Origins of a Western Worldview: Renaissance Europe - A Mind Mapping Experience

This lesson is intended as a culminating activity for a unit on worldviews. At the end of this lesson, students will be able to identify threads of continuity and change between Renaissance and present day worldviews — historical worldviews versus present Canadian worldviews — as well as causes and consequences that led to changes in world view. Utilizing a mind map graphic organizer, students work through a series of activities to help them make these connections.
