This guide is prepared with high school students in mind, but can be adapted for other age groups. We will feature one article for classroom use each month. Back issues, beginning in May 1997, contain a Teachers' Guide. Teachers with access to computer labs should encourage students to access the article directly online.
Students have our permission to print out a copy of the article for classroom use.
We encourage you and your students to subscribe to the print edition of St. Anthony Messenger, where you will see all of the graphics, and more articles that you might find useful on a variety of topics. To provide your teenage students with an experience of communicating religious values in a selected media venue. The author of this month's article describes two religious leaders who are finding innovative and heretofore unusual ways to communicate religious values and perspective, through radio, cable and broadcast television. You can provide teens with an enjoyable exercise in which they have an opportunity to duplicate the model offered by the rabbi and the priest. After the class has had the chance to read the article, you may wish to have a preliminary discussion about it.
