Good response from kids. Keeping in mind that it is not an entertainment title, the kids liked it. Some loved it. "It shows us the truth about being fair." "It's interesting, smart and logical." "It's flashy and exciting." "It made me think about accidents and things like that." "It made me think about when I wrote bad things to my sister." One word - judging. It made me think about that." "I like students being involved in making decisions."
Good presentation, shows lots of different kids who speak out about what they think is fair or not fair. Wonderful and real discussion about what is fair. Looks at lots of possible sides of different problems. Good scenarios, interviews, questions and answers. All showing differing opinions and points of view. Very positive. Shows how to handle problems in ways that are fair to all. Student are very participatory in the show. Great pace. Great visuals. Hopefully, when a child finishing viewing this, they will have a new perspective about fairness. One of the show's greatest strengths is its ability to discuss the topic in ways that are relevant and engaging to upper elementary and middle school age students. Strong production values.
Fairness, one of the six pillars of character, is presented through the point of view of a middle school blogger named Chloe. In the video, Chloe presents some teen discussions and two documentaries in her exploration of fairness.
