Building Our Best Future. Thinking Critically About Ourselves and Our World - Student edition

      Аннотация: We all wonder what our future holds. Some people are satisfied just to wait and see what happens. Others understand that they can play a major role in shaping their own future — they don’t need to just wait and let it happen to them. Building your own future means making lots of decisions — many small ones and some big ones. Some decisions are just about your own life. Others involve the community you live in, your country, and even the whole world. In history classes, you learn about the decisions individuals and countries have made in the past and the consequences of those decisions. In other social studies classes you also learn about the decisions that have become laws and affect how people live today in your local area and in your country. But you often lack time in these classes to think about decisions regarding the future. How might the choices and decisions that we live with today be different? How could we make them better?
