What is migration uncertainty? How do people decide where to migrate to? And how does expert knowledge on migration translate into policy alternatives? These are just a few of the questions that students will explore in the new Migration & Migration Uncertainty teaching materials. Over the five lessons, not only will students examine global migration patterns, but they will also dive deeply into the dynamics at play in a singular country and compare their findings with those of their peers. The students will also learn to appreciate the high level of migration uncertainty and the challenges it poses for research and policy.
In the teaching material pack, teachers will find: (1) a 15-page teaching guide to make preparing and teaching the lessons easy and smooth, (2) a 30-page workbook that guides students through the exercises and (3) a set of slides for each lesson that include graphs, key terms, exercises and step-by-step instructions for the math exercises. The teaching materials are modular, meaning that the lessons can be used in sets of 1, 3 or 5 with different focuses such as on the policy aspect of migration or on the reasons why someone might migrate.
