Publisher's Synopsis
Each project in this book contains pacing guides and detailed rubrics designed to guide learners through the process and evaluate their performance (according to Common Core and National standards). All of these projects, regardless of the objectives, essential questions, or standards they address, are devised to help turn the public servant's service into something that can genuinely inspire learners to develop critical thinking abilities.
