  • 13th (TVMA – 2016)

    I used this resource with my Sociology class while watching the documentary 13th on Netflix. It was incredibly helpful, as it provided pause points throughout the film with questions that guided student thinking and discussion. This approach worked much better for my students than trying to recall everything after the documentary ended.
