This teaching guide for high school students on the use of nonviolent resistance by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr., incorporates active student participation through classroom activities and library research. After completing the suggested activities, students will be able to write an essay comparing and contrasting the lives and accomplishments of Gandhi and King, particularly showing the role of nonviolence in their movements. The unit can be completed in two weeks if library research is incorporated. One week should be allowed if handouts and/or information from a classroom textbook are used. After an introductory classroom discussion, students use a bibliography and worksheets to answer questions about the lives and activities of Gandhi and King, and to compile lists of quotations both by and about them. Half of the class researches Gandhi; the other half researches King. After the individual student research has been completed, the class compiles a list of similarities and differences between the two men. Additional activities include: (1) making a collage of sketches illustrating the life of one or both men; (2) making a political cartoon about each; and (3) making a map showing the world arena in which they operated. A copy of the one-page student worksheet and the 16-item student bibliography are included. Teacher's materials include the following: (1) completed worksheets for both Gandhi and King; (2) a list of ideals for the followers of Gandhi and of King; (3) lists of representative quotations from each.
