Okay, Class I will post the pictures on Yes, Ma’am

the board then I will call several
students to guess the words.

Are you ready class?

In the previous module, you have gained understanding of
sources of social, cultural, and political change. With this
knowledge, you will have a full grasp of why societies change, and
what are the coping mechanisms of humanities in order to
respond to the fast-changing society. Also, it is important to note
that you as a member of society are able to prepare yourself to
cope up to those changes because coping mechanism are based
on societal/individual identities.

Teacher: Before we proceed to our discussion for today, let us first

have a short game. The game will be called “4 Pics One Word”. Are
you familiar with that game? Okay, Class I will post the pictures

Lesson Starts

Teacher: There are several new challenges that human

populations face in contemporary societies. These challenges can
be categorized into five types: social, economic, environmental,
political, and cultural.

Teacher:
For social challenges, we have issues like
 Poverty
 Inequality
 social exclusion.
Economic challenges
 Unemployment
 low wages
 inflation.
Environmental challenges
  climate change
 deforestation
 pollution
Political challenges
 conflicts
 terrorism
 corruption
Cultural challenges
 identity
 diversity
 tolerance

Teacher: The impact of these challenges can be felt at different

levels. For example, poverty affects individuals by limiting their
access to basic needs like food, shelter, and education. It also
affects communities and nations by hindering economic growth
and development.

Teacher: The causes of these challenges are complex and varied,

ranging from human activities to external factors like climate
change.
B. Generalization Teacher: So, based on my discussion what do you think are some
of the challenges that you are experiencing now? Can you site
some challenges?

Student 1: Climate change

Student 2: Poverty
Teacher: Great, those are all important challenges. Now, let's take Student 3: Mental health issues
a closer look at some new challenges faced by human populations Student 4: Political Issue
in contemporary societies.

I will flash some pictures and take notes on any new challenges
you learn about.

(Students work on their activity)

 Teacher: Now that you have seen the different challenges faced by
human population, choose one challenge from those issues and
share your opinion on how are you going to approach it if you are
going to face that same challenge in your life.
(Student 1 shares his/her

add or any questions? solution

Teacher: Artificial intelligence can certainly bring many benefits,

but it also poses some challenges, such as the potential for job
loss.

Teacher: That's a very important issue. Plastic pollution is a major

challenge that we need to address in contemporary societies. Who
else learned something new about their chosen challenge?

Teacher: Yes, social media can have both positive and negative
impacts on mental health. It's important for us to be aware of
these impacts and use social media in a responsible and healthy
way.

Teacher: Overall, it's clear that there are many new challenges
faced by human populations in contemporary societies. It's
important for us to be aware of these challenges and work
towards addressing them.

Developmental Activity

Ask students to create a multimedia presentation or essay

exploring possible solutions to a contemporary challenge faced by
human populations. Encourage them to use different media
formats like video, audio, and images to present their research
findings and analysis of the challenge. They can also provide their
opinion and suggestions for addressing these challenges. This
activity can help students develop their critical thinking skills,
creativity, and advocacy skills.
