World Migration Education Toolkit
The World Migration Education Toolkit is an up-to-date set of resources for educators to teach about migration, migrants and human geography. It draws upon the extensive research and analysis in the World Migration Report series to deliver specialized tools and resources. Divided into two parts, part one addresses the foundational questions in migration studies. Part two explores a range of thematic topics in migration across several modules. The modules are tailored to and accessible for a secondary-level human geography course.
Within each module, the educator will find a set of resources which can be applied within the classroom to spur student learning on the topic. These include:
- Resource guides – Short briefs which compile the research and analysis on the topic and provide some starter questions to check for understanding and begin discussion. An excellent starter piece for a lesson.
- Case studies – In-depth studies of migration topics for extending student thinking. Divided into text case studies and data case studies, these allow the student to see how concepts are applied in specific regional contexts.
- Interactive scenarios – The core of the curriculum, these interactive activities allow students to engage in migration concepts in a role-playing situation based on a real world scenario.
