Description:

This Kusasa module is about the consequences of our actions and the implications of our thinking.

You probably understand that your actions have consequences. If you work hard you do well, if you slack off you do... not so well. That’s called ’cause and effect’ and it’s important that you know how to act to get the results you want.

It’s just as important to understand that what you think has implications - and they work a lot like consequences. Everything you think implies something else.

For instance, if you think that it’s wrong to shoplift, then you also have to think that it’s wrong to pirate music - because they’re both stealing! Or maybe you think human life is sacred, no matter what. That implies that you disagree with the death penalty.

Does that make sense? Don’t worry if it doesn’t. After this lesson you will understand how to see the consequences of your actions and the implications of your thinking.

About Kusasa project:

Kusasa, a new educational resource for teachers and learners everywhere. Kusasa aims to develop analytical and creative thinking in learners, and more effective teaching practices in educators.

Kusasa includes character role models, experiments, simple computer modelling and carefully-sequenced lesson plans. These come together to provide a richly interactive environment in which learners imitate the Kusasa role models as they undertake their simple classroom experiments and solve their computer modelling problems.

With development now complete and the project closed, the Foundation is pleased to make all the resources available to the world. On this site you can now read all Kusasa Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and instructional stories. Alternatively you can download all stories as well as eToys projects. Complete lesson modules (which require the installation of LAMS) can also be downloaded from the site.
