This site was developed
to provide teachers with a full range of resources and
activities to support the teaching of landmark Supreme Court
cases, helping students explore the key issues of each case.
The "Resources" section features basic building blocks such as
background summaries and excerpts of opinions that can be used
in multiple ways. The "Activities" section contains a range of
short activities and in-depth lessons that can be completed
with students. While these activities are online, many of them
can be adapted for use in a one-computer classroom or a
classroom with no computer.
Depending upon the amount of time you have to teach the
case, you may want to use one or more of the "Resources"
or "Activities" in conjunction with one or more of the general
teaching strategies. These general teaching strategies include
moot court activities, political cartoon analysis, continuum
exercises, and Web site evaluation.
