campaign? On the other hand, could it be politically dangerous? How would Democratic nominee John Kerry address the same issues? Ralph Nader?
Media literacy The newspaper articles refer to comments Sec. Rumsfeld made during the question and answer portion of the event. The clip shows a portion of the opening remarks. Describe the content of the articles as compared to the content in the clip. How is the aim of the reporters different than that of the speaker? What questions would you have asked if you were a member of the press at this event?
More ideas Consider other days/events that have marked a change
in history: Magna Carta, Russian Revolution, Invention of Cotton
Gin, Kennedy's assasination, your birthday-what was life like before and after? OR Discuss
America's role in the world. What should the goals of America's
foreign policy be? Is there a candidate with whom you agree?
