Thinking boxes (accessible version)

Analyse an object or topic from different perspectives - local, global and its place in history.

Step 1. Firstly, describe the object in as much detail as possible. When you have done this, move on to step 2

Step 2. Next, describe what that object means to you. When you have done this, move on to step 3

Step 3. Now, think about how the object affects things on a local level. Describe this in detail. When you have done this, move on to step 4

Step 4. Now describe how the object affects things globally (i.e. all around the world.) When you have done this, move on to step 5

Step 5. Now explain how the object may have been different in the past. When you have done this, move on to step 6

Step 6. Finally, describe how the object may be different in the future.

Once all these steps have been finished, your assignment is complete.
