STEP 1: General Research
1. Complete the first side of the refugee web quest hand out by exploring the first two links in the information sources tab. These two links can be found under "Web Quest Worksheet Sources". They will take you to the UN websites to find the answers to questions 1-8.
STEP 2: Choose a Refugee Group to Research
2. Select a refugee group that you would like to research: Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Mali, Sudan, The Democratic Republic of Congo, or Afghanistan. Your options can be found in the information sources tab. Click on the page for your refugee group to start your research.
STEP 3: Collect Evidence for C.E.C-Con Prompt
3. After you have selected a refugee group, explore the pictures, graphs, maps and articles on the site. Feel free to print out the articles to highlight evidence or take notes. Find evidence that will help answer the big question: Why does this group of refugees need assistance? As well as what type of assistance or resources do they most need?
Cite Evidence from at least TWO articles and one map. This evidence will be used for your C.E.C-Con.

STEP 4: Complete the C.E.C-Con Prompt

The big question to answer is: Which refugees need assistance, why they need it and what type of resources do they need most? (ex. humanitarian, military, financial)
To complete this step, you must have a claim, 3 evidence pieces from your research, a link that connects your evidence back to the your claim and a conclusion.

STEP 5: Write a C.E.C-Con Paragraph

(ex. humanitarian, military, financial) Also include the vocabulary words that are listed at the top of the C.E.C-Con prompt sheet. The conclusion will restate the claim, but also suggest HOW the refugees will get the help they need and WHO will help them.
