• This lesson introduces students to the most recent stage of the conflict in Kosovo by allowing them to examine the positions and actions of various key figures (people, countries, and organizations). Students will then, on an ongoing basis, read and analyze newspaper articles and continue to update the class on their key figures’ views and actions.

• Based on a New York Times article that explains how photographs of Albanian refugees have influenced feelings towards NATO’s actions in the Balkans, students choose a Times photograph and write a brief essay explaining what they think is happening in the photograph and how it makes them feel. Students will then select and analyze photographs depicting events in the Balkans and create a news photo exhibit.

• Students will discuss the current crisis in Kosovo, Yugoslavia and express their views on whether the U.S. should get involved in this foreign conflict. Students will write a journal entry about whether governments should risk the lives of their soldiers in foreign conflicts. Students will read the New York Times article, "U.S. Intensifies Threat to Use Force Against Serbs" and then participate a class discussion on the article’s contents and issues.

• Students reflect on the responsibility of newspapers to act as a vehicle for "everyday citizens" to voice their opinions. Then, using an article to gain factual information about government strategies in dealing with the current events in Kosovo, students develop Voices articles modeled after those found in The New York Times.
